I am going to Atlanta in a few minutes to go to Faith Days at the Atlanta Braves. I am very excited to see me old friend Brent High take his concept that we did together in Nashville to the Major Leagues! To read more about Faith Days visit Third Coast Sports website.
I will post some pictures from our new digital camera when I return!

17 days!
My brother Mike left for his Freshman year at Florida State on Saturday. My brother Nick left for his Junior year at UF on Sunday. Grant left for his last semester at FGCU yesterday. The house is much quieter now, less the fights over who gets to move into Mike’s room while he is away at school.
I miss Grant so much already. Yesterday he dropped me off at the gym on his way to Fort Myers. I worked out, trying not to think about the empty home I’d return to. I made dinner for myself and cleaned the house a bit. I watched our favorite TV shows without him. I went to be comforted by one of Grant’s shirts that he left folded under my pillow with the scent of his cologne.
The next few months will be difficult, a continuous countdown until I get to see him again. Right now it is at 17 days. Sometimes I think about how sad it will be not seeing him each day, but then I feel awful for feeling so down. He is just going to school. He is not being sent overseas to fight in a war. He is not being sent to a hospital to get treatments for a life-threatening disease. We can make it through the next four months and enjoy our visits, phone calls and emails.
Through all of this I am reminded of how lucky I am to have such a wonderful, loving and caring husband and such a healthy relationship.

I'm baaack
Much has happened in the last month or so since I have posted on here. I am going to make an effort to post more frequently.
Grant and I have been truly enjoying married life. It is so nice being in the same place. Grant has finished up school for the summer and is getting restless at home while I’ve been busy at work. I am transitioning into a new role at work. I am excited about learning a new part of the business and broadening my skills. I am also looking forward to applying all of my learning from the past 8 months in my new position.
Grant and I traveled to Fort Myers a couple of weeks ago to visit his parents and to go to his friend’s wedding. It was fun to go to our first wedding after our own. I really enjoyed seeing his parents. I wish that they lived closer or that there was a direct flight from here to there. The drive is a long one! Grant and I did, however, stop in Orlando on the way back to do a little shopping. We bought a few items that were left on one of our registries from the wedding. It was a good break.
In two short weeks Grant will be leaving to return home for his last semester of school. I am going to miss him so much! We started planning out our weekends. Since he works mostly on the weekends we have to plan out our weekend visits in advance. We have a couple fun trips planned. We are going to Vegas again with Jordan, my maid of honor, and her boyfriend Ryan in October. This will be our first time going to Vegas with friends. I am excited, but I do hope that we will have some time to spend alone too since that will be our one weekend together in October. In November we are traveling to D.C. to visit my friend and bridesmaid Danielle and her boyfriend Jose. We are also going to Grant’s friend’s wedding in Virginia.
I hope the next few months go by quickly!
On another note, Grant and I started looking for places to live. I am so excited about getting our own place!!
