Moving time

We are busy busy moving into our new place! Why is it that every time we move it seems to take longer to unpack? More to come soon!

Love me some summer

 via

I LOVE summer.
I love the warm weather.

I love that it stays light out for so long.

I love Summer reading by the beach. Just finished These Is My Words. A little hard to get into but then your hooked!

I love that my sun turns my skin brown.

I love traveling. I feel like Michael and I have been non- stop traveling since May. It is the best!

I love Summer Weddings. 

I love summer movies. Believe it or not, we have gone to the movie theater every. single. week. this summer. Obsessive? Yes. I think we should just own a movie theater one day.

I love the fact that DC tastes even better and more refreshing in the summer.

Sonic happy hour =<3

I Love. Love. the beach. Michael and I are always talking about where we want to live when we grow up. As most of you know we are clueless. But I think after traveling across the country this summer the beach just feels like home to us. 

Beach days are by far the best days.

I love summer foods. Fresh fruit. Grilled food. yumm.

Frozen yogurt on a hot summer day. Currently loving watermelon with mochi from 32 degrees at the Destin Outlets.

I love summer sales.

I am also loving, maxi skirts/dresses, denim, pearls, high buns almost everyday, Moroccan Oil (Try the curling mousse. Does wonders), and the color coral.

It is the best time of the year. Hands. Down. Obv.

Offically done.

With the thousand and one things I should be catching up on 

I am instead going to write about the thousand and one things I am looking forward to.

Okay not that many

but we do have a few up exciting weeks ahead. 

It is crazy how we have been planning all of these trips and now it is all happening.

Life just seems to be moving faster and faster

Is that just me?

First and foremost I am done with school! 

I know I should be excited, but it hasn't really set in.

and I liked being a student. 

Real life, I don't know if I am ready for you yet.

Oh well, ready or not here I come!

I am in the process of packing for our 2.5 week trip

And boy it is going to be a busy one.

Here is our itinerary

Yes, I know that you were all desperatly waiting for it to come out. 

Almost as much as you were waiting to here about William & Kate's CA trip.

Does anyone get why she spells Kate with a K and Catherine with a C? 

I guess she is fabulous enough to pull that off. 

You can call me Kourt or Courtney. 

I am just that fabulous.

Tangent and back.

Tomorrow I leave for the great state of CA. 

Straight into celebrating the fabulous Karly's & Dave wedding

After about a month, I finally have set up my pinterest. 

I have yet to post anything due to the fact I have a paper and presentation tomorrow and I know once I start I won't get off that site!

The question is:

If so, any tips or leave a comment so we can be pin friends?

This is exciting folks!

A Year in Review

A year ago today Mike and I were married! 

People keep asking me if it feels like a year since we have been married. 

And it really doesn't. 

The whole time we were dating/ engaged we were counting down to something.

When we would see each other, when we would be flying here, when we would get married. 

Now there is no counting down and the days have flown by.

I have been thinking a lot about of all we have done together in the past year as husband and wife.

I thought, for remembrance sake, it would be fun to name a few. 

May

 Wedding and Honeymoon!

Perfect.

The fun continues with the open house in Florida and staying there till work started in the end of June!
