4. My love.
5. Family portrait. 

Here's some fun things I am going to share about my life:

This ice cream place isn't that fancy, but we always like to stop here when we go to Gulf Shores.  So it carries fond memories for me.  (shout out to nostalgia)

I love to capture memories with my loved ones. (so shout out to me)

We took a pretty awesome family picture. (nailing it. shout out to the fiancé for taking this for us)


We spent the day driving around Gulf Shores for Mother's Day since the weather was so lovely.  My dad is in town for the week so it's nice having him around since we don't get to see him that often with his work schedule.  My parents are THE best.  They lead well, love well, and make me laugh hard at stories of when we were little.  I'm beginning to appreciate these kind of days the older I get and hope there are many more to come.

Until next time...

four years.

Life has been a whirlwind of emotions.  If you're anything like me, you get it.  You do. 
At times I feel like a total fraud - we are all just figuring it out day to day - we all have our insecurities and our major short comings but are so rarely open about it - I so often feel like I don't know what the hell I'm doing… like I've tricked everyone into thinking I do.  I've been feeling pretty off lately but I'm so thankful for my family, friends, and mostly Andrew.  Life can kick you so hard in the booty sometimes.  But recently (as always) life and it's little joys open up its arms and hug me when I need it most.  

This one… Still gives me butterflies when he walks into the room.  Makes me laugh no matter how grumpy I am.  Always asks me what I want, even though he knows I can't ever make up my mind.  Four years since he asked me on our first date and I fall more madly in love with him each passing day.  So we decided to take Scotty to New Orleans for his first time and it was a much needed escape for us as well.  

I hope everyone else had a great weekend also.

Until next time...
