Read part one and part two here.
So my boyfriend shoved the receipt for my engagement ring in my face after I accused him of not caring enough about the future of our relationship. Speechless, I merely handed it back to him and said nothing for the rest of the evening.
After that, I was just kind of waiting. Is he going to propose today? I'd think to myself after he invited me over to his … [Continue reading...]
There are a couple of things I left out of part one, only because I've talked about it so much that I figured people already really know. But maybe you don't.
What I left out: When I first saw my husband, I was convinced we would get married. In fact, I told my friends that very afternoon that I just met my husband. They kind of laughed and went on their way, but we did, in fact, get … [Continue reading...]

(Although if I was in her shoes, I'd be complaining … [Continue reading...]
Lately I've been feeling like bloggers are folks who have been placed on this high pedestal. Like we have all the answers, that our lives are perfect, that we are mini-celebrities on the small, small screen. Through the recipe posts and the beautiful photos and the tips about every little thing you could think of, I'm sure it does look like a lot of bloggers are living "the life."
