Garlic

Interesting title you say? Well, Kirk and I are not great about cleaning out the fridge. Recently, we noticed that we did not have a lot of room in our fridge, so we cleaned it out yesterday. Sadly, a lot of groceries that we bought we only 1/2 used before the expiration date came. While cleaning out produce, and the like, I came across this garlic! I had no idea that left by itself in a cold fridge - apparently, this is what garlic looks like.
Interesting.
Just had to share!

It's Been Three Months....

Well, I am said to say, it's been to long since we have blogged. I guess in starting this I thought we would do updates frequently, but life has gotten a hold of us and sadly, our blog has been neglected. I have now already finished my first semester (Summer I), and I start more classes (Summer II) on Monday! I am loving being a student again. I have missed learning, and have loved studying, being at lectures, and learning how to be an awesome school counselor! Perhaps my favorite part of being back in school, are the people I have met, I been really blessed, I truly love being around the people I take class with. I know the future holds a lot of work, but I am excited and embrace all of the challenges!
In other news, Kirk has been with Nationwide for a year now! How crazy is that?!? He loves the people he works with, but is excited to move up! We continue to receive new that that is coming soon!

We also celebrated our first anniversary in March. We took a long weekend to Nashville (about a month before the huge flood). We had a blast and enjoyed going to all the bars with live music, and getting a taste for the southern culture.

This was our anniversary dinner at Morton's Steakhouse - so delicious!

I also began working as a Mary Kay Beauty Consultant in March. It's been scary, but very exciting and fun to be around cosmetics and pamper women to help them feel as beautiful as they are!
Other than that, we continue to live life to the fullest! We are incredibly grateful summer is here! We enjoy our apartment that over looks the pool, and hanging out poolside whenever we have the chance.
We are grateful for our marriage, and feel incredibly blessed by each other daily (well, ok, almost daily - we have our not so good moments too!).
Promise - it won't be three months before our next post!
