love in the ER



Tuesday night was...unexpected. Husband I found ourselves in the Emergency Room around 11pm. I was experiencing severe sharp pains and I couldn't sleep it off. (Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine.) Nothing that some pain pills and antibiotics won't fix. But that's not what this little story is about. It's about how my love for Brandon grew that night.

Maybe it was because the nurses and doctors kept calling me "Mrs. Crews." (Which I'm STILL getting used to!)

Maybe it was because he made sure I felt comfortable. He fixed my "gown", covered me up with a blanket when I felt cold, etc.

Maybe it was because he just couldn't help but to make me laugh! Oh, and it hurt to laugh! I found myself giggling in the middle of taking all of these tests. Just because.

Maybe it was because he stepped up in my time of need and saved the day (night.) 

All I know is climbing into bed that night, I felt closer to him more than ever. I felt my love multiplying inside of me.

Most of yesterday was spent sleeping. I think I was awake...maybe 4 hours? 
I remember hearing husband waking up for work (poor thing had to be at work by 7am after being at the hospital with me until 1am!)
I remember him kissing my forehead to let me know he was leaving.
I woke myself up enough to blog and watch some Netflix.
I remember falling back asleep before he went to church and waking up to his sweet words when he got home.

Today I wasn't in such a coma-like state. 
I'm not 100% better, but husband has been taking non-stop care of me.
We spent the day snuggled up watching "The Office" 
and he even went and bought some steaks to grill for me.


"In sickness and in health..." Check!

Honeymoon Pt.1

My super new husband and I set out for Tennessee on Sunday, June 12. The drive was loooong (well, for husband at least!) But once we started seeing the flat land of Florida slowly turn into the hills of Georgia, we knew it wouldn't be long until mountains of Tennessee would be surrounding us and it would all be worth the drive!

All pictures were taken by an iPhone using the ShakeIt app. (We couldn't find or afford a REAL polaroid camera, but this worked just as well!) We love the way they turned out!

Our first road trip! Nothing like 8 hours on the road with your best friend!


Road trip must-haves!

First sight of mountains! Maybe I squealed like a little girl...




Dinner first night? Mexican of course!

Gosh, he's cute.


Our little cabin for the week!


I just can't keep my eyes off my hand!

Probably my favorite picture of him. So glad he's mine. 

We may be the only people who go to Starbucks just for hot chocolate and wifi!

(I have bad aim...)

Meet the Crews'!


Second night's entertainment! 


My table art.

Husband's.

Stay tuned for the rest! Goodness, I'm already nostalgic! Oh Husband, can we take off a few weeks?!
