February was an awesome month for reading, writing and snuggling by the fire! Our town was frozen in – twice! This crazy winter weather lead to reflections on our First World Problems and made me think about what was important during the Winter Weather Advisory. We lost power for 18 hours but we were warm and safe – which is all that matters, really.
At the beginning of February, we were able to make it down to south Georgia to see my cousin Jaston marry his long-time sweetheart, Meagan. I hadn’t seen some of my family in so long – it was nice to hang out and reconnect. And of course, meet Baby Bryce (as Caroline would say: he’s so adorable!). I love weddings … they remind me of my own, my reasons for getting married and the things I’ve learned. On of the most important things I’ve learned/realizes/come to understand over the past seven years is that Everything They’ve Told You About Marriage Is A Lie. Seriously. Go to bed mad.
Before all the winter weather, we had a chance to celebrate Valentine’s Day. It’s always an iffy holiday around here. BJ wants to be made at me for breaking up with him on this day in high school but he wants to celebrate with the girls. So I had to explain myself. Once and for all: Don’t Be Mine. Not Yet.
February was an awesome month for me at Moms Magazine. With almost 30,000 views, it was my most successful posting month and I am thankful to each of you for your continued readership, friendship & support. Thank you, so very much, for following me on this adventure!
