Squish

It was one of those mornings where I was kind of rushing around… flustered somewhat after it took me another 10 mintues to try and put my eyes in my head. I’m amazed I haven’t torn or lost them yet, to be honest. Yesterday morning I was attempting to put a contact in when I dropped it and the thing fell on Uzi’s back, which actually probably saved the thing and made it super easy to find. Thankfully he stood still and I managed to grab it.

Anyway, I was rushing around this morning and hastily making myself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich (yes, I’m 6) and Josh was by the sink and he looked over at me and smiled and kind of chuckled, so I asked him, “What?” and he said he had a “Heather moment.” Hmm? He said watching me make my sandwich made him imagine us in the future when we have kids. I’ll most likely be rushing around still, only with a row of bread lined up. :p It sent me off to work with a smile. I often have those moments where I’ll be watching him and imagine our future family (hence the “Heather moment”). Ah, bliss.

On another note – hooray wedding dress! It is here, and currently hiding in our closet in a garbage bag. :p Yeah, yeah, I forgot to buy a garment bag, so one is on the way. Ha ha.

Snuffy’s

So, for our 2nd Anniversary, since we’re on a budget, we decided to go somewhere that Josh has been wanting to take me since we moved here. Snuffy’s Malt Shop. We had tasty burgers and super yummy malts and we are definitely going back so I can try more flavors!

I love that after a month, there are still moments where I glance down at my left hand and see that sparkly ring and get completely giddy and squeal with delight. It’s a marvelous thing to be loved and to know that I will always have someone to share things with – good and bad. I’m having one of those giddy, excited moments now and have to resist the urge spending unwarranted amounts of time online at work getting wedding ideas. :p

Two Years

It is with great joy and happiness that today we celebrate our 2nd Anniversary of being a couple. Granted, I won’t get home until after 10:00pm tonight so our celebration will have to wait, but it’s a happy day nonetheless. Not only have Josh and I been together for two years, but I am going to quit my second job, so I can focus on school (still holding down a full-time job), and I think we’ve officially decided that our Wedding Date will be July 10, 2010. Unless something changes, of course. :p

Engaged!

It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon when Heather arrived home from work, slightly tired, but happy that the weather had turned sunny. Josh was outside and greeted her with open arms, suggesting they take one of their many walks, as the weather was perfect for it. They would walk down to the lake and watch the water shimmer as the sun touches it and the air is cool. As could probably be expected it was a busy day at the lake – families out with fishing poles and boats and coolers, so they walked past the bench where they sometimes sit and watch the water and headed down a path that follows the lake. They followed the path, brushing aside cobwebs – Heather saw her first sunfish, or at least what was part of one, passed a family train laden with poles and coolers and chairs until they finally reached a quiet spot. A low hanging tree trailed its branches in the water and they watched the water just beyond. Josh turned to Heather at this point and said, “So, I have a question for you.” He dropped to one knee, and Heather may have cried, “No way!” as tears started forming and he asked her to marry him, to which she replied, “YES!” He opened the box, the diamond sparkling, and said, “I really hope this fits,” as he slid it on her finger and wouldn’t you know – it fit perfectly!
I am giddy and loved and feel like I’m walking in the clouds.
