for work, daws will be mowing a lot this summer. so he got this baby:
k it's not a tractor, but it's probably the closest we'll ever have to one. let's be honest, i think this mower is the coolest thing ever. and let's be honest, i feel like the coolest girl ever to be marrying a man who operates a riding lawn mower.
i love planning my life with dawson. it's crazy to me that around six months ago we sat in my car, in front of pat's house (WHO IS NOW ENGAGED TO MY BEST FRIEND! WOOT WOOT CONGRATS GUYS!!) talking about school and careers. we were both trying to decide what we wanted to major in in school and it was such a relief to be able to talk to someone who was kinda going through the same thing with trying to choose a major. our conversation also led to family. it was almost comical to me how much the two of us wanted the same things in life. we had extremely similar views on working hard and raising a family. we even wanted the same number of kids. although it totally freaked me out to be having that kind of a conversation with a return missionary-a return missionary who i was developing feelings for, for that matter- it felt so good to be able to talk about the future- my hopes, my fears, and my desires- with someone who listened to me and cared.
and now we're looking at homes together and storing his riding lawn mower in my mom's garage. i guess that's just how life works.
