You know what's next.

Last year I got married. December 14th, 2013 will forever be the day I married Mr. Brent Johnson and the only person on earth that perfectly accepts my irreversible flaws. The man of all mans.

Exactly 6 months and 5 days earlier, I gained the most amazing baby nephew, Nixon Joseph Breyer. He's now walking fastly, "talking" loudly, and eating enormous amounts of organic (aka natural, plain and boring) foods. Nixon has the curliest hair, just like his momma, but it's blonde like his dad. He's the best mix of Julia and Greg. Oh! & he is the most stylish person I know.

Speaking of new additions, in April we rescued the newest member of the J family and his name is Boomer, Boom Boom, Booms, No! He is a black lab mix and our white tile is forever going to be different shades of grey. Sophie, our other brilliant Shih Tzu, Yorkie Poodle mix, loves Boom most of the time. Shih no longer gets dropped off at Grandma's house for the day while Brent and I are at work. Shih stays at home with her new bigger than her little brother Boomy. Together they sleep the day away in puppy harmony.

I'm on my last year of my Masters program (+ PPS Credential + LPCC License). I've never been so exhausted in my life. I've learned more about myself in these past years than I did in the quarter of century I lived prior. I guess if I don't build a career with my counseling degree and/or credential and/or license, I at least had the pleasure of really meeting and getting to know me. I'm alright!

Mr. Brent man earned a promotion at his work and he is currently striving for even bigger and better things. More details later. He truly and continually proves to be the most amazing man I've ever known. We've been together here and there for 9 years and I look forward to our future of chaotic life.

Last, but not least, of all this newness... we bought a house! We actually did this first, no second. Masters program, House, Nixon, Marriage, Boom.... What's next? You know what's next. ;)
