Soooooo... you may [or totally may not...] have noticed that something's a little different around here - nay, cleaner and sharper looking. After [truly] numerous hours of sprucing, I've finally come up with the new look I've been wanting for my little blog. And I very much hope that you all enjoy it as much as I do!
[...especially the social media button thingys, cause - no joke - that part legit took the longest, and they look SOOO COOL!]

props to the best man ever - Papa Bear!
Have I ever mentioned how awesome my Dad is?? I've always known, but little moments lately have really opened my eyes to it much more than normal.
Awesome Dad moments:
Taking it upon himself to go on a total life-changing diet and still sticking with it after starting months ago.
He's looking so healthy, energetic, and just happier now.
This one is pretty neat to me since my Dad has now
become all the more of a role model!
Along with the diet, he's also taking it upon himself to help my mom out more with household chores.
This makes me the absolute happiest of anything. The
moment came when I was home and watching him do
laundry. He usually never does it, so I asked why.
Response: "Just so your mom doesn't have to always do
it, and keep going up and down the stairs." Right after
that, I watched him clean out the cat's litter box [another
thing he never does]. Totally sweet, right??
Unbeknownst to me, he wanted to make a little trek up to my new apartment with my mom to check it out, aka make sure the building won't crumble and/or burglars won't do horrible things to me/my stuff.
To be fair to Papa Bear, I am his first born AND his only
daughter. That special place-in-heart that everyone has
has gotta be filled by me! ;)
Lastly, he's somewhat changed how he hugs me. They've always been perfectly good, but now the hugs are lasting longer.
Could be that I recently graduated from his alma mater.
Could be that boyfriend Owen is exactly the man he's
always wanted for me. Could be that he's been thinking
about his future grandchildren [......YEP]. Whatever the
reason, it's been totally appreciated and enjoyed!
On a day dedicated to fathers, you certainly take the cake!

pardon my hiatus...
Oh boy. It feels SO dang long since I've posted anything - [so sorry to you wonderful followers, as well as my poor little bloggy]. You all truly are wonderful, and I can safely say that even years from now I will still remember you followers who gave me my confidence to join in the blogging world.
I am one heck of a grateful lady.
I've been feeling rather sentimental lately - mainly because I've been packing up all my stuff for the huge haul to the new apartment. I made a promise to myself that I would get rid of a lot in order to make room [or, in all reality, to upgrade from the less-than-classy college-esque home style i once had]. The hiatus came unintentionally due to this, along with numerous errands and trips home. Not to worry though, that new apartment will be mine within a couple of weeks [muahahahahaha!]. Until then, I have quite a few photo goodies and "awww"-worthy posts to share! Stay tuned?
