Happy Fall! So many awesome things happening in latley!


This coming weekend the hubs and I are headed to Cinicinatti to visit some great friends!! Then the weekend after that me and some of my best girls are headed to Ikea to do some damage!! I'm so excited for both. If only the work week would go ahead and speed up!!

Here are some photos of the latest. We got some fall photos taken of the two of us this past week as well.

 

 

 

{the good life}

We have been up to so much fun latley!!

We have been doing alot to the house as well! We get new carpet on Saturday and then we should be all set with projects for awhile!!

Here are some photos of the latest!

{Ramblings}

Sometimes in life there are people who don't 'get the hint'-- people you no longer want to be associated with, or be around. Your common interests don't exist or never did exist, you simply say hi to them out of sheer obligation, and they all around do nothing to serve your life. You need to get rid of them.

Plain and simple :)

{big things}

Big things are happening with the Murphy's! A little late on this post, but better late than never :)

We bought a house. We fixed up a house. We moved into our house :)

Aside from house stuff we are thoroughly enjoying married life and we are shocked how fast time is flying by! Enjoy some photos :)

{Easter}

This weekend was great--we witnessed the marriage of a great friend and continued on to celebrate Christ with great people on Sunday!

{Boundaries}

So, excuse me while I vent. What is a blog for if not expressing your true feelings. Bear with me.

I believe some people have no concept of said, "boundaries" they cannot accept the personal space one needs with family, personal time and space. Of course, my family is THE single most important thing in my life, and when someone or something compromises the way I feel about them, or anyone in it...believe you me! IT IS ON! I do not take that lightly.

Latley, I feel as if boundaries are really being crossed in certain ways. I need not say more, but they are. Friends, I am struggling to really "care" to keep any sort of communication with the person. They say "Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me". I refuse to be fooled twice.

There are certain milestones in my life, and my husbands life that we would like to share with family, and family alone. It is frustrating when that is sometimes nearly impossible.


ahh. someday.

[phases of life]

Some are more fun than others! Ex. Getting married. A more stressful example would be purchasing a home. It's all fun until you make a decision....offer here, counter there, tears here, arguments there! I'm sure it is all worth it! We are really excited to find the perfect home and we find out in 8 hours if this "perfect" house is infact the "perfect" house for us!!!

[spoiled]

That is the only way to describe our kitten [read: fat baby] Cheddar.

I ran hard the other day and had sore legs so I slept with my heating pad on. Fire hazard. Anyway--she immediately took over the heating pad and has since then been making it her "home" she loves heat.

This is what I find this morning. Ched on her heating pad playing on iPad. Unreal.

[love]

Valentines this year promoted health for the Cat and myself! Kyle got me a hydration belt so I can hydrate while training for my upcoming 25k!!

It was so fun celebrating a day early with my husband! [fun to say]. He spoils me everyday and I love him to pieces :)

More!

Randomness at its finest!!!

The hubs and I decided to take an impromptu honeymoon/kyles birthday to Mexico :) literally hours after our decision we arrived in Detroit for our early flight!!

Bonus? My good friend and her fiancé are meeting up with us Friday for lunch :) how often does our world get to collide!

Pictures to come--for now? No phone--only sun, food and adult beverages!!

Andddd

We did it :) officially Nicole Murphy!
Here is a sneak peak of our night!

Two days

Before I marry my best! This is so crazy to me!! In the mix of one of the craziest weeks of my life I also took a job offer at my old place of employment! It feels like home in the accounting department so I'm looking forward to being back!!

Pictures of the wedding to come!!!
