Sweet Summertime

Whew! After an incredibly eventful month, Maj and I are finally settled into our respective places for a little while – although it will not be for long! After the draft, our life did not slow down one bit. Samajé left a few days after for his new “home” (hotel) in Ashburn, where the Redskins …

Washington Bound

The verdict is in: WE’RE GOING TO WASHINGTON! (D.C., that is.) This past weekend was one of the most exhausting weekends of my life, as I am sure it was for many others. That being said, it was also a weekend that neither of us will ever forget. In the days leading up to the …

How I Found My Joy

As I share my story with you all through this blog, I feel as though I must share how I got to this place in my life, for it is one of the most crucial parts of my story. I was not always this happy; I have seen my fair share of hardship. One day, …

Spring Has Sprung

We are well into the spring season, and, boy, has it been crazier than expected! We are back to “normal” life, but that is not saying much; it still has yet to slow down. My last blog left off right before the best part of spring. The day after OU’s Pro Day, we arrived in …

Showtime

The busiest time of the year so far has passed! After a long couple of months, we are finally getting back to normal life – at least for a little while. As many of you may know, two and a half weeks ago, Maj flew into Indianapolis for the NFL Scouting Combine. This event was …

Best Proposal Ever

What an incredible weekend! If you haven’t already seen the video or one of my multiple social media posts – I’M ENGAGED!!! I’m going to be honest with you all – and I don’t think he would mind me saying this, because it’s the truth – I was not expecting anything like this AT ALL, …

California Love

I’m back! This post is about two weeks overdue, but, well, life happens. This week, “life” entailed dealing with the flu. I have never had the flu before, and don’t get me wrong – it was miserable. Luckily, though, God’s got my back. I ended up getting sick last Thursday night, which, although it made …

Back to Reality

On Sunday, Moose and I made the trip from home (Pflugerville, TX) back to Norman to prepare for my final semester at OU. The trip didn’t start without a little drama, though. I made our handsome pup a nice, cozy spot in the back seat of my car. About ten minutes into the trip, a …

Declaration Day

I have been waiting for this day for a while now. I knew it was coming, but, of course, you never know something is going to happen for sure until it actually happens. Now it’s real: Maj has officially declared for the NFL Draft. (Ahh! I can’t believe I’m saying that!!!) Since this is a …
