Few & Far Between

Well....here at the Nicholson (temporary) home, we have made it through another week and are bravely starting a new one!

I'm going to attempt to play catch-up!

Two weekends ago, Aaron and I attended a benefit for one of his co-workers in Fayetteville on Friday night, which we made into a day trip to Fay since he had a few meetings.

I went and got a mani/pedi done to kill some time. Plus the weather was cold and drizzly and the nail salon sounded like a good escape.




That night we went to the benefit and DID NOT TAKE ONE SINGLE PICTURE.
(I know...what is WRONG with me?!)

Here are the other, non-important pictures that I did take...
new hog @ Hog Haus Brewery

my "old" name! how funny!

We drove back from Fayetteville and decided to stop at my parent's house in Conway. After visiting with them Saturday morning, we headed back to Bryant to get ready for a tailgate/watch party hosted by one of our couple friends. 

a good time was had by all, even though we lost!

Then this week happened....
it was painfully slow and we are so glad it's over.

EXCEPT

Joshua came to stay with us on Tuesday night and that requires a post of its own! :)

This weekend was a lot of lounging and studying (for me) and sleeping (for all) so needless to say, we feel well rested and ready to tackle this week!

Sorry for the few & far between posts,
but I have a feeling it will probably be this way for a while until we are more permanently settled.

Playing Catch-Up

OH.MY.WORD.

I reeeeallly need to post more. I feel like we have been going and going lately and so when I have time to relax, I don't want to do ANYTHING, including post about my life on le blog. 

Let's play some catch-up, shall we?

Aaron got us tickets to Lady Antebellum in LR for a "belated" anniversary present. SO SWEET. It was so much fun even though we were in "The Pit" and had to stand the whole time. It was a great night!


Thompson Square


Darius Rucker



Lady A



hot & sweaty but we had a blast!

some great friends/old college roomies.
love these girls!

It was a great concert! We had a blast despite having to deal with all the redneck drunks making fools of themselves (which is as to be expected at a country concert)! 

Also, I ended up staying a few extra days in Bryant/Conway helping my mom paint and take stuff over to the new house. I will post pictures of that later because I really want to post pictures after they "officially" move in.

I am so excited for my family. They finally found a house in Conway and I believe that when it is finished (painted/decorated/etc) that they will LOVE it. I am pretty sure they have already gotten their money's worth out of the pool. Hopefully one day when Aaron and I get a house, we will be able to afford a pool because: 1) Aaron is a huge kid at heart and loves the water and 2) Marley LOVES pools now. ;) Whoopsies.

We also spent 4th of July with my family in Conway at the new house. Although it was just a day trip, it was so fun. I didn't take my camera, but I got some cool shots of the boys doing "tricks" on the trampoline, diving board, and off the trampoline into the pool. It was nerve-wracking but they were being safe and having a blast. 

One last thing, Aaron's grandfather had a minor heart attack last weekend.  He went in to the hospital for some testing and they found 4 blockages. He will have to have bypass surgery in about a month. If anyone is reading this, please pray for his family and especially that his grandfather (we call him "Poppa") will get lots of rest and be strong enough to go through with the surgery. 


Hopefully I will have more exciting news in the near future....
like about a potential move. 
BUT
we will just have to wait and see.
