Dommelstraat 23B, our home; the place where so many memories were made. You often hear songs about first homes and I guess until you have that “first” home with the one you truly love, you don’t get it. But now we do. Our memories will remain strong and the love we grew there will hold steadfast. And on May 1st, we set out for our big trip, set to see so many beautiful places and incredible moments, leaving behind “our home”, telling ourselves that we must move forward, yet appreaciate all the memories we made. Happiness bloomed in the Dommelstraat, but the seed of the flower we will replant in every place we are together, leaving a trail of flowers.

Konings dag, Eindhoven, The Netherlands
In celebration of the birth of our King Willem Alexandar, we wear orange, drink loads, laugh with friends and dance dance dance. Last Konings Dag, I was tormented by a terrible stomach flu, so this year, we went all out. Inviting friends over to start the day with Mojitos and snacks, the day turned into night and the party still went on! Waterguns, pints, loompjes, and orange everything, oh yeah- our party pants!:) So much fun and I am so thankful for the amazing friends we have. Shout out to Dames Twee and Pusphaira.

Eindhoven, The Netherlands
On February 12th, 2013, I made my official move to Eindhoven, The Netherlands to be with the man I love. And just like the culminating spring seasons of the Netherlands, my move similarily brought us to a place where we could mututally experience the first spring season of the seed of “us”.
I am so absolutely blessed to be forever paired with such a beautiful person. I appreciate everything about Rob, for the person he once was, is today, will be tomorrow and the rest of days. Everything about our lives together is seamless; loving him is as necessary and natural as breathing. Whatever obstacles come our way, we know we can face them together and work through them together. I am forever thankful for him and the love we share.
