Well, we have finally moved!! We have been waiting for 2 and a half months! Then, we got the word and we had 48 hours to pack up our entire house (more like 12) because the guy we bought our house from wanted to make it as difficult as possible on us, so we were those people who had to move in the middle of the night because like I said we had about 12 hours! Oh well, we are exhausted, but we are in our new home and all of our boxes are packed to the ceiling in our garage and slowly but surely, we will be all unpacked and settled! I hope once we get settled I can blog a little more! I need to update you on law school!! Have a great weekend, and Roll Tide!

Still here..
Hi there, I'm still here if you are wondering! I'm just taking a little (maybe big) break! Life has just been crazy lately! And I have just been trying to keep up! We are still in the process of buying a house, I am so done with the whole thing, but trying to keep my eye on the prize! Last weekend, I turned 26 and I gave up my life for the next 4 years and started law school!!! I'm excited, but it is going to be a challenge! I'm also still working full time at a law firm! Life is great even at 150 mph! Hope to check back soon! Thanks for sticking around!

Whirlwind crazy!
So, it is nothing new that my life is all kinds of crazy! I fill my days with looking around at houses in our area (although I think we have found one that we like), answering the phone calls at work, doing everything I can get done on my to do list at work, counting the days on the calendar until law school starts, and staring at my phone wondering if my real estate agent is going to call with good news (which she called today with potentially good news)!
I mean, I thought life would possibly slow down some, but it hasn't ONE BIT! But, we do think we have sold our house and have found one we like! I am training to run the Disney Wine and Dine half marathon in October! I am trying to prepare myself to start law school, and I am working 40 hours a week at a VERY fast paced attorney's office. Needless to say life just isn't slowing down!
Hopefully soon I can add some pictures to my posts! I still need to post the gorgeous pictures of our One Year Anniversary trip to the mountains! Hopefully I can do that before another month passes!! :)

One Year...
Wow how time flies! I haven't been on here in forever, hopefully I can set a more blog-oriented schedule soon! But, I just wanted to come by and share what a wonderful weekend I has with my husband...OF A YEAR! Yep, that is right! Sunday, we celebrated our one year anniversary! Can you believe it has already been a year?! We enjoyed a cabin in the Blue Ridge mountains in Georgia, our wedding cake topper, our bottle of wine we bought in France on our honeymoon and each other!! It was the perfect way to slow down and really relax and reflect on where the year has gone! I got him a book that I made of our first year in review and he got me tickets to see Miranda Lambert! :) We visited a winery on Sunday and bought a bottle of wine to enjoy on our 2 year anniversary! I think we have started a great tradition, buying a bottle of wine in the place we celebrate our marriage and then drink it the next year!
Other updates on life: I am starting LAW SCHOOL in August! Yay! Working at the law firm was just the kick I needed to apply! It will be tough trying to juggle it all, but it will all be worth it in the end! :) We are VERY excited to see what comes of it! Hopefully I will be around here more often as well!! :)
Thank you all for being patient with me! My friend C told me that if I didn't hurry up and post a blog, that you guys were going to send out a search party for me! :) Well, I am here, alive, just SUPER EXTREMELY busy!

Again....
I feel like I am perpetually absent from the blog world for certain periods of time. Life is just moving WAY.TOO.FAST! I have SO MUCH going on that I can barely keep up, much less sit and write about it! So, I may take a small break while I catch up with life. Maybe it will just be a few hours and I can check in before I lose my mind. Talk to you soon!

Getting back in the swing of things....
My list of things to do is just growing by leaps and bounds...seriously!
We are starting to pick life back up where it was left off in the aftermath of the storms from two weeks ago! We were without power for over a week. We were very lucky though, less than a mile from my house, you can't even tell there were neighborhoods there, or a grocery store, or a pharmacy. Really, it is scary.
Anyway, we had a previous trip to the beach planned for last week and with no power and work being closed, we decided it was best just to go. We packed in the dark and had to leave our house just kind of there. Really, it wasn't the way I would have chosen to do things, but we needed to go. We packed our bags and were gone. Although, with the disaster area and power trouble left at home, it was hard to fully relax on the trip. We also knew that when we got home, we had a lot of things to take care of. With no power, your refrigerator and freezer doesn't work. We lost EVERYTHING in our fridge and freezer, which again, we are the lucky ones. We had to come home and replace everything that we could think of in our fridge and freezer. It was a good opportunity to take all of the shelves and drawers out and clean the whole thing, I guess.
Now, we are back to our regular schedule and are trying to get back into our routine. Our dogs didn't do well with us being gone and are not the same, so that is another thing we have been trying to correct this weekend and I am sure for a while moving forward. Hopefully I will get to a better routine soon, now that all of our dishes and laundry is done and our fridge is kind of restocked. We just have a few more things to do for the house and everything will be back (kind of) like it was. Hope you all have a great week, I am glad to be back! If you would like to know more about the storm that hit my area go here! Thank you all for thinking of me and my Sweet Home Alabama during this time!

Devastated
Well I am updating from my phone. just as I was about to post an update, storms hit yesterday, and it was the worst in history for this area. As you all may know, I live in North Alabama. We have no power and won't for days, we were lucky at my house with no damage but today is going to be a long day of cleanup at my parents house, they have lots of trees down and can't get out of their driveway or road without extensive tree cutting. However, we wake up thankful today that we are the lucky ones, our friends and family are all safe and accounted for. Trees can be cut, power will eventually be restored, but the 128 (and counting) lives lost in alabama can't be replaced. Please keep our area in your thoughts and prayers as we begin the long journey of cleanup and restoration. And pray for power soon!
