Love is a WONDERFUL Thing!

To be loved and know that you are is
ONE of the greatest gifts
God has given to us. It makes each
day, whether good or bad,
become wonderful despite circumstances.
It brings sunshine to cloudy
days, and warmth to a chilly day. It
gives wings to a heart, and
allows one to believe that they are
special in someone's eyes.

I am SO THANKFUL for the amazing
man that I will be marrying
in a few short months. What a gift and
joy he is to my life!!!

These are the roses he brought me a while back.
I love drying roses, and then I decided to
pose my ring on it to make a cool picture.

Thank you so much, Adam, for your love
and all the things you give to me
to show me that love!

Just for Fun: Our House

So I find wedding registries super annoying when you are going out looking for something to by for a shower. Either it's not in the store or too expensive (which EVERYTHING today is!). Therefore, I am writing this note for everyone to have an idea of what I like and not have to wonder...


The stores I am registering at are Bed, Bath, & Beyond; Target; & Walmart.

  • Bed, Bath, & Beyond - comforter set, dinning ware set, keurig, keurig accessories, shower curtain, hooks, liner, and two kitchen appliances
  • Target - Bathroom accessories, decorations, kitchen utensils, and other house hold items
  • Walmart - odds and ends that are not sooo expensive :)

Here is a breakdown of each room:

Living Room

  • walls - aqua
  • furniture - black and white
  • accents - black and white, and a little pink; maybe red
  • black and white pictures of different travels of Adam and I & my photography in black frames
  • willow tree figurines
  • love candles

Kitchen

  • Cafe Theme!!!!
  • brown walls with accents of dark green, dark red, and a latte color
  • any espresso signs, coffee signs, coffee shop decorations

Dinning Room

  • Sage walls with white accents
  • My super cute plates from Bed, Bath & Beyond match this

Bedroom

  • Silver walls with Navy blue accents
  • black furniture
  • sliver & navy comforter set from BBB
  • black & silver frames

Bathroom

  • top half of wall a red color (not like a blood red but a little darker) with a black damask pattern
  • bottom half black (separated by a white chair rail - I just lost what it was called ....lol)
  • black and white accessories
  • Black, red, and white towels

What I like?

  • Anything! I'm not picky...I love warm things that make a house a home.
  • I like having color on all my walls...white walls make me feel washed out
