Matt's Tour of Longwood: Behind the Scenes!

If you didn't know, Matt has a blog, too.  Right now, he's a Student Blogger for Longwood, but once he finishes up with that, he'll have his own blog.  One cool thing Matt has incorporated into his blog is Vlogs (Video Blogs, for those of you who don't catch on to that...haha).  I was pretty excited to find out that I was going to be there while he was in the first stages of a new Vlog--a tour of Longwood's campus!

It was a lot of fun watching him making the video, even though it seemed like he was talking to himself the whole time, haha.  I didn't think the video would've ended up as long as it was, but then I remember all the times I gave a tour of Longwood, and well, I think Matt covered a good chunk of important Longwood info condensed into 12 minutes!

If you watch the video, I'm sure you'll be able to pick out my favorite part!

*In the first sentence of the blog, "Matt has a blog, too" is linked to his blog.  At the end of that paragraph, "a tour of Longwood's campus!" is linked to his new Vlog.  I don't know why they're not showing up as a links, but they ARE clickable!*

That's how long it's been since the first day Matt and I started dating.

It's crazy hard to believe that we've now been together five and a half years (over a quarter of his life ;) )

But, it's been the greatest! I tell him often that I'm the luckiest girl in the world...or should I be telling him he's the luckiest guy in the world? haha. Kidding!

A look at my week..

To say that I had a really busy week may not be completely accurate, but it sure feels like it! Monday & Tuesday were pretty uneventful inside the house while hurricane rains and winds were going through Virginia and hitting pretty hard in the New York/New Jersey area.  Mom and I did end up going out both of those days (Monday to the post office, Chick fil A and Lowe's and Tuesday to the grocery store, Papa's for dinner and then volleyball practice), but I still got Cabin Fever!  Monday, we did get a few wedding things done.  Nothing too major, just little tasks that we got out of the way and are saved for later ;)

To My Best Friend :

Well Matt. You can officially say it: You have been with (put up with) me for a QUARTER of your LIFE! haha! Do you feel old yet?? Even if I've been annoying, stressed out, energetic, lazy, tired, confused, happy, sad or anything, you've always been there for me. You know me better than I know myself.  And even if we are turning into (oh wait, we've already turned into) that "old couple," I can't think of single other person I'd rather spend my time with!  I'm glad we've been some of the few people who've been able to handle the long-distance relationship for some time, and guess what? We only have a couple more months of that! These past 5 years together have been wonderful, and now I'm lucky enough to spend the rest of my life with you! You are my everything, and you know that ;)

Enjoy a few (okay, a little more than 'a few') pictures of us over the past 5 years! [and Matt, you know I like pictures and you know how many we have of us, so you know it was a challenge for me to narrow it down to these!
