Day 7 & 8

Sorry for not posting yesterday, I was just being lazy and enjoying the wonderful weather we have been having. I'll try not to make this a habit! 

Day 7: A picture of my most treasured item

This is a love letter from Beau that he wrote for our 10 month anniversary (yes we celebrate months!). When he gave this to me I started crying after the first sentence! It was filled with wonderful, thoughtful sentiments that truly touched my heart. It doesn't hurt that it includes claims of how great a cook I am and how wonderful a mother he thinks I will be! :) 

Day 8: A picture that makes me laugh

This is a picture of me and Beau's mutual friend on a cruise with us and his former ex-girlfriend back in 2009. I don't exactly remember what he was doing but it was funny then and its funny now! Don't you think? 

What are some of yall's most treasured items? Have any funny pictures you want to share? 

On a side note, I'm going to start making Wednesday's "Recipe Wednesday". I love to cook new recipes and would I be right in thinking that yall would love some recipes too? So upcoming this Wednesday, Manicotti alla Romana!

Day 6 & 7

Oops yall. I got so busy yesterday and didn't have a chance to post. Me and my ladies went out for some boyfriend-free dinner and shopping! We had the most fun!
Anyways, yesterday was a picture of my favorite memory, well I don't have a picture of it but i'll tell you about it.
One of my favorite memories is of the first time Beau said he loved me! It wasn't a particularly spectacular moment but I love it all the same. We had been dating for about 1 month. I had been thinking about saying it for awhile, but being a traditional southern woman, I waited for him to say it first. We were just getting ready to say goodnight after lounging on the couch watching movies all evening, and he just said it! It was very special because I was so excited to be able to say it back immediately and mean it wholeheartedly! <3
I guess sometimes you just know :)

for today the picture is for someone I'd love to trade place with for a day. My person is none other than the fabulous, graceful, dignified Grace Kelly.

First off, she was a PRINCESS! She was a wildly successful actress before she landed her royal beau, who bestowed an almost 11 karat ring on her. She had unparalleled beauty and grace. And did I mention she was a PRINCESS?!

Day 5: A picture of my favorite memory

This is a picture from the night me and Beau shared our first kiss! It's actually really lucky that I have this picture because it was just taken randomly for no reason! I guess sometimes things just fall into place. :)

Day 4: A picture of my favorite night

Here's the gang at Beau's lakehouse for the weekend. 

Sorry for such a short post. Nursing school is a killer. Big test tomorrow.

Day 3: A picture of the cast from my favorite TV show

I don't really watch much TV, but I have a few shows I just can't get enough of. I couldn't narrow it down to just one.

                                       How I Met Your Mother: If you don't know it, you should!

As you can see I like a little variety; glamour and scandal to comedy to vampires! What shows are yall's favorites?!

Hello World!

I'm very new to this whole blogging thing, so please be patient. I thought a good way for us to get properly acquainted would be for me to take the "30 Day Photo Challenge". So here goes the list of upcoming posts. If something exciting happens I'll just have to blog twice!
