These last few days have been just crazy! Super awesome, but crazy. Matthew & I talked a lot about the military and have pretty much narrowed it down to two branches: Air Force and Navy. I'm pretty sure that Matt's leaning towards Air Force, which I'm excited about. I think there are a LOT of opportunities for him in the Air Force. We are going to talk to both recruiters again this week.
Saturday was super fun! We went to a swap meet at the Ozark Empire Fair Grounds. It was so interesting! There were a lot of old cars that were all fixed up. It was so cool. I found some really cool scarves that were super cheap! It was such a great way to spend our afternoon. It was my first full weekend off where I didn't have anything to do in forever. Spending an afternoon outside with Matthew was wonderful. After we got home, he made a scrumptious dinner. It was bbq pork chops with mashed potatoes and green beans on the side. YUM. After dinner we didn't feel like sitting around so we went for a nice long walk through a really nice retirement neighborhood across the street from us. It was quite the adventure!
Then yesterday was just as great. We didn't even get up until about noon. Once we finally got up, we made french toast. Again, it was yummy! then we just hung around until about 4:30. We left to go get birthday presents for my cousin Jordan and one of my good friends Sarah. Once that was done, we went to campus to see Jordan's room! I'm seriously so excited that she's going to be down here for school. It will be such fun. I got to see her roommate again and meet some of her friends. Then we all went to Chi Alpha's root beer kegger! Oh my word. There were so many people there! It was just wonderful. I got to see so many of my friends that I haven't seen in a long time. I don't think I've given out so many hugs in a while! Well, except for the wedding, of course. One thing that was super awesome, was that I met Josh Buckner! He's the guy who did the spoken word that I blogged about a little while back. It was awesome. It's the first time that I've met someone who has read my blog and I hadn't met them yet. Talk about cool. It was really encouraging and definitely reminded me why I blog. I want my words to reach people they normally wouldn't. I want my words to create friendships. I want my words to make a difference.
After we left the root beer kegger we went to Five Guys for dinner. Yesterday was mine and Matthew's one year mark. Last year on the 18th, we became "official". It has been the fastest, most amazing year of my life. I still can't believe we are married. I always think I love Matthew as much as possible, and then I'm proven wrong. I truly love this man with everything I have and I can't wait to see what all the years ahead hold for us.
