My Bestie Came to Visit!


If there is one thing I miss just as much as seeing our families, its this girl!  Britney Jo and I were your modern day Mutt and Jeff, attached at the hip before Dustin and I moved to Pensacola.  I have missed her dearly!  The past couple of years have been rather difficult for my girl...RN boards, a nasty break-up, and the loss of her daddy.  While home for Christmas. Last year Britney introduced "this guy, Nathan" she'd been talking to.  He seemed nice, had a sense of humor, and seemed to be like my Britney in the fact he could literally talk to a brick wall!  Over the course of months she would text me, post things on Facebook, and call me about how amazing he was to her.  My smiley Brit was back and then some!  It wasn't until they came to Pensacola together that I realized the full extent of her happiness.  One night while out with our guys, Brit and I began talking about our futures...marriage, having children, starting new jobs. (We're grown ups when did that happen?)   After our money ran out on the jukebox we called it an early night. The next morning Brit shook my awake "I'm engaged!" as she shoved her beautiful shinning ring into my sleep-encrusted eyes!  That day we went to the beach and had an impromptu engagement photo session! Disclaimer: I am obviously NOT a photographer!

                                 

Britney and Nathan, the morning after!
