Life Currently

It has been over a year since the last time I've posted on here! Life for Josh and I has changed SOOOO much it is crazy! I was going to write up a big long story about the past year, but if you are anything like me I would much prefer to look through pictures! So, what I am going to do is give you a run down of our year through pictures! ENJOY!

We took a super fun trip to one of my favorite places on Earth, DISNEYLAND! (Lets be real here we all know Pittsburgh is my favorite place on Earth!)  We had such a good time, I even convinced Josh to wear Mickey ears! (May 2012)

 Seriously the BIGGEST/MOST EXCITING thing to happen to us this past year is...WE GOT ENGAGED! AHH I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with Josh! I got so lucky! (June 3, 2012)

  We got to celebrate the marriage of two of our good friends Amber and Dan. I was also lucky enough to be one of Amber's bridesmaids! She was a BEAUTIFUL bride and we had an awesome time at their wedding! (June 2012)

 Josh left for 2 months on RIMPAC and I was able to meet some pretty awesome spouses from his ship! (July 2012, yes this is from the homecoming but I LOVE this picture)

While the guys were on RIMPAC us ladies ran the San Diego Color Run. It was a blast! I swear I thought my hair was going to be permanently dyed blue! (June 2012)

  

I ran my very first half marathon! Since then I've run 4 more! (January-August 2013)

Josh and I took our engagment photos at Crystal Pier and Mission Beach! They turned out perfect! (Anyone needing awesome and affordable photographers in the San Diego area we have your gals!) (August 2012)

 After living in San Diego for 2 years I finally got to see snow! (At SeaWorld's Christmas celebration of course!) (December 2012)

 Maggie and I enjoying the 65 degree weather in December! SeaWorld's Christmas celebration was seriously awesome, I loved these white Christmas trees! (December 2012)

Happy 23rd Birthday Josh!! We celebrated with an ugly Christmas sweater party! (December 2012)

We celebrated our 3rd Christmas together! Our last  one as singles! (December 2012)

We celebrated NYE in Pittsburgh! I just love going home! I miss these ladies so much! Its always great when we spend time together! (January 2013)

Josh and I got to go to a Steeler's game while in town! It was FREEZING, but we had a great time! Gotta love those Steelers! (January 2013)

 We went hiking in the beautiful Torrey Pines reserve with our friends. The hike ended with a walk on the beach! Its so beautiful here! (February 2013)

Harley is growing like a bad weed! He is 130lbs, ya you read that right 130lbs!! He's our big baby! (March 2013)

Josh and I added a first to our list...we ran our first race together!   We ran the San Diego 5K.  Josh was so motivating the entire time, I loved having him at my side! (But when don't I?!) (March 2013)

I spent the day on the ship with Josh for his family day! It was cold, windy and rainy all day but I still had a really good day! It think I confirmed on this day that I am NOT meant to be a sailor! (March 2013)

The next biggest event to happen this past year was in April Josh left for deployment. :(  As prepared as I thought I was I never could have imagined how hard it was to say "see ya later". I'm not going to lie it really stinks to have him away, but this experience has done nothing but strengthen our relationship. (April 2013)   

Haley and I spent alot of time at the beach once the guys left! I swear the beach makes everything better! (April 2013)

 Since Josh has been away he has been growing a epic stache (for him at least!).  I know I always say its nasty but to be honest, it's starting to grow on me! ;) I'd never tell Josh that though! (May 2013)

 Josh with his buddy/roomie Nick! Josh learned to surf in Thailand! I am so jealous of all the cool places and things that Josh is doing! (June 2013)

I had to say another "see ya later" to my friend Haley. Her and her husband moved to the East coast. Josh and I were both soooo bummed to see them move. (June 2013)

Josh got his SWO pin and promoted to LTJG! I'm so proud of him for all of his hard work! (June 2013)

 Josh and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary of being together. Believe it or not we have not spent ONE, nope, NOT ONE anniversary together! Even though he was away he still made the day completely amazing! I am so lucky to have this guy! (June 2013)

I've been spending alot of time at the beach. I feel like I am just a little bit closer to Josh when I'm at the beach.  Plus you can't be unhappy at the beach. No matter how upset I may be, going to the beach always makes everything better! (August 2013)

And that pretty much catches you up on the past year in our crazy, busy, and amazing lives! These next few months should be super exciting, so I'm going to do my very best to update this as much as I can!
