Home Sweet Home

Ryan and I spent last weekend at his hometown.  It was a WONDERFUL & much needed weekend there.  I will admit......when Ryan and I were first talking years ago, I remember sitting in my sorority house and I googled his hometown.  It is completely different from what I grew up in.  NOT in a bad way at all, just different.  I remember my first visit there like it was yesterday.  I was SO nervous to spend time at his parent's house, driving down gravel roads & just hanging out in the middle of fields with friends scared me :)  Like a boogy man was going to come get me bc it was so dark out. HA The best thing about all of this is I get to see a part of Ryan that just shines.  (ok that is really cheesy and he might get mad, but that is the only word I can think of right now) Just go with it.  He was SOOOOOOOO excited to go home this past weekend and was smiling from ear to ear.  I too was excited and LOVE going to spend time with his family and enjoy the "country" :)  It is nice to get out of the hussle and bussle of our life and just try to relax and spend quality time together!

Driving Ryan's truck!!!! Yes I know I look awful in this picture but I had just got done walking in the woods and was sweating! haha



Enjoying the awesome weather!

As you can see from above I learned how to drive Ryan's truck.  I have never driven a stick (successfuly for miles) BUT on Sunday I drove from his land to his parent's house.  A 15 minute drive!!!!!! YIKES! Watch out!

We got to spend time with Ryan's sister and her kids.  They are growing so fast and getting so big. 

We talked wedding!  We got some great old pictures that I am so excited about!

Of course the weekend flew by and were sad to leave.  We got home around 11:30pm Sunday night and I dont think I have caught up on sleep yet.  ahhhh Ryan is on week 12 of traveling.  I. MISS. HIM. A LOT. We need to make some final wedding decisions and it is getting to be very difficult with him gone so much.  Hopefully soon!!!

We are taking our engagement pictures this weekend!!!!! Finally, only 3 months since our engagement.  Ha  I am so excited, but getting really annoyed with what I am going to wear.  Which is "I have no clue!"  Awesome! ha  Which reminds me, I think I was suppose to take shirts to the dry cleaners.....crap! 

Have a great rest of the week. 

Love,
Emily
