Happy Easter!

The Perfect Guy!

One of the many reasons I love Pinterest is coming across quotes and sayings that otherwise I wouldn't have the opportunity to stumble upon. This by far has to be my favorite one; I printed it today and put it in a frame on my desk at home as a reminder that things might not always be perfect, but that's perfectly fine with me!

Weekend Rundown!

Thursday, myself and a few of my favorite girls celebrated Cinco De Mayo!

We had a few of these...

Friday Nate & I spent the day on the lake! It was a gorgeous day! He did some fishing, and I caught up on some reading!

Saturday I spent the morning with my Mother, we had breakfast, manicures & pedicures, and then did some shopping!

That evening we had a family cookout...I love, love, love these kids!

Sunday I spent the day with my wonderful mom, we went to church with my Grandmother, then took her to lunch. Btw...the matching was unintentional...we both got out of our cars and said..."Are you kidding me"...lol

 I hope you all had a great weekend! 

Weekend Recap

I hope you all had a great weekend! Mine was filled with many things, none of which were rest...lol...I will be having some lazy nights this week!


Friday night NH & I spent the evening with my parents, we spend a lot of time with my parents, it probably has a little bit to do with the fact that I have zero domestic qualities, and my mother is like Paula Deen's stepchild...lol...She keeps us well fed! It is great to spend time with them. I really have great parents, you will hear much more about them later I'm certain! 
Saturday I did a bit of dreaded housework, then helped K get ready for her 9th grade prom. I spent a few years working at the local Merle Norman store, so that makes me a legit makeup artist (sarcasm). I got K all fixed up and then ended up getting her dressed and to the photographer for pictures before she had to get to the limo...she looked gorgeous!

NH and I had a date night Saturday, movies & Genghis Grill...Yummo! Today was a typical Sunday...Church, lunch with family, then movies on the couch at Nate's...despite a weekend with no laziness...I wouldn't change a thing!  How was your weekend? Hope it was great!


Until next time...

It all started with a creepy stalker text message!

As I mentioned in my previous blog, one year ago today I started talking to NH. I had seen him at church a few times, and he caught my eye...I am an only child so I'm pretty good at doing whatever it takes to get what I want! He was a friend of our preachers son, so I text Janet (our preachers wife, and a close friend) and tried to get some quick info on him. She gave me a few minor details, and then gave me his number and told me to text him...lol. That was sooo not my style, but I thought it was worth a shot. 
"Hey, I know this is totally random...and not me at all...but I've never had the nerve to come up to you and actually introduce myself at church, so Janet gave me your number. My name is Lacey...and I'd love to talk to you...get to know you a bit...you now have my number if interested! :)"
Slightly ballsy, and a bit stalkerific (totally not a word, but I love it)...but it worked! For 7 months we continued talking/dating and built a friendship, I developed so much patience over that 7 months...good lord! I wanted a relationship, (well, mostly to be FB official...gay...lol) but he wasn't ready. Then in November of last year everything fell together. The past 5 months have been amazing, I honestly don't want to imagine my life without him in it.
