"The world will never starve for want of wonders...."

"but only for want of wonder" ~ G. K. Chesterton My life has been a whirlwind of courtship, engagement, preparing for a wedding, getting married to the love of my life, a honeymoon, moving to a different state, settling down, having family out, cook-outs, going to a fair, 4th of july, having my two sisters visit, a random photo shoot, and...a big surprise at the end!!! =) So...here are a BUNCH of photos to get y'all caught up on my life....ENJOY! I seriously love my sister so much! We went to Pacific City, OR for part of the honeymoon...did I ever mention how much I LOVE the ocean?? My husband is a good photographer!! =) Haystack Rock...it was right outside of our window! Yes...we are happy! Not long after we moved in we had family come visit us!! I was very thrilled...=D And more family came to visit...this time we brought them to the river for a picnic lunch and fun in the water! It was icy cold...

  "And life is a little weird.  And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness - and call it love - true love."  ~Robert Fulghum, True Love  And thus my story goes....at the start of this new year I was asked if Garrison Sanford could get to know me better and I him. I said yes....so, life went on with him coming over, talking, working together and so forth! Then to my surprise I was asked by Garrison if I would marry him on January 19th, 2013. My answer was the same as my first..I said yes!  "Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without."  ~James C. Dobson God has indeed blessed me by sending me a Godly man who desires to live a life for Christ sake and for His kingdom! Not only that, I've known and loved his family for almost 7 years! My mind has been blown away by G...

I'm writing so that you might know what's come and gone! Life comes and goes....it's like a tornado of sorts. It seems like yesterday we moved here to Middle-Of, IL. My siblings are growing up; they're getting bigger, and there's no more "watching" them or changing diapers and all that jazz.... I'm now sitting here eating apples with peanut butter mainly because we are ALL of out bananas!!! This is very depressing for me, as I was looking forward to biting into that delicious not too sweet, slightly firm, tad bit green on the outside banana. I could go on and on about my love for them; but, I'm afraid that would bore you a bit. Eh???  I did almost walk three miles just to find a banana once! True story....that will have to wait until later. So, let me not get off subject. Onto the pictures!!  My hair is getting extra long; so, I've been trying out different hairstyles. Sometimes they turn out....other times not so much!  ...
