2 months

Happy 2 months of marriage to my far better half.  He has shown me so much love and patience in these 2 months. Here's to a lifetime more.

High Five for Friday!

1. 19 days until I am here (enough said):

Vail, CO

2. Hubs is traveling a lot for work these days. Even though I miss him a ton during the week, I am so proud of him and thankful that he has a job that provides for us. Nothing sweeter than coming home from a long day of class to find this on my bathroom mirror. It's the little things y'all (and I sure do love him).

3. We made spaghetti squash for dinner one night this week. It was delicious! And I was in awe of how the squash literally falls apart like spaghetti noodles. God is so creative! We made a homemade meat sauce to go on top and it was so yummy and healthy!

4. Saturday night we are making the trek West to celebrate our friends Greg and Morgan! They were both in our wedding party and now they are getting married Nov. 1 and Garrett and I are in theirs! Greg and Garrett were teammates at Carolina and Morgan and I have been inseparable since they started dating. We can't wait to shower them Saturday!

5. It's almost embarrassing how boring my day-to-day life is. I literally study every free second of every day. Therefore, watching The Bachelor is the highlight of my [most every] week. Sad, I know. It's my guilty pleasure. I am not a big tv watcher but I am always a Bachelor/Bachelorette fan... maybe it's because I realize how ridiculously stupid it is, I don't know. Anyways, I had a pharmacology exam Tuesday morning so watching The Bach was NOT happening Monday night. So all day Tuesday I looked forward to getting into bed early and watching it, and it did not disappoint :) Once again, it's the little things!

"Gone to Carolina in my mind"

As I sit here studying EKG's and heart murmurs, I can't help but reminisce on the last 4 years of my life. You see, there is a HUGE basketball game tonight (if you don't know what game I'm talking about, you must not be from NC). In 45 minutes I will put away my school work and be glued to the television to cheer on my beloved TARHEELS! My dad took my husband but didn't invite me... that's when you know you have officially been replaced.

My dad attended Carolina for 12 years... undergrad, dental school, and orthodontic school. From the time I could talk I was cheering for the heels and knew there was no other school I wanted to attend for undergrad. When I got my acceptance letter I cried like a baby. And the day I moved into my dorm in Chapel Hill is the day I went on my 1st date with my husband. So this baby blue heaven really does have a special place in my heart.

Head basketball coach, Roy Williams and dad

That amazing moment when UNC beats Duke and I am there to witness it. Praying this happens again tonight. #GDTBATH #goheels!

Wednesday wants!

I'M BAAAACK! Sorry to my poor blog... but I was off getting married, honeymooning, and being a newlywed (and trying to survive school). Posts on all these exciting things to come soon! For now, a few things I am loving/wanting!

Alex and Ani bracelet! I love these so much. They are perfect to wear every day to spice up any outfit. I want my hub's "Blue zircon" December birthstone because he is my favorite and, well, it's just a pretty color ;)

Since we just built a new house, we have been decorating little by little. We have SO FAR to go but it has come a long way. We have an interior designer coming next week to help us pick out fabric/rugs/accessories (I do NOT have an eye for this type of thing). Our bedroom is the 1 room that is almost 100% complete. All we are missing is a bookshelf. I want one mainly for picture frames and accessories/gadgets. Loving this one from Pottery Barn.

With spring right around the corner, I want to get furniture for our back deck ASAP! We have a big fenced-in backyard for Bella to run around and I foresee many nights spent on our deck grilling out. I am loving this couch from PB (surprise, surprise).

My cousin Rob plays baseball for the Milwaukee Brewers and one of his teammate's wives has a jewelry business on the side. Rob's wife, Katie, wears her bracelets all the time and every time I see her I say I am going to order some of them. Well I really am going to soon! I want a clear, black, turquoise, and maybe another funky color. Look her up on Facebook: Couture Jems

I am dying for a new pair of TB flats. I wear mine like no other. They are darn expensive but WORTH IT. I cannot find another brand that fits my foot like they do. Not to mention, they are classic and timeless. I have nude ones that I have worn so much that they barely stay on my foot when I walk. I am thinking these babies will be the next pair I splurge on.

Happy Wednesday!
