flying time

then

now

(Lily)

I cannot decide if time has stopped or if its going too fast to tell.

I feel like school should be over but I still have 4 months left...and its going so slooow.

I feel like I've learned so much but still don't know anything...

hmm..lets just say I cannot wait until May. hopefully it'll come sooner than I think.

On a lighter note...I am starting to cook!!!! wooohooo!!

this is actually pretty big news.

I cooked one of our most favorite dinners tonight!

Chicken Tetrazzini

(amazing dish!!! my mom gets all the credit)

for the first time, I looked through a recipe book and planned a menu!

Chris is especially excited. If anything was ever home cooked, he made it.

This is one of my new goals. I'll definitely keep ya posted.

The other day chris and I went to Utah Lake for a little drive. It was all frozen!!! don't ask me why but I wasn't expecting a frozen lake when we decided to go. (I wish it was summer, I am in denial.) it was chris' first time ever seeing it!..so that was exciting.

any who, it was the most beautiful day!!

I am usually not up for cheesy..

but, I am feeling overwhelming love. for my husband. If you don't like sappy...I am sorry..

I have to get it out somewhere. He had to go to Las Vegas for a work trip...only for a couple days..but I am a baby. I've only gotten to talk to him very briefly. I feel like life just keeps going and keeps going and it is so easy to take the people in your life for granted. Chris is probably the number one person I take for granted...which is really dumb. I have never had a better friend than him. I don't know how he puts up with me really. I usually have to do a lot of venting and venting at the end of my day and he always just listens. and like any man, he tries to come up with solutions for any problem or emotion I am feeling. I cannot believe the patience he has. He is so supportive to me in everything...emotionally and physically. I have wanted to go to Massage Therapy school for a few years but I could never imagine how I could afford going and I couldn't even think about the commitment, I feel so grateful to Chris for supporting me with school and pushing me to go. financially and mentally I just would not be able to do it with out him. These couple nights of coming home from an almost 9 hour school day and only being able to blab my little head of about my day to my dog is kind of depressing. And then getting into a cold bed and the only thing to warm you up is an electric heating pad, I mean goodness!! is it just me, or am i just a little baby. lets me honest here.

Any way. my point is. I don't know what it is. Just LOVE. :)

I love you Christopher Ian Barborka! You're my bestest friend! thank you for everything you do and especially for putting me and you through college!
