update number two.

(it kicked me off of my other update...this is just continued...)
may:
-pretty boring month for the first part. justin was up here so i enjoyed having a good friend around.
-jennifer came up to visit for a weekend and, as always, we enjoyed every second!
-justin was driving through nashville to go home to mississippi so, of course, i hopped in the truck for the chance to go home! i enjoyed time with mom and dad and carly, keith and darlene and anna, and brian and justin and jennifer and taylor.june:
-cody came home!!! i had waited **117 days** for him to finally come home and it happened!!! long hair and all :)

-he came home to us owning a house! that's right, i did that while he was gone and he was happy with my choice. not that i would EVER recommend doing that by yourself haha. but, i signed papers the monday before he came home on friday. here's our new house!!!
-cody's parents came for a week and helped us move and paint and everything. it was so great! our house is amazing and i love it. and it is OURS!!!
-cody came home.
-cody came home.
-cody came home.
-did i mention cody came home?!? that was by far the best part of june.
-brian was here for some of it, so we went to a george straight concert. AMAZING. seriously.


-hillary was up here for a concert with kenny so we got to hang out! taylor and jennifer came up for it and we enjoyed the long weekend at the beach!





july:
-cody was out of town for a few weeks.
-carly came up here to spend a few days for her birthday/fourth of july. we went to dinner with brian. went to the beach. she got to meet our "brother" casper. and enjoyed sister time.


-my friends kortni and summer came up for a quick visit! and by quick i mean, like 2 days. but it was fun! we went to the beach and got to catch up and have girl time. it was perfect and just what i needed!

-cody was in memphis so i flew in to nashville to see him for a quick visit with him. it was great to just be together. we got to spend a little time with both of our families but just mainly it was a trip for us. we needed time together. and that seems like it's harder and harder to come by these days.




-i don't really get to go to the beach as much as i would like to, seeing as i only live 1 mile from the oceanfront. but, i got to see this awesome picture from God the other morning.
that brings us to august:
-we celebrated our first year anniversary. crazy to think it's already been a year.
-we went putt putting with brian one day and i realized that i am lucky to have two of the greatest men so close to me. cody is the best husband i could ever have asked for and he treats me so well. i love every moment i get to spend with him and don't ever take time with him for granted. brian is the best friend i could have ever asked for. i'm lucky to have gotten to see him so much this summer. i will miss him when he's not up here anymore.

hope this update hasn't been too long or boring. hope you enjoyed :-)
love,
