So….summer is winding down. And I
honestly couldn’t be happier to see it go. I’m not really a “summer
girl”. I like the sunshine just as much as the next person, don’t get
me wrong. But really, I just prefer fall over summer. I don’t like to
sweat! I like to wear jeans, scarves, and boots. I love the smell of
pumpkin and anything Wes is cooking in the smoker. Football on the tv,
hunting on the weekends. All things that make my heart so happy. Come
on September 22nd! In the meantime, I guess I should celebrate what has been this summer.
Just
Dandy Events has been crazy busy in so many good ways. I’m beyond
thankful for all the great things I’ve had the opportunity to
participate in over the last few months. I’ve had two beautiful
weddings, with a third coming up next weekend. I’ve styled three shoots
that were gorgeous and such a blast to be a part of. I’ve attended
parties and met tons of new wedding friends. I took a mini road trip
with my #vendorsoulmate and celebrated her accomplishment of going full
time. 2015 has really felt like “my year” as far as JDE is concerned
and this summer has definitely proved that.

On
a more personal level, I’ve spent lots and lots of time with my sweet
puppy. #ourboywyatt is growing like crazy and he’s becoming more and
more fun. I was afraid he would grow out of his snuggly phase super
quickly, but so far that hasn’t happened. He still enjoys his snuggling
time with me every afternoon and then, when Wes finally comes home from
work, he’s glued to him until the next morning. It’s wonderful to have
him as part of our family. I just don’t know what we did before he
came along!
If
you know me and Wes at all, you know that summer isn’t our season for
togetherness. We see very little of each other because he works some
crazy long hours at the marina and, hello….it’s Wedding Season for me. I
see him in the mornings around 6:15 when I hand him his coffee and his
lunch and he heads out the door. And then most evenings I see him
sometime between 9:30 and 11:30 when I hand him his dinner. While fall
brings on hunting season and takes him away from home for days at a
time, at least then he’s not home long enough to make a mess that I’m
left to clean up and I’m only cooking for one person. :) So again,
come on September. But, we’re celebrating our date-aversary this
weekend and I love that boy more than I ever have before. 10 years as
friends, 6 years together, and he’s still the best person in my life.
I’m a lucky girl to say the least.
So
that’s it….my little life update. Things are wonderful and crazy and
the absolute best they’ve ever been. I’m so thankful for this phase of
my life and can’t wait to see what fall brings!
