Leaving on a Jet Plane

The day has finally come that I get to go down to California and meet up with Devin to bring that boy home! It's been a long month without him but there have been hidden blessings in his absence...I feel like our love has grown stronger and the extra money definitely isn't a bad thing either! It was so weird living completely alone for an entire month. I've always either lived with my family, roommates, or Devin, but never completely alone. I didn't get scared even once (I think it had something to do with living near Atlanta for four months:)

This is the first time in my life that I'm kind of nervous to fly! I've always loved flying and having flown pretty much around the world, I'm a pretty seasoned flyer! BUT I had to read this book this last week for one of my classes and there was an entire chapter about plane crashes! I can't help but feel a twinge of nervousness! I've even thought out that since my flight is short,if I we crash, the plane won't catch fire as fast because there won't be as much jet fuel! haha I'm not super nervous but enough that I've thought about it!

Well, tomorrow we are going to Disneyland and the significance of this is that it will be my first time to Disneyland. Before everyone chokes or gasps because they can't imagine life without Disneyland, I can explain! I grew up in Wisconsin which is 20+ hours from Disney World and 35+ hours from Disneyland and with a family of 7, flying there wasn't really an option! I moved here in high school and got too involved with swimming and singing and everything else to make a trip down there! When Devin's family found out that I had never been, it pretty much brought them to tears. Even now after they are all aware of that fact, they are still shocked when I remind them that I have no idea what they are talking about! They go to Disneyland AT LEAST once a year and Devin's little 6 month old nephew has already been twice. I've been one-upped by a baby :(

Also, possibly on the agenda is Six Flags Magic Mountain! Devin and I got season passes to Six Flags in Georgia and we realized that the pass works at every park! We may be too tired from Disneyland to make it up there but it'll be fun and FREE!


So, I'm flying out there, we're going to Disneyland and I'm driving back with Devin. We're going to break up the driving by stopping in Vegas and I'm so excited! Vegas is always fun and it'll be nice not to drive the whole way in one day. As most of you will recall, Devin and I have done our fair share of driving in the last couple of months!

SOOOO...I guess we'll be back to real life on Tuesday, but until then...Devin and I are going to be out having the time of our lives! WOO HOO!

Remembering 09-09-09

Two days ago was Devin and my one year anniversary. I cannot believe how fast it went! It seems like yesterday we were surrounded by our family and closest friends being married in the Temple for eternity. Unfortunately, Devin is working in LA for the whole month of September, so we have not officially celebrated our anniversary yet, but that will make seeing him at the end of this month that much better.
I can't wait for what the future holds for us! I can't wait until we buy a house and have children and any other blessings the Lord gives us!
