A Life Update!

Things ARE and continue to be SO busy! I swear I never stop!
Here's what I've been up to lately!

1. Loving my new job!
Every single day in the Registrar's Office is a learning experience, and the best part...I really enjoy it! I love helping parents, I love getting to know students, and I love my co-workers. They are all seriously amazing. I am so so lucky.

2. Crossing goals off my list!
Just in the past few days, I marked two more tasks off my First Year in Boone to-do list.

1. Last Wednesday, I tried a new restaurant with my friend Alex and a new friend, Emily! It was completely spur of the moment, but I'm so glad I was able to meet up with them. We had dinner at this restaurant/bar near campus called tApp Room. Though our dessert was a bit overpriced, everything was really tasty, and I would definitely go back again.

2. Yesterday, I crossed off "Do something that benefits my entire office," when I brought two dozen donuts for breakfast. They were a hit! I took them around to each person, as I handed out my Christmas cards. It was so much fun to surprising everyone with a tasty treat!


 
3. Exercising
I knew when I moved back to Boone, I wanted to be a lot more active and develop a routine. I have been doing just that! I go to the gym almost every day after work for about two hours. I have never been a runner, but slowly I've been trying to get back into it. Last week, I ran 9 miles! Yes, 9! and I've already ran 3 so far this week. I am so proud of myself!

4. Wedding Planning
As many of you know, I also work for a wedding planner, and I love it! Last weekend, I got to experience one of the most beautiful weddings I've seen thus far, and I work a lot of weddings! It was a winter wedding with a beautiful southern bride! Here are a few pictures I snapped on Saturday!

So beautiful!



Also, Happy 50 Weddings to my amazing boss, Leigh!
What a great accomplishment!

I am so happy to hear that you are enjoying your job in Higher Education...I must admit I am quite jealous :) Those wedding pictures are stunning...I saw them on your Instagram and was super impressed! I need to get on the running train like you, I have only been to the gym once this week! I started my blog up again, if you feel like checking it out :)

Look at you go!! Yay for finding the motivation to get to the gym so regularly -- I am seriously lacking in that department! Also, I found that over the summer when I was running regularly, the app "Couch to 5K" worked really well and taught me how to pace myself and become a real runner! I highly recommend it if you are looking to get really into it!

Can you send me some nice, hot Krispy Kremes please!? I bake cookies/muffins all the time for the girls at my store, and it definitely scores me some brownie points with my boss!

So glad that you're happy!

xoxo
