I'm BAAAAACK! Part 1! :)

I've been out of the blog world for over 6 months now.  Nathan and I moved back to our hometown.  We have a cute little house outside of town and can't get Internet or cable out there.  Sooo, I have to do this from my phone or using my parent's Internet.  Thanks Mom and Dad!  :)

A lot has happened since we moved back from Midland.  

Nathan got an amazing job at a great bank in Lubbock.  He loves it!  Thank the Lord for the blessings of this job!  


Banjo turned a year old!!!!!  :)  My sweet boy!  Look at that adorable face!

Happy Birthday, Banjo Bob!

My forever best friend, KatyAnn, got married in Colorado in July.  It was a beautiful wedding!  Miss you, Katy and Luke!

Luke and KatyAnn's Wedding!  :)

My LITTLE brother, Kyler, got married to the love of his life in August.  I still can't believe my baby brother is married!  We are so blessed to have Meagan in the family now!  :)

Ashley Kerby Photography is amazing!  She took our wedding pictures too!

I got a job as a teacher!  I absolutely love it!  I teach a million different things and not everything goes according to plan all the time, but this is exactly where I am supposed to be!  I love my school and students.

In October, I became a crocheting, crazy woman thanks to Mandy over at Better Together.  She posted about a book, and I loved every minute of it! Here are some of the things that I have made...

Sweet William, my older brother's son, turned 6 months old!  How crazy!  I can't believe that little boy is getting so big!

Nathan and I also had a fun Halloween!  We were Mayhem (from the Allstate commercials and Flo from the Progressive Commercials.)  I'm just really proud of our costumes and creativity.  I loved being Flo!

In November, I became a trainer for P31 Fitness.  It is an amazing program that was started by a former LCU alum.  I love that!  The owner of the Lubbock branch has been a friend to my family and I for many years.  She got me involved when Nathan and I moved back in June, and it has been an amazing blessing to me.  If you live in Lubbock or surrounding areas... check out the link!  You will be so blessed!

One of my best friends, Erika, had a baby in November!  Brindle Brown is precious! Congrats Kanyon and Erika!!! I need to see more of this sweet face!

Kyler graduated from LCU.  Dad and Mom have 5 Chaps (almost 6, Meagan graduates in May!) and a Longhorn.  I'm glad they still accept my Longhorn, Nathan!  :)

I have loved reliving these past couple months through pictures, but this post is a tad bit long!  I'll post a Part 2 with Christmas, my birthday and the beginning of 2013!  :)

It feels good to be back!

Happy Birthday, Husband!!! :)

Words cannot express the overwhelming love I have for my husband.  He is one of a kind, and I truly believe that God created us to be a perfect fit.  We have many inside jokes, weird handshakes and moments where we just laugh and laugh and laugh together.  I'm am so happy and thankful for him and the huge blessing he is in my life and the lives of our family and friends.  Happy Birthday, Honey!  I hope you enjoy your 10,227th day of life!

Thank You, Nathan, for waiting for me and praying for me all these years because I was doing the same thing for you!  :)

Happy Birthday!

Love - Kaitlin
