Feeling Grateful

Over the past couple of weeks I have been hearing about a friend's (continued) break-up and recently found out about a family member's newly diagnosed medical condition. Both incidents have evoked many feelings for me, mostly sadness and empathy, but it has also made me really grateful for my fiancee (Alson) and dog (Kona). They both are the most important things in my life, and I know without them I would be nothing.

Since I will likely be referencing both of them in many posts to come, I figured I would share some pictures so all my readers (I'm pretty sure only Michelle reads my blog, but a girl can hope for an audience) know who I am talking about.

I'm such a lucky girl!
