The beginning

Hello, hello!!

So I figured I would do a blog post to start my introduction of Jason :) Seeing as he will be a big part of this blog, it's only suiting. I'll start at the beginning and just continue as we start this journey together called our "Ever After".


It was a very cold night. I remember this because Jason mentioned something that night that he would give me his hoodie. Anyways, it was in October of 2007 when we met. We met like any other typical college adults meet.... at a party situation.  So, I was invited to a dorm "party" with these two other guys I knew. I invited my roommate at the time to come with me because I didn't want to be there alone.

We get to the dorm and of course the guys I knew and a couple more were already smashed as could be.... (like I said typical ha!). I met a guy named Clint and the other guy there I already knew, named Ryan. I met two other people one named Oran and this other strapping young fellow, Jason. However, when I met Jason I never saw his face. His face was covered with a black (even though he'll tell you dark blue... it was black) hat. As I was going to sit down, I fell into a hole in their futon.. I laughed. Jason said hi my name is Jason and stuck out his hand to shake mine. The whole time I was thinking, um okay? haha. So I did the same. I watched him play guitar  hero while getting that warm feeling from indulging in some legal age beverages. Still all in while not knowing what Jason looked liked.


Note: I must tell you, I was not going there to "hook" up with anyone, or even with the intention to meet someone and get into a relationship with. Earlier that day I took a "break" (and we all know those never end up back together) from my current boyfriend and very abusive relationship. That's for another blog post.

Then after some fun, the guys decided to go into the back half of the dorm room and play some games. While I sat back there talking to my roomie and guy friends, Jason comes back and has a seat. That was the very first time I actually sat his face. I was absolutely shocked at how handsome he was. (his views on me... I have no idea. haha, I highly doubt he even remembers that night) So we start playing this game called red, black, purple. Yes, it is a fun and very fast pace game.... very fast pace....

While we were indulging, my roomie decided to leave me alone with these guys to go to the bathroom.. bad idea. Oran is a horrible influence when it comes to drinking and he knows it since I tell him every time I hang out with him! So while my roomie was gone, shots were passed out... well, let's just say I teased Jason that night and he got my number pretty darn easily than any other number he ever had to work for... this will be a trend on how easy he had it in the beginning haha.


Part two will continue later :)


Happy First day of Autumn tomorrow!

sorry for the lack there of

Howdy!

So sorry for the lack of posts. I know I don't have many followers at this point but I apologize to my two bloggy friends. Anyways here is a quick little update on my life thus far since I have restarted my passion for blogging.

1. I have worked the past 8 days with little to no sleep. Talk about exhausting.

2. My mind has been on fast forward. With so much to do before our wedding, final dress fitting in IL, need to still get shoes, flowers, decorations, last meeting with our Pastor, finding a gift for Jason, finishing gifts for my two girls/flower girl/mom & dad! Lots going on I tell you!

3. I've been a nervous wreck about Jason's bachelor party. It's not him, I know I can trust him with all my heart. But, I know he just doesn't understand. It's a girl thing I guess, or maybe just a me thing. I tend to compare myself to a lot of other girls. I have very much not a lot of good self image in myself. Horrible right? And with his party being a weekend, and with the group of guys I know... I'm just a wreck over what may go on. But, I guess I just need to suck it up and move forward. I try.

4. I really just want to be in my career already. I feel as though I keep swimming to the surface and then a big cinder block falls on top of me and pushes me back with this current job. I know I cannot complain since I have a lot to be thankful for, like even having a job. I have been praying a lot for strength and guidance.

Anyways, I actually have two days off tomorrow and Saturday! I cannot begin to describe how happy I am to have these days off, and in a row at that! I plan on sleeping in, taking a long hot bubble bath, and working on these bad boys:


Let me tell you.... Tying bows on our invites has been quite an adventure... Haha. Let's just say that it took a certain man about 45 mins to find out that he does not have a talent in bow tying and then persist to throw the invite on the ground. I just bursted out in laughter.... After checking to make sure the invite  survived!


Well until tomorrow,

xo Future Mrs. M

Hello there!



Howdy y'all!

This is my new and improved blog! I have to say I took quite some time off from writing and blogging. I had a lot of personal thought and some transitions to go through. As you can see I have added the "i Blog for me" button. When I sit here listening to my fiance' playing Halo 3, I think... why do I feel the need to write and blog? Well, the answer is simple. I blog/write for me. I need it. It's a way to relax, a way to reflect, and a why to share my life with others. I also blog because I love learning about others and their experiences.

Now, I know that certain things I may think about and agree with... others may not. However, this is why I love blogging! I love hearing other's point of views and learning from their experiences.
