it starts tonight!

I haven't talked about my plan for the next 10 days much because I wasn't exactly sure I was going to go until yesterday.. BUT

Everything worked out.
I finished what I needed to.
I got my shifts at work covered.
Which means...I'm going on a road trip!
People: Arthur, his friend Taylor, and his girlfriend Erika and her brother.
Duration: 10 Days.
States: 13 of em'!
Reason: To pick up Erika, who is moving here for the summer. Their story is adorable, and so are they. Long story short, they have been in a long distance relationship for about 1.5 years and the longest time they have spent together is a little more than a week. And now they get a whole summer!

Our plan is to fly to New York TONIGHT (red eye) and go to Taylor's girlfriends parent's house.
We will spend two nights in NY and then start our road trip back to Eugene. We got a car which means 5 people..in a 5 person car. Comfortable, right?!

I'm not exactly sure where we are staying, or where we are stopping. I'm not sure if they guys are too sure either...but that will be all part of the adventure! I'll try and keep this updated with daily excursions and how the trip has been going. I have a lot to do between now and tonight but I am so excited!

I finished all but one of my finals this week (thankful for prayer and the ability to take my finals early :) ). Next week all I have is a take home final which will be easy to do online. It all worked out so well. And to think I got so stressed over it. There I go again....

I CANNOT wait to start this journey.

I'll keep my thousands of readers posted, don't worry :)

That time when Derek and Katie visited Okinawa...

I think I should start off saying I have the coolest brother ever, and due to the fact that he’s marrying Katie, I guess she’s cool by association. JK. She’s great too. What makes them even cooler is that fact that they came and visited our little Japanese island we call home. (Yes, it’s OURS!) After spending a few days in Tokyo, they flew down south to Japan’s “Hawaii”. I’ll have you know, we checked the forecast the day they were arriving and it said rain for the next 6 days (the length of time they were here for). With lots of prayers, I’m so thankful to say that the weather was amazing the whole time they were here! It was sunny and warm and perfect. Thank you Jesus! Arthur and I met Derek and Katie at the airport, only to be greeted with what I would picture as the Japanese version of them. They walked off with facemasks on and if it weren’t for their height, I may have mistaken them for true Japanese! ;) (see video below) They were s...

Tiffany & Co Bridal Shower

So you've seen my Coral themed bridal shower (For those of you that haven't, you should definitely check it out here ) but as my duties as a maid of honor, I was given the opportunity and privilege to host my cousin's bridal shower. When I asked her what she wanted as a theme- she knew instantly. "Breakfast at Tiffany's". I had no idea how many great ideas I would find on Pinterest under this category, but let me tell you- there was millions! It was so fun. We had it this last saturday at the same place I had mine at- so some of the things look pretty similar, just in a different color. Everyone was asked to wear black which was adorable, and the bride wore a black and white dress so she stood out. She looked so beautiful.

upward focused.
