2014 a Year in Review

As I sit here madly in love with 2015 already, I cannot help but long for the memories of 2014. 2014 brought me the best memories of my life, and as ready as I am to welcome a new year I would like to take a post to review the past. 

January, bridesmaid dress shopping with the most amazing women. 

February, deserves many photos! February I read our engagement announcement in the local newspaper, I watched a family embrace their standing son for the first time since November 2012, and we were able to take standing engament photos. 

March, between a visit from two of my besties, and my church bridal shower it was an incredible month. I picked out my viel, and celebrated Kaleb and I's future with the same church family that has supported me my entire life! 

April, I began my job at Moji a bang salon, I celebrated my Mom's 40th birthday, and I experienced an amazing photo shoot that would later be the most perfect gift for my future husband. 


May, was a busy one! With only a month until the wedding I felt like I was losing my mind most of the time. But on May 24 we spent the day laughing, loving, and celebrating. As my best friend, and maid of honor hosted the most amazing bridal shower. 

June, We said I Do! 


July, we participated in the Victory Over Paralysis walk a thon. We enjoyed many visits from the bestie, and my amazing family. 

August, we watched two amazing friends say I do! Congratulations again Mr. And Mrs. Dugan! My amazing husband also wrapped up his journey with the NRN, neuro recovery network, after 200 sessions! 

September, we disneymooned! We experienced the most magical trip together in the happiest place on earth! 

October, Kaleb was able to experience one of my most favorite events, the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. That very same trip we took a little visit to off Broadway and saw wicked! 

November, we celebrated thanksgiving with the Kaleb's amazing family, and my first holiday with the Wilson's as a Wilson. 

December, was enchanting! We went home and celebrated Christmas with my family, which was perfect. But even more than that we celebrated our first Christmas has husband and wife. My sweet brother in law proposed to his sweet girlfriend, and her precious daughter.



Thank you 2014 for being so very memorable, wonderful, and perfect! 

Cheers to 2015!

Learning Curve

As I sit here this morning trying to put all the words that are in my head onto this paper I am having a hard time coming up with the right way to describe what I am hoping to change/do with this blog in this new season of my life. See writing has always been a passion of mine , but finding the time , finding the bravery , and just doing it is where I have struggled. I have kept this blog as more of a personal place where I write about what life is like as a Wilson here on Dusk Way , but over the years I have had dreams of making it into more of a lifestyle blog . I have so many passions and thoughts that run through my head on a daily basis but fear has held me back time and time again. Fear of not being a successful blogger , fear of what friends and family would think , and most of all fear of letting myself down . But now it is time to put that fear aside and just write, so hopefully this blog will be going through a learning curve . Ideally this blog will move from...

My Side Of That Horrific Day

Today is September 1st which in it of itself brings so many wonderful things. The start of football, which is just absolutely perfect, the start of pumpkin spice everything, and the start of Spinal Cord Injury Awareness month. This month is something that honestly up until four years ago I had no idea existed, but four years ago we joined a very rare club and our lives have looked different since. Over 200,000 people live with a SCI in the United States and Kaleb is just one of them. The next month my goal is to share my side of Kaleb's injury, Kaleb's side of his injury, the road to recovery, and where we are today.  November 10th 2012, the day our world changed forever. This was one of those days that I will remember every moment, every detail, and every emotion. I had just turned 21 five days prior and was still living in the birthday celebration glow. That morning was busy with trying to get things done through out the day so that I could head to a family member's ho...

It's Okay to Not Be Okay

How often do we go through life pretending that everything is great; we post only the best photos, we smile when we would rather cry, and we float through life faking it the best we can. We run into friends at church on Sunday mornings and chat about how wonderful we are and how great everything is, but we leave out the fact that all we could really use is a hug and a gentle reminder that it's perfectly okay to not be okay. In fact the crazy part of it all is it's perfectly normal to go through life with emotions, heck Jesus himself felt emotions. I'm sure we all remember when he got mad in the temple and flipped the table, well in that moment he wasn't okay. As a new mom still adjusting to this wonderful world of motherhood I find myself not okay pretty often. I'm either exhausted because the baby didn't sleep or because the baby nursed all day, or I'm feeling a little lost trying to rediscover my role as Brittany, or I'm just a little anxious becaus...
