spoiled rotten

Reasons why my life really is Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows:
1. My Master's thesis was approved by Tulane and I officially graduated TODAY!
2. I found out that I am not, as I previously thought, one of six full-timers at Anthro...but the one and only full-time employee (aside from managers, obviously). I am completely blown away by this incredible compliment and the amount of faith the company seems to have in me to give me such a wonderful opportunity! I am loving every second of it and learning so much.
3. My entire family just visited New Orleans to send Chandler off on her year-long missions trip, and I couldn't have asked for a better time. My parents rented an amazing house in Mid-City and we spent the weekend catching up, swimming, lounging, and laughing until we couldn't breathe. It was so wonderful to be with everyone, and I can't wait until the next time we're all together again (at the wedding!)
4. I FOUND MY WEDDING DRESS!!!! Obviously can't go into details since C is a regular reader of this blog, but it is heavenly. I never thought I could be so infatuated with a dress...but, I just can't help it! And we found the PERFECT bridesmaids dresses at the boutique, so the deal was even sweeter! True story: I had drawn a picture of what I wanted a few weeks ago, thinking I would get them made...and these are literally the carbon copy of that picture, down to the fabric and small details, and they're not going to cost an arm and a leg. I thought I was dreaming! Such an incredible day.

Life is sweet...go out and enjoy it!
