23 isn’t generally a particular milestone anniversary, but I was 22 years old when we got married, so today means that I’ve spent more years as Mrs. O’Brien than as Miss Purcell, so that’s kind of a big deal.

A smattering of photos of the handsomest boy in the whole world, including two of his puppy pictures with Sasquatch, on what is apparently National Dog Day. We love our Belly Boy.

Happy birthday to my very favorite person in the entire world, the best husband, the best teacher, the best daddy to our two (one excellent and one menaceful) pups.

He’s just so ridiculously stunning.

It’s been a day. I got an automated rejection email from a job I had completed multiple interviews for. Chris went to get new tires put on the car and, on the way out and back home, found an abandoned puppy (open kennel, no food or water, sitting in the middle of the Walmart parking lot). Puppy has been taken in by Germantown Animal Shelter, from where I know she will find a perfect new home. After all that, a trip to Sugar Ghost was in order, and we got to see two of our sweet girls who work there. Time to hold extra tight to our puppy and keep grinding through the job applications.

A whirlwind trip through the Mall of America included meeting the Green M&M and taking a picture in honor of ΑΣΤ’s 16th National President, flying over Norway and the US, creating a customized crayon and marker collection, seeing lots of Legos, and somehow coming home with a giant stuffed giraffe… when something you’ve high-key wanted for the past two decades presents itself at over 50% off, you go for it.
Heading home tomorrow— Milwaukee, Kenosha, and Minneapolis have been lovely, but I’m excited to see my Belly Boy, and I can only imagine how thrilled our house sitter is to not have to see him on the daily. ❤️

A well-spent afternoon in Minneapolis— Nicollet Island (not pictured because we forgot), the Giant Pencil, and Mary Tyler Moore!

I guess I’m done…

As excited as I am for the next step of my life, it’s so weird for me to let go of this one. My life has been changed in so many ways here in Memphis; I’ve met so many new faces, I’ve learned how to be myself, I discovered my passion for photography and sports media, and so much more.
There’s been so many rough patches (as any high school experience) but God has always let me come through the other way, and in even better shape. He’s always given me better friends, and even blessed me with the best boyfriend ever.
Every single teacher here at Houston High has brought me to where I am today, and I would like to thank each and every one of them.
My family, especially my pastoral parents, have been shoving lessons and morals into my head that have lead me to exactly where I’m meant to be. They have taught me scriptures and their interpretations, God’s love, and even my love for Alabama football. Something important they used to tell me was, through everything….

Keep Moving Forward

Arkansas trip so far= glorious. Time with my favorite sister, bubble tea and lake views with Christopher, and, not pictured, the ducks who live at our old apartment and hated me quacking at them still live there and still hate me. #alphasigmatau #arkansas #littlerock #hotspringsarkansas #7brew #summer

Mostly the same faces, about two and a half years apart. Belly Boy had the best day ever this week when some of his very first friends from his puppy days came to visit him. These kids, in both pictures, are some of my favorite people in the world, and I am forever grateful to have been their teacher for part of a year. ❤️❤️ #bellerophonmalone #favoritepeople #ohio
