Familial Relations

What greater thing is there for human souls than to feel that they are joined for life -to be with each other in silent unspeakable memories. ~George Eliot Tonight I am feeling overwhelmed. Normally overwhelmed has a bad connotation, but tonight, it is great. I am feeling overwhelmed and joyful because of the family I…

Salsa Dreams

Lately I have had a lack of “sleep story” entries; my sleep talking has almost been non-existent! Maybe Ken was right, the more I write down the occurrences the less they happen. So here’s the scenario: Isaac was playing Angry Birds in bed and I sat up and said “WHAT are you doing?!” He replied…

A Red Carpet Weekend

This past weekend was the “Red Carpet Weekend” for the Wake Forest Masters of Business Program Candidates. Just from the title you are probably thinking the same thing Isaac and I were; lots of pretentious young adults with gazillions of dollars who want to take over daddy’s company someday. Needless to say I felt a…

Nolan turns 1

I had an awesome day on Sunday photographing Nolan for his 1 year old pictures! I love getting to do photo shoots with friends so I can become comfortable with how to use my creativity out in nature and not be nervous! They turned out really cute, I’m pretty happy with them! I especially love…

April Fools!

Today is April Fools, my mother’s favorite holiday I’m pretty sure. Marm loves her practical jokes! I just talked to her on the phone and she told me about this evil (and hysterical) idea she had to prank my little sister, however her best friend talked her out of it. Katy was recently accepted into…

To Commit or Not to Commit

This morning I had a good session with Ken. Now that most of my anxiety problems have been hashed out, we are working on my personal and professional growth and development. We talked about how I victimize myself to make situations seem worse, causing me to pity myself and have a bad attitude. I am…

Karma Burritos

To know me is to understand my devout, unconditional, and steadfast love for Chipotle Mexican Grill. While I get the EXACT same thing every time I go there (burrito bowl with rice, fajita veggies, tomatoes, cheese, and guacamole), everything that restaurant has to offer is delicious. Not only is the food life-changing, the staff and…

Lucky Ones

Today is my 24th birthday, whew feels weird to say. Where does the time go?! Exactly one year ago today, to the hour in fact, I was sitting in the emergency room at Forsyth Hospital being pumped full of benadryl and steroids to stop my throat from closing. Isaac took me to a nice dinner…

The Intruder

Marathon, FL. One night, Isaac decided that after a long day’s work at the Dolphin Research Center, he was going to go play poker with some buddies. Staying true to form (and taking after my mother), I got in bed about the same time his night was just getting started. About an hour and a…

The Good Life

It has been awhile since I have made a post. I have been extremely busy between going on a beach trip with the family and going to Raleigh for work. Last weekend Isaac and I went to Kure Beach to meet up with some family members. It was SO wonderful to relax and enjoy each…
