Catching Up

It never fails, as much as I try to stay in the routine of blogging, somehow it always falls off my list of priorities. It has almost been five months since I've written and a lot has happened since then. 

I don't want to forget any of the moments I've had since the last time I blogged. And in June I didn't really do a recap of what had been going on. 

So to get everything down...

May - Jason and I went on our first vacation together. We went to Seattle and Oregon and it was absolutely wonderful and we didn't kill each other after spending a week together. So that was a success. I traveled a lot in May for pleasure and for work. May was a difficult month for me and one I don't think I'll ever forget. 

June - more travels for work, this time to Florida...I wish I could say Florida was awesome, it wasn't. It was hot and humid. The end. 

July - more hot here in Texas. We went to the Symphony Pops concert for the 4th. Jason had never been, so it was a ton of fun. June and July are both a blur as we were so busy during these months

August - mine and daddy's birthday month. Jason showered me with presents all month long and we ended the month with a trip to Fredericksburg with my parents. 

September - I sold my house. That's a pretty big thing but it was the close of a chapter in my life that was time to be over. I made some pretty big mistakes this month and said a lot of things I wish I could take back, but I can't. Just having faith that God restores. 

October - travels for work, vacation, and we got engaged. We spent the 2nd week of work at a conference in Virginia for my work and then spent some vacation time. We explored Shenandoah National Forest and went to Bush gardens..more amazing times with Jason. It is such a blessing to be engaged and going to spend the rest of my life with someone who I can spend day in and day out with and we never let the little things become big things. And he keeps me smiling. We also took engagement pictures which was a ton of fun. 

And that brings us to November.  These last several months brought a lot of heartache, a lot of laughter, a ton of love, a lot of travel, a lot of volunteer time but mostly a reminder that this life I live is truly blessed, and I need to remember that more often. 

I hope that I can find some more time in my day to sit down and write out our adventures and share my thoughts.
