35 days & i'm blank because.


inspired by the gorgeous casey over at the weigand's & she was inspired by little miss momma.

i am weird because.

i used to eat pb & pickle sandwiches growing up.
i love the satisfaction of a good sneeze.
i fight the temptation to read the last page of a book before i start.
i have a constant love/hate relationship with my hair.
i count everything silently in my head by multiples.
i can't fall asleep with wet hair.
i think a shower is more of a daily suggestion then a requirement.

i am a bad friend because.

i sometimes don't read texts immediately.
i will leave my phone on silent because i don't want to talk.
i struggle to keep in touch when distance is involved.
i sometimes care too much.
i don't always speak up when i should. 
i sometimes want to figure out all my options before making a commitment.

i am a good friend because.

i am a fighter for you.
i look out for your best interests.
i want to make meaningful memories.
i desire for all my friends to succeed.
i am always there through thick & thin.
i forgive & forget.
i will dream big when you can't.

i am sad because.

i can't take my loved ones with me everywhere.
we aren't able to spend thanksgiving in the midwest.
i make to big of a deal out of little issues.
i can't sit at a cozy coffee shop with my besties & catch up. 
i can not make my friends love jesus.
i have no control over the outcome or successfulness of my brothers. 

i am happy because.

i am extremely blessed.
i have an amazing family.
i married my best friend.
i get to spend thanksgiving with my family in california.
christmas is getting closer each second.
i get to go to the festival of lights on friday.
we fly home in 24 days. 
it is my most favorite time of the year.
there will be a winter wonderland & white christmas when i get home.
i am redeemed.
grace & mercy overflow in my life.
we love our church, community group & huddle.

i am excited for.

my hubby's future career.
beginning the adoption process.
the first time i feel my baby in my belly. 
christmas festivities.
where we will be in a year.
moments & memories with friends & family over the holidays.
the moment i purchase my first DSLR.
