so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye...

so i know i've been a little quiet on the blog front lately,
but that's because my bf, john, is leaving for bootcamp in two days...
so i've been trying to spend as much time as possible with him...

which of course meant that i had to throw a last minute camo party for everyone to say 
farewell!

party prep in my camo mrd;)

did you know you have to actually put these stupid things together...it took me forever to attach those damn parachutes....lame

i love my mom...sooooo much!!!

cousins, siblings, fiances....and me lol

embracing change

so it's only weds and already this week has been crazy!
on monday & tues,
john (the boyfriend)
went through the process of enlisting in the
u.s. army national guard....

and not the one weekend a month national guard....
the scary special forces...
lots of training...
being away for long periods of time...
dangerous missions...
national guard.

needless to say there will be a lot of changes in the upcoming months,
but i'm so proud of him for doing what will make him happy
and i know we'll be a stronger couple in the end:)

after the long process of him getting sworn into the guard
we celebrated with a walk to red mango...
best.frozen.yogurt.ever.
and took in the last day of gorgeous weather...

the leaves are changing...
the air is changing...
and so is my life...
and i'm so ready...
