No One Told You Life Was Gonna Be This Way...

By Annadicus @annadicus
  I'm just going to be frankly honest...life is strange, crazy, mixed up, surprising, wonderful, and throws you some weird curve balls. You go through some trying times in life. I've learned to just shut your eyes, pray to God, and keep the ones you love close. That is really all you need in life. God and the ones you love...the ones that love you unconditionally.
  I spent the past few days with some of those people and on Friday I get to see even more of them. I spent Tuesday, Wednesday, and today with Kyle and his family for Independence Day. We ate, swam, ate some more, and spent our time in good company. I love his family and hope to be a part of it one day.
  In a week, Kyle and I are going to see my family. I haven't seen my dad, mom, and sister since the beginning of May. It's been way too long. They live in Nashville and it's 3 hours away from me when I'm at school. They have lived in Nashville for 3 years now and I'm still not used to it. We are so excited to see them soon though. Here are some of the pictures from the past few days with Kyle and his family!

  We had such a great time! I hated to get back to campus and back to work. On my way back to campus I stopped by Goodwill. Gosh I love that store! I found a photo cube and a wonderful, classy, and PINK purse! The photo cube is too cute filled with 5 pictures of the love of my life and myself and the purse is perfect. However, something even more wonderful happened when I was standing in line waiting to check out at Goodwill. I was bored so I grabbed my phone and went to check my email. Remember that Misikko Dream Package giveaway that seemed too good to be true? Well that's how I looked at it anyway. I did the blog post and didn't get my hopes up. Well I got an email that said..."ANNA YOU WON MISIKKO'S DREAM GIFT PACKAGE GIVEAWAY!"
  Oh. My. Goodness. Yes. I. Anna. Dicus. Won. $350. Of. Products. From. Misikko!!!!!!! I could hardly contain my excitement. I wanted to tell everyone in Goodwill but I decided against that. I called Kyle, called my mom, told my besties Sean and Alisha, I told Samantha and Brittany about it while grocery shopping, and of course I tweeted about it! In case the giveaway is a blur to your memory you can read the blog post that won the JACKPOT here! I got so lucky with this one and I'm too excited to have a top notch straightener and curling wand! I will DEFINITELY be experimenting with them as soon as I get them in the mail!
  I also wanted to say thank you so much to the lovely Mrs. White over at Little Homemade Housewife for nominating me for the Versatile Blogger award! Tomorrow I will elaborate on the details of the award tomorrow! Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July holiday. I'm signing off and hitting the hay!
