Thankful Thursday

Hello and welcome back! I don't know why, but I insist on welcoming all of my readers (probably just one reader, my sister, Rachel Grace) in every post. I guess because in all of the blogs I read, the blogger does the same thing to their actual audience. Oh well! A girl can dream...

Today is Thankful Thursday! Let's get right down to it!

  1. Being off work for a week starting tomorrow and having family visit!
  2. Getting some really exciting news from two of my closest friends last night!!!! 
  3. Getting our pool up and running!
  4. My health and safety- I also got some incredibly heartbreaking news last night about another dear friend. 
  5. Our sovereign God. No matter the situation, He is in control. 
I hope you have a wonderful 4th of July tomorrow! Let's all be grateful for what we have been blessed with. Gratitude is one of the most important ways to be happy. Its effects are almost immediate. So, with that being said, enjoy this long weekend. Be thankful for what you have. Don't take it for granted. 

Thank you for stopping by!

Spring Has Me Writing Again πŸŒΌπŸ’›

  It has been a while, but I am back! It is so nice to be typing here again. After a busy fall, a holiday season that didn't slow down for a minute, and the harshest winter I've ever lived through, I finally feel like I can breathe, and write, again. I will do a quick recap of my life and then explain my plans for the future of this blog.  So, since my last post was in October, life has been full. Here's a little peek at what's been happening behind the scenes: 1. My cousin's wedding was a success! It was beautiful and now they are actually pregnant!!! I can't wait to meet their baby girl.  2. Thomas and I were fortunate to be a part of our friends' engagement that took place in Boston in December! It was so much fun celebrating the two of them and surprising the bride to be! Now I am excited to help her plan their wedding for next year! 3. I'm changing my career from retail pharmacy to hospital inpatient pharmacy! I start in exactly 3 weeks from today. ...

April So Far + New Things!

  Hello reader, and welcome back! I am so glad you're here today! Just a quick recap on what's new with me... I had the best birthday week ever, my new job is great so far, and I have been working out more than ever. I am feeling content and accomplished. What a combo, right?! I'll share some pics of this month so far below! Myrtle Beach Airport! Enjoying iced coffee on the screened in porch! We had perfect weather every day that week in Myrle Beach I've been going to Trader Joes once a week now for the last few weeks, they have the best quick lunches! Thomas and I on our way to enjoy restaurant week in Portsmouth! (yes I'm wearing a turtle neck because we had 40 degree weather that day -_-) This has been me lately. Regina and my yarn in my lap every evening.  Regina and Joey love to get in the Bible Okay, so there are my little moments from the month so far. Since it is Monday, the beginning of the work week, I want to talk about new beginnings.  I love new things ...

My Thoughts on a Random Tuesday πŸ’•

  Today I am writing about something that makes me happy. I am pregnant with my first child, a son. I am going to be a mom, I will have a newborn in only 5 months. I can’t believe it! Pregnancy has been quite the experience. I can honestly say it is the most personally humbling experience I have gone through so far. I love him so much already, and I can’t wait to finally hold him. March 31 cannot get here soon enough.  We are having the most beautiful fall in Portsmouth so far. Even though I spent the first part of fall in my first trimester, not able to enjoy any fall foods/drinks/treats, I am getting to finally enjoy them at the tail end of things. I am enjoying coffee a lot more now, a safe amount, of course! We attended a Halloween party last weekend, and since I am working Halloween weekend, that was it for me! I feel like I am now entering Christmas mode. I love Christmas so much. I have Great American Christmas Movie channel on the tv at all times, I am trying to slowly...
