Who I'd like to meet:
believe nothing just because a so-called wise person said it. believe nothing just because a belief is generally held. believe nothing just because it is said in ancient books. believe nothing just because it is said to be of divine origin. believe nothing just because someone else believes it. believe only what you yourself test and judge to be true.
Happy anniversary wedding day buddy! I love the video- those are the most precious words to hear! You both look great and so happy. Congrats on it all!! <3
I flew into Sac then went to Chico about a month ago for my friends bridal shower. I know I really want to come home soon. I know my mom is flying me home so I can be at Grandpa's b day in a few months, but how random right before I checked your comment I was making a card for you Ryan and Ellie for Easter...crazyness. How is my little Ellie belly <333 Love you guys xoxo
awww bryn... thanks for your comment. it means a lot. things are tough right now but i'm seeing a counselor on campus to talk stuff out.
and... my parents are moving to north LA! isn't that crazy? don't worry though, pat's parents are still in norcal, and it's looking like we *might* be moving north of sacramento so i'll be seeing the hollis-lack family. =)
Yes of course I remember you!! LOL I'm sorry I haven't been down to see you guys yet, life's hectic, as I'm sure that you are already aware of that. I'm always checkin your blog and flicker to check up on you guys though. I only have about 3 more weeks of school left then spring break, so you should be seeing me very shortly. It kills me that I haven't seen Ellie yet. I love you cuz, and your little one too. ;)
LoL, You are too funny! I have to call my mom right away and tell her what you said, she started cracking up!! But Thank You, I still feel like Im on cloud 9... Still in shock that it happend! If only the jewler would hurry up with sizing my ring! ((geez)) But we are thinking next year, summer time and YES my new family is all invited! :0) So how does it feel being a mommy?? Do you feel like a pro now? LoL I hope everything is going just wonderfully for you and Ryan! Give Ellie a great big hug and kiss for us all! Take care, x0x0x ~Crystal
I know-we've been waiting on them forever! I guess the weepies are lost in baby land for a little longer. We just saw Adele a few weeks ago. She was incredible!! Do you like her music? Things are great here! My hubby is going back to school full time so it's tough deciding whether or not now is the time for babies, but seeing sweet Ellie makes it seem like an easier decision. How is it to have finally met her? Are the first weeks as difficult as everyone says? I'm sure she's already a weepie fan in the making! Can't wait to see more pics of her. Take care! <3
congratulations bryn!!! my little one was born on the 15th. i have been watching your journey... its so exciting isnt it... i would love to catch up with you and hear your amazing story! email me with your number if you get a chance! do you have a moby wrap? they are the best things ever!! perfect for everywhere!!!
