Impressed

Howdy Ya'll!!

 I hope you are having yourself a merry little Tuesday.

I just have to say thank you so very much for all of you incredibly sweet comments yesterday! :) they all put a big smile on my face!

Justin's move was very successful!

He pretty much got everything done except for some boxes left in his room. 

His living room however is suppper nice! 

Im tellin ya I am soooo impressed because he "designed" the whole thing himself!

Yes really!! He picked everything out from the rug to the furniture and the accessories! 

I have pictures to prove to you just how impressive this is!!...

(there is a really neat 3D picture that is gold and black and it will go above the couch)

I call this the man chair! haha

and these are the bar stool that I am absolutely in LOVE with! 

(Thats Justin's Dad btw lol)

CRAZY GOOD RIGHT?!?

He is now calling himself an interior designer haha and in this senario I think he definitely has earned it!

So yeah there you have it folks! I think you should leave the man some blog lovin... just a little... I mean if you at all as impressed as I am!

His room isn't picture ready yet but when it is I will be sharing it with yall too because I am thinking its gonna be just as good looking as this!

Loves Ya'll!!

After Seven Long Months...

TODAY IS THE DAY!!!

Today Justin is FINALLY moving to Stillwater!!!

Which means were both in the same state, city, and basically even the on the same street!

It take less that five minutes to get to each others places 

(which is soo much better than 45min when were both actually living at home)

I am soo excited I can't sit still! I have the biggest smile on my face and I am about as giddy as a girl who got her first kiss!

Justin graduated from his tech training school this past Wednesday and I cant even begin to tell you how proud I am of that manly stud!

Seven months ago we were saying goodbye as he left for basic and now we're finally beginning an "everyday" life together!

In March Justin left for basic and was there for two months. He didn't have any kind of communication whats so ever except for writing snail mail letters and an occasional 5-15 min phone call on a sunday which was always to his mom. I wrote Justin everyday and would be jumping up and down in the middle of the street when I would get a letter from him (I received a total of 10! - which is pretty good compared to most!) 

After the two months had painfully and slowly gone by Justin's parents and I went down to San Antonio to see him graduate from basic! It was one of the best trips ever! When we finally saw each other it was like we handout skipped a beat and we just had soo much to catch up on! I can't really put into words how amazing it was being together again!

This was the first time we saw each other since he had left!

(BEST HUG EVER)

Justin actually got to come home for a few weeks before he left for Missouri and let me tell ya those few weeks were like heaven and 100 pumpkin lattes mixed together kind of bliss compared to the previous months! but then He had to leave once again! This time for five months but he would be able to have his phone and he promised we would talk everyday if possible! So it was just .00000000000000001 times easier to let him go. 

It was actually just me and him at the airport the morning he left for Missouri. We didn't have to say much we just held on to each other, and given each other lots of kisses not really being sure of when we would be seeing each other next. Little did we know how lucky we would be to see each other a lot more than we imagined!! :)

(and we took a kissy picture! lol which is actually one of my favorites)

(sorry if you hate kissy pics! It goes along with the story though!!)

And now the day we have been talking about forever and ever is here!! 

Crazy Right?!

Now I can probably bet you that all of my I's will probably become We's and I hope ya'll don't mind it too much! 

Personally I am getting a little tired of the word "I" but I might be a little bias! ;)

 I hope you all are having a fabulous Monday!!

xo.

Daddy's Girl

Happy Fall!!!

and

Friday!!

I think this has to be one of the best Fridays ever with it being the first day of Fall and the start of my much needed weekend!!

Anywho some of you might remember me saying something about my daddy-o coming to visit me yesterday...

Well he did come and we had a Great night together!

I am a complete Daddy's Girl and I have been since day one basically! 

My Dad and I pretty much have the same personality and so I think thats what make us click so well.

(I am not denying I have several qualities like my mom and we click in our ways too but that is a whole other post)

To start our evening off my dad took me to one of my favorite restaurants here in Stillwater called Eskimo Joes!

Have you ever heard of it or been there?! If you haven't you have to go! and let me come with you! ;)

My dad order the Fowl Thing (chicken sandwich) and when it came out it was HUGE!

(Im telling you Im not exaggerating)

This is my Daddy ready to eat the massive thing!

I had a burger and some of the best fires ever! I don't know why but I have a strong obsession with Joe's french fries and ranch. I think I would eat them everyday if possible!

I had meant to ask for our waitress to take our picture together but It was a little busy and I didn't get the chance :/ next time I guess!

After our super yummy dinner we went back to my apartment to change and get ready to run around campus.

A little over a year ago my dad really started to go into this health kick and started working our a lot. He wasn't over weight or unhealthy in my opinion but it was just something he really wanted to do. 

His dad, my Grandpa, passed away when I was just a year old from heart problems and I think my dad wants to make sure he really takes care of him self so he can make sure he will be around for a long time! Which I am more than proud of him for doing!

He actually lost a lot of weight (even though there wasn't much to loose in the first place) and he has stayed pretty detected to his new lifestyle. 

Anyway the point of that story is we ran two and a half miles together and let me tell you this 41 year old man complexity put me to same! As embarrassed as I should be I really am not because I am just gleaming with pride! He is a beast and there is no other way to put it.

After our run my dad really wanted to get Ice cream (oh the irony) so we did.

It was a great reward in my opinion especially because i had PUMPKIN ICE CREAM with white chocolate chips!

ooh it was sooo yummy!!

In conclusion we had a perfect Daddy and Daughter night! 

(Thank You Daddy!)

Anyone else out there a Daddy's Girl?! 

Now my dad is off an gone back home and I am off to have a great weekend!!

I hope you all have a very happy weekend! and Ill see yall Monday!

Xo,

Kaitlin Jean

I like Tuesday as the new Monday!

Happy Tuesday Beautifuls!! 

I hope you all had a wonderful Labor day weekend!

I don't know about you all but I could really get used to these three day weekends!! 

I had a wonderful weekend filled with football (OK State won!! Orange Power Baby!) lots of yummy food, friends, family, pillow making, the Bachelor Pad, and a little bit of studying!

I was actually pretty good at being camera ready this weekend too!

I took a ton of pictures at the game... 

waiting to eat at Mexico Joes (the mexican version of Eskimo Joes)

Justin and his friend Neal. Neal is training at the same base as Justin in Missouri and He had not been off a base in 6 months until this weekend! Justin really wanted to bring him home and show him a good time! So Neal I hope you enjoyed hanging with us for the weekend I am glad you came! lol

I cant wait for the rest of the season to evolve!

(if you don't we should still be best friend too)

I hope you all have a great start to your week!

Best.Weekend.Ever.

Hello sweet friends!!

First things first, I missed y'all yesterday and I am so sorry I didn't post! 

This whole moving to a new town and starting school at a new university is kinda taken over my week days but once I get in the grove of things I'll be better! I promise! :)

Now I have to tell you about the best weekend ever!!

 (It was this past weekend to be exact)

The very best part of my weekend was that guy coming to visit me for the whole weekend!

(aka my man Justin)

He got in just in time for us to go to College Fest Friday night! Ill be honest, if he wouldn't have been there I don't think I would have loved going so much. It was just so nice to have him there and just be able to walk by his side with my hand in his! (I have been missing him a whole bunch being here in Stillwater with out him) 

Remember when I mentioned College Fest last Wednesday?  Well that was this past weekend and let me tell you it was awesome!! College fest is a big even that lasts Thursday-Saturday on the outskirts of Stillwater. They have a big stage outside in the middle of a field type area and different country singing bands play while a bunch of us college kids just chill and have a good time. Also there is a country dance club called the Tumbleweed (the place that hosts the events) and after the bands stopped playing everyone goes in there to two step the night away!

My favorite part of the whole event was the dancing! Justin and I are not the best in the world at it but I like to think were pretty good! We haven't really learned how to do a bunch of spins and things like that but we are planning on taking classes when he gets back home for good! We had such a good time moving around that dance floor and I feel like it went by so fast because I was having so much fun! 

After that main event we went to a friends house to hang out with some of our good friends and we just chilled and talked until the wee hours of the mornings. Then we all went our separate little ways and thankfully slept in! (aka sleeping in for me is sleeping until 10) 

Saturday is when the second part of the best weekend ever took place. 

Justin and I decided to have the whole day as just an "us" day! We went to lunch and then walked around to a few OSU shops. Justin ended up buying us both the 2011 game day shirt which I can not wait to wear! (he more than spoiled me this weekend) 

After that we went grocery shopping! I had a blast doing that with him! We got some things to make dinner and then he ended up spoiling me again and stocking up my kitchen! 

We then went back to my place and made dinner together! I never realized how much fun it can be to cook a meal with the one you love! We just enjoyed doing such a simplistic everyday thing together and really made the most out of the moment! I was actually a good blogger and we took several photos of our dinner making skills...

getting the chicken ready

Before we put the chicken in the oven

Our meal all finish and ready to eat!

Almond Crusted Chicken, Sweet Potato Fries, Justin's Special Green Beans and Sweet tea! 

Yummmmmmm!!

Justin kinda had an accident with the ranch and pretty much dumped half the bottle on his plate.

Its a good thing he loves ranch and eats it with everything!

Our first meal at my place, our first meal to completely cook on our own...

and a "good job honey" kiss!

After our wonderful meal we proceeded to have some chocolate pie and watch a movie. It was so relaxing and I really enjoyed just cuddling up with my man for a while!

The next day we ended up driving back to Tulsa so that he could get his truck and so he could go back to Missouri. I didn't want him to leave again :( but he only has one month left before he is done and he is going to be back next weekend for the season opening football game!!

That right there was my best weekend ever, all thanks to my wonderful boyfriend! 

We always have so much fun being together and being ourselves! He makes me feel so beautiful for simply being me and I am so blessed for that! I don't know what I would do with our that man! haven't

I hope you all are doing great and I promise I will try to get my act together soon! I haven't really gotten to read anyones posts the past week and i haven't really gotten to reply to comments either but I cant wait to catch up with all of you pretties!

x's and o's
