Hi! This picture is of me and my smiling face.....yes we see that Katrina :) but what you didn't know, and maybe you do, is that there is happiness behind that smile and a progression of acceptance. I will explain simply, I'm wearing a hat, a tank top and you can't see in this picture but shorts. Yeah so what you might be saying.....well for me that is a big deal. It shows that its way to hot in Flagstaff now lol but seriously it shows how I've become a little more accepting of who I am and how I look. Its been a journey and it has a ton to do with having someone in my life that truly accepts me, all of me. With that comes happiness and self confidence and joy from within. Anyways I just wanted to share that little bit of truth that I came to realize when I went out looking cute in my shorts and converse :)
Here is the guy that is responsible for more smiles and laughter in my life these days.
I love going bare foot, especially when there is a chance outside in the grass. We met up with some friends and went to the Lights in the Lawn to celebrate a non-fireworks 4th of July. Its been so dry that there is danger of burning down Flagstaff AZ, no seriously its been bad with how little moisture we have not gotten.
That's my friend, Dez, she is fun to be around. Her family is fun with her two little ones. We spent most of the time watching them run around and play.
I love this guy being apart of my life :)
Last year around this time he and I were just getting to know each other. Dezi and her family were out of town for the 4th. We all had enjoyed the rodeo together. I was so nervous and it was awkward because neither one of us knew how to be after not "dating" for so long. Last year I was at home sitting on my couch trying to find the courage to text Ben and ask him to go with Sara and I to the Light on Lawn but I didn't. He said if I had asked he would of gone.....Last year Sara and her friend and I went. The girls and I had fun. It was still a time of venturing out for me and dealing with moving on.
Dezi and I
The four of us! There is always so much laughter when we are all together!
It was a great day!
