Rick and I just spent the better part of this saturday afternoon grocery shopping. We're trying our best to start eating healthy so we loaded up on a ton of fruit. We got grapes, pineapple, apples, pears and bananas. I can't wait for the weather to get a little warmer out so I can start making fruit salads, those are my favorite. Fruit salads from whole foods...mmm. Someone needs to get on building a whole food in brick already.

I also bought myself a little bouquet of daffodils. I love daffodils and daisies. Spring flowers are the best flowers. I've found that getting flowers for our basement makes it a little more homey and with our lack of windows it brings a little bit of nature for us to enjoy. It's definitely the worst when it's amazing outside and we have no windows to open and no bright sunlight to light up our little basement apartment.

Rick and I have been together for over a year now and we barely have any pictures, so I bought two disposable cameras in hopes to change that. Last weekend we took a walk on Pt. Pleasant board walk and got our very first photo-booth pictures, so I think from now on I am going to make it a point to start documenting our life together. After all, he is the love of my life and I fully intend to spend the rest of forever with him. <3

A few days ago, I splurged on a few craft books - 'Big Ass Book of Crafts' and 'Big Ass Book of Home Decor' both by Mark Montano. I've already marked off all the projects I want to do, this summer is going to be the summer of crafts, thrift shops and flea markets. I can't wait. I can't wait to just be able to have my own place with Rick so that way I can really let all my decorating flare loose. Haha. I figure if I start now with making things, we'll have plenty of furniture to move into an apartment with. And lucky for me, I happen to be in love with a guy that is amazing at building things - so all the building projects I want to do will be that much easier!

So, for now I'm just going to relax until later tonight when Rick and I go see Dashboard Confessional at Starland Ballroom, which should be fun. And hopefully from here on out I'll keep up with this little blog. It will be nice to be able to look back and read about things I was doing in the future. Just like I want to start documenting my life with Rick with pictures, I want to start writing down everything I have in my head and whats going on with me - kind of like a record of my life.

There is so much that I miss. And there is so much I want to do. I really wish sometimes that I could go back and do things differently - but then I wonder if I had done anything different would I be where I am now. I'm not complaining about how my life is now. I love everything about it. There is just a lot that I miss. It is as simple as that.

I cannot wait for the warm weather to finally be here. I cannot wait to be able to be outside again. I am going to do everything that I can to make this summer an amazing one for myself. There is so much that I want to do, and I am making a pact with myself that I will do it all.
