So here we stand .......... in the beginning

I have never really blogged or much less kept a journal, but I feel as though I am in the most exciting time of my life. People always tell you that your college years or your early 20's are the best years of your life, but I would have to disagree. Maybe it is because I am still in college getting another degree, or because I had an unconventional childhood, but I feel like my life began the day I met Scott. For anyone that may read this and do not know me I will give you a very quick overview:

My childhood was not the typical kind, but hey whose family now a days is normal? I have been lost, broken and alone most of my life until I met Scott. He was shy, cute, funny and had a similar sense humor as me. I like to describe myself has the clown in my group of friends. Sometimes I mean to be funny and sometimes I say funny things on accident. To me is doesn't matter though I just love making people laugh. I felt like Scott was the same way, but has better timing. I am the awkward girl that loves to dress up, but would rather sleep 10 more minutes ....... meaning most of the time you will find me with no makeup on, hair in ponytail, and old navy flip flops on. Thank goodness Scott loves me no matter what I look like. Even though on the outside I seem like this great happy go lucky person my true friends knew the sadness that was in my heart. God truly blessed me with some wonderful people. Then after meeting Scott life began to change, he became my best friend and someone that I could show all my colors to. I tried my hardest to guard my heart and push him away, but as you can see that did not work. After almost 3 amazing years together we got married May 28, 2011, I can never remember being happier then I was that day. I smiled the entire time and I am still smiling.

I am not going to say that married life has been easy, but it has been a wonderful journey so far. We bicker like an old married couple, but it is all out of fun. We never say anything to hurt one another, but basically argue on who had the better idea or which movie was more exciting. We stay true to the fact that we are two individual people that are just very much in love. I used to love to go out and be social all the time, but now a great weekend to me consist of organizing the house, having friends over, and trying out new recipes. I knew at an early age that I wanted to be a wife, mother and homemaker, but I never thought it would start this soon.

Friday night Scott and I stayed in and watched a great movie called "The Lincoln Lawyer". I am all for exciting dramatic movies that also do not lack in the eye candy department .......... I can already tell you I will be hearing about that statement when I get home. ;) The rest of the weekend was calm and relaxing until Sunday .......... OH SUNDAY! A day of relaxation right?!?! Not in our case. We were running around everywhere trying to get some last minute decorations ready before we had friends for dinner. I wanted to impress Nadaya and Owen with all the cool wedding stuff we got and my new found domestic skills by making homemade pizza and ice cream ............ pizza was a hit ........... the ice cream was mush. I am not sure what I did wrong, I followed the directions perfectly and even woke up early so it could chill long enough. Obviously I did something wrong though, because we definitely did not get to enjoy my creation ..... or lack there of.

As our summer classes come to an end I can only think about looking towards the future. I am stressed about my courses in the Fall and have told Scott he might not have a wife this next semester. Some may not know that I am going for my BBA in accounting and then hopefully the extra grad school year, this meaning my grades hold more of an importance then just passing. My sweet friend and bridesmaid, Erin, is insanely smart and decided to tell this not nearly as smart worry wart that she struggle in one of these classes. OH JOY ......said in the MOST sarcastic tone possible. So if anyone out there has advice on Intermediate Financial Accounting OR Accounting Information Systems, I am all ears .... ehhhh well all eyes in this case...........
