I needed this..

Today, Tanner and I got to spend time together.. alone. I know that sounds silly to most people.. heck, it sounds silly to me.. but I really needed it. Since neither of us has our own place there are always people around.. and that's not a bad thing, but as other couples can attest, its hard to truly be "you" (in this sense I mean you as in 'the two of you') in a group. Especially if its with parents and siblings. What is sad is that we didn't talk about anything profound, or important.. we just shared small talk and cuddled. But it is guaranteed to be the highlight of my week!!

That is probably the thing I'm looking most forward to when we get married. Being alone together.. Locking ourselves away in our apartment, and getting to be us, and learning what us is all about. I imagine lots of married couples tend to take being together for granted. Probably lots of couples in general do.. in fact, I know I have. Heck, last month I was taking it for granted.. but now, I am going to cherish and look forward to every minute we get. Whether it is riding in Tanner's truck, having the house to ourselves for a few rare minutes, or those wonderful days, like today, where we get to talk and nap and talk some more. :)

So, be alone together this week.. and enjoy it like you did when you only got that on a rare occasion!!
