I started this blog mainly to document Eric and I's life as newlyweds, to look back on and remember such special moments we have shared together. Since this is my first post of 2013 I think it is only appropriate that I post some of my favorite moments in 2012!
In May, a sweet little boy came into the world and absolutely STOLE my heart! My brother Brent and Sister in-law Julie had their first little boy, Luke Preston Bullard!
Words can't express how much I love this little man. He is the reason I think about moving to Dallas so that I can see him grow up and be there for him every step of the way! Thank you Brent and Julie for giving me such a sweet, lovable and absolutely perfect nephew!
In June, Eric and I FINALLY tied the knot! We definitely had a longer engagement than most people, but it ended up working out perfectly for both of us. June 16, 2013 we will celebrate our 1 year anniversary as a married couple as well as being together for 6 years.
I coached LOTS of volleyball in 2012 and just a couple weeks AFTER I got married I took my volleyball team to the National tournament in Columbus, OH. Here is a picture of the girls after they won the Regional Tournament in Lubbock.
This was a very special time in my life- it was a huge milestone for me to take my very first team to Nationals as a coach! I went almost every year as a player, but the sense of pride I had in these girls after winning the regional tournament was so different than I had experienced while playing!
Right after Nationals- I had one more week left of my very last class at WT. I graduated with my Bachelors and then 3 weeks later found a job! I work at Manning Land which is an oil and gas company. So far I have loved every minute of my job and can't wait to see what the future holds!
In August, one of my best friends that I have known since 1st grade had her bridal shower and continued to prep for her wedding that Ocotober! Here are a couple pictures from the bridal shower and her bachelorette party!
Finally, In October-- Lauren and Collin tied the knot!! It was so fun to be apart of such a special time in their lives! The wedding was beautiful and the reception was so much fun, I almost had withdraws when all of the festivities were over!!
Congratulations to The Gillaspie's!!
2012 was truly a very exciting year filled with "firsts" for me, for my friends and for Eric and I as a couple!! I can't wait to see what 2013 has in store and to be able to document all of the moments along the way :)
