It's been a while since I've been able to write a blog post but what better way to come back than a three things Thursday post ... Except with all the time that's passed there's so much more I should be sharing...
Count your blessings and then count them again!
I honestly believe I'm truly blessed with everything and much more {Thank you, God} but recent events put life into perspective and made me realize how lucky I really am to wake up next to the love of my life from out of my bed every morning. Two weekends ago we had every intention to just celebrate life .. Earlier in the day I went and got my hair and nails done... Later that evening my husband and I got dressed up to go out. It was a rainy gloomy night .. we were going 60 MPH and from the opposite direction a big black heavy object came flying into our windshield on the passengers side ... Luckily we walked out of the car with a few small scratches but at that moment in time I couldn't stop thinking about we walked away from death. I am so thankful for every blessing and life being the biggest one.

We all walk around saying Happy Memorial Day but do we really know what it means? My heart goes out to all of those brave men and women defending our country every day to keep us safe.
But I cannot deny that almost every year I eagerly wait the unofficial start of summer and a little more so this year. My closest friends are having a baby!! I'm going to be an Aunty!! I flew out to Houston Friday night to help host their baby shower on Saturday. I had planned and planned everything to the T ... But nature always has other plans... There was a terrible storm in Houston Friday evening causing a 4 hour back up at the George Bush International Airport. My flight landed at 11PM but we didn't get home till 3:30 because we were stuck sitting on the plane waiting for a gate to disembark the plane... I forgot my airborne/vitamin c and ended up with a terrible cold all weekend! {UGH nasty recycled plane air} We all slept at 6AM every night / morning and were waking up a few hours later. Despite all the craziness ... I had a lovely time but I did miss my husband and it was a great feeling to come home to him <3
Baby Boom?
I cannot count the number of baby showers I've recently attended. But my favorite being the one I planned for this past weekend all the way in Houston. I must say I had low expectations of how everything would turn out due to all the planning taking place here, so far away! Thankfully everything turned out beautiful and the parents to be loved it! I'm in the midst of writing up a full post on it and how to plan / host an event half way across the country :)
