This is my friend Adrian :)



This post has been a long time coming. Seriously, like 2 months ago I told her I would write a blog about her. 
We met at Jimmy John's (she is my co-worker). I used to think she hated me, but now that I actually know her, I realized she really doesn't! yay! Anyway, here is a bit about Adrian!

1) Whenever I ask her a question, she usually gives the same look as she's doing in the above picture and is silent. Then I tell her to knock off the attitude :)

2) She is a vegetarian (because of blood dolphins...but she HATES when I say that is the reason).

3) We are going on a trip to Florida. Eventually...maybe...ok it probably won't ever happen, but still. She took a road trip to Florida and didn't even go to Disney World!! Who does that!?!? So I told her she could come next summer because Kevin's family is already planning a trip for my sister-in-law's graduation. I told her she could stuff herself in one of my checked bags :)

4) We like to make fun of people i.e. "Brendan the business coach" especially when he says "squeeky cheese is good cheese". And various people who come through the drive through with high pitched annoying voices (especially when they say "um" 378478 times when ordering). And anybody else that annoys us on any given day, especially those with bad hygiene...gross!)

5) She rocks at guessing who famous people are just from a profile shot.

6) She is OBSESSED with Muse and Coldplay...and I don't use that term lightly at all.

7) If you say anything negative about hurting cats, she'll hate you forever...or at least until the next day.

8) She likes to hoard my extra uniform in her car for weeks at a time.

9) She is madly in love with the man who lives in Aspen Village apt. 310 and I very possibly ruined her chances at a happily every after.

Anyway, there you go Adrian!! Hope you enjoyed the long anticipated blog post about yourself!!

Spoiled Christmas Presents and countdowns

Kevin and I are officially the worst secret keepers ever. Don't get me wrong, not being good at keeping secrets definitely has its pros, but with those pros comes cons. He kept asking for one specific thing (I'm not going to say what it is because it's pretty pricey and for the most part, I just don't want to put it out there for everyone to know yet) and has had his heart set on it for weeks if not months now. I would constantly catch him comparing prices/styles and he made sure I knew that is what he wanted. Anyway, I told him one day to not get his hopes up because I probably wasn't going to get it for him, even though I had always planned on getting it anyway. His face looked so sad and he got very quiet and said "Don't say those things." He looked absolutely devastated. It was so sad. Eventually, he figured it out and I had kind of already figured out what he is planning on getting me so he let me choose the color I want. So to sum that all up, we suck at keeping secrets. At least I already have a New Year's resolution: be better at keeping secrets and hiding things from my husband haha...just kidding!! But I'm actually not going to give any sort of hint next year. Totally spoils the surprise.

AND!!! Only 44 more wake-ups until I'm HOME :) I am beyond ready and very much excited!


This was one of the few pictures we took on our first anniversary back in August. We were laying on the grass in the field outside our apartment watching the sunset. I'm sure Kevin said something funny and had impeccable timing to get this shot at the perfect second. Love him.
