Lambuth is my Home

For those of you that are familiar with Lambuth University, we received some really sad news. Lambuth will be closing its doors on June 30, 2011. This news breaks my heart for multiple reasons:
*I graduated from this school in 2010.
*I played soccer for this awesome institution.
*I met my husband here.
*I married my husband in the chapel in the middle of campus.
*I met so many friends and feel my life was enhanced just by being a part of Lambuth.

Another reason is that my brother Scott and his girlfriend Chelsea are juniors this year. I hope and pray that they will be able to work everything out in the best way for them. I love these two so much and want nothing but the best for them. I know how much Lambuth has meant to them as well. It breaks my heart.

I was going to try to get through this post without crying, but alas, that did not happen. I feel as though they are trying to take away a part of who I am. I would be nowhere near the person and wife I am today if it weren't for Lambuth. I will love Lambuth and my time there forever.

The campus at Lambuth is one of the special things about this school, and I will forever cherish my engagement and wedding pictures that highlight and capture the glory of Lambuth.


















To Lambuth thee my loyalty.
I will love Lambuth forever.

My Best Friend

So as I was sitting here on this dreary Monday afternoon, I was contemplating the topic of my next blog. Since my life is pretty boring, it took a few minutes to think if anything interesting enough to post about had happened lately. It really didn't take a few minutes, more like a few seconds, for me to get the answer. No. So I decided that I should write about how lucky I am to be married to my best friend.

Nathan is seriously the most awesome guy ever. I know most women say that about their husbands, but mine is really true. I will admit that at some points I may not be the easiest person to be around. After all, I am female. But Nathan has never yelled at me or said mean things to me. If I am upset he lets me vent, then calmly tells me that my thinking is irrational. But let me tell you, if he came right out and said it, that would not go over so well. He always seems to word it in a way where I understand, but don't get angry. I don't even know if that makes sense. And yes, I am aware that I am rambling. :) I don't know what I did to deserve someone as special, loving, patient, and cute as him, but I thank God everyday that He put Nathan in my life. I would be lost without Nathan. He is my everything.

And since I dedicated a whole post to my awesome husband, I figured it would only be fair to post a picture or two of him.


This is Nathan running the St. Jude marathon in Memphis

My favorite, Nathan's face when he first saw me walking down the aisle on our wedding day

And speaking of wedding days, I can't believe next month will be our 1 year anniversary. Where did the time go? Anyways, even though Nathan will probably never read this, I love you with all my heart!
