Welcome back to your blog, Taelor. It's been a few years since you've posted anything. Update me on what has been going on.

haha T CAST IN DA BUILDIN, Y'ALL!
What's funny is I started this blogging thing in 2010 because I felt it was a really good way for me to get my thoughts out and really analyze myself and how I handled situations... basically a journal of sorts. Once I conquered all my trivial decisions in life (or so I thought, come on it was high school) I left the blogging business and handled things on my own. Really the only reason I came crawling back to my blog is because my husband suggested it would be good for me to get my millions of thoughts out again and to keep a document of my life and my learnings. I think it's therapeutic to type my thoughts out and to let the Lord reveal things to me about myself as I am literally sitting here waiting for things to pop into my head. Anyway, that is what this blog is going to be about, life. Just life, the good, bad, hard, exciting, trivial, and full of opportunity thing we call life. (Also, blogs are good to have in preparation for amnesia so I can remember who I am and the things I think. Let's be honest, that's really the entire reason for this blog anyway. haha)

Since my last posts in like 2012 or earlier, I fell in love, graduated high school at that public school I had talked about, went through a mid-life crisis at age 18 and broke up with my boyfriend, moved away to college at Western Oregon University for a double degree in Design and Business with a minor in Spanish (which isn't the medical field as u may have noticed. referencing older posts), came home for Christmas and realized I wasn't even passionate about the degree I was spending so much money on and I fell in love with my ex-boyfriend again, I realized the life I wanted was a life with him serving the Lord and going where He calls us, my boyfriend forgave me and found it necessary for the break up because we individually discovered who we wanted to be and who the Lord was calling us to be, yep you guessed it we started dating again and I moved home from college my first year, and two years later he asked me to marry him! Followed by a year long engagement, AND touch down we're now happily married with two and a half kids, a dog, a white fence, full time boring jobs, and a huge house we'll be paying off for the rest of our lives. Okay fine, that last part was total bologna. We rent a two story 4-plex with two bedrooms and a tiny back yard, drive a 2001 Subaru Legacy Outback, and he works full time for a Construction Home Remodeling Company and I'm a shift supervisor at Starbucks. The thing is, we're really happy. We've been landscaping our back yard and decorating our little apartment.
