Bloom

When I look back on my little life, I’ve noticed that there were times when I felt like my life was blooming and after awhile I got used to it. This year has been a year of big changes. I got married, moved across the country to a totally different place.

I have always considered myself as someone who is very good at getting used to new environments because my life has been filled with so many changes… But with change comes the many opportunities to be reflective and thankful. Because of change my life has blossomed in a way that it hasn’t before.

I got engaged Christmas Eve and that was exciting! We were engaged for 6 months and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it.

June

In the month of June

I will walk down the aisle with my beloved

The flowers will have bloomed

The pastel tapers will be lighted

We will dwell beneath the shadows of the shaded trees

We will breathe in the sea breeze

Life will be painted with the hues of the Oklahoma sunset

For that is where I will be.

This was my June. Also in June we went to the New England coast for our honeymoon. I highly recommend going there at least once in your lifetime.

The rest of the year has found me in Oklahoma. I love it here….i belong here and it is home…do not get me wrong, I still long for my days in New York.

I hosted a tea party in September with Kaycee before she got married and moved all the way to Idaho. That was a lot of fun.

I recently hosted a holiday dinner at Anne’s place. I love hosting a ladies only party. It gives me so much joy.

I started nursing school at the end of August and it has been a whirlwind of emotions and also a lot of studying and hard work.

This year hasn’t just been filled with the blooming of flowers. There have been many times when I have questioned the choice that I have made, but every time I remind myself good choices take a lot of effort and it is worth it.

Love, Abigael
