In all the world, you'll never find a love as true as mine.

Matt & I have officially been together 8 months! Two-thirds of a year! Only 4 more months until a year! It feels absolutely right!!
Now, to satisfy my lovey-dovey, mushy-gushy feelings, here are some excerpts from a few of my favorite lovey-dovey, mushy-gushy songs!

It's like like jumping. It's like leaping. It's like walking on the ceiling. It's like floating. It's like flying through the air. It's like soaring. It's like gliding. It's a rocket ship you're riding. It's a feeling that can take you anywhere. So why they calling it falling, I don't know. (Why They Call it Falling by Lee Ann Womack)

I don't wanna miss one smile. I don't wanna miss one kiss. I just be with you, right here with you, just like this. I just wanna hold you close, feel your heart so close to mine and just stay here in this moment for all the rest of time. ( I Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith)

If every word I said could make you laugh, I'd talk forever. I asked the sky just what we had, Hmm It shone forever. If the song I sing to you would fill your heart with joy, I'd sing forever. I've been so happy loving you. Let the love I have for you live in your heart and beat forever. (Forever by The Beach Boys)

I don't get many things right the first time, in fact, I am told that a lot. Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls, brought me here. Where was I before the day I first saw your lovely face? Now I see it every day. Now I know that I am the luckiest. (The Luckiest by Ben Folds)

Lost in this moment with you, I am completely consumed. My feelings so absolute, there's no doubt. Sealing our love with a kiss, waited my whole life for this, watching all my dreams come true, lost in this moment with you. (Lost in This Moment by Big & Rich)

Like a river flows surely to the sea, darling, so it goes, somethings are meant to be. Take my hand. Take my whole life, too. For I can't help falling in love with you. (Can't Help Falling in Love by Elvis Presley)

You will always be the miracle that makes my life complete. And as long as there's a breath in me, I'll make yours just as sweet. As we look into the future, It's as far as we can see. So let's make each tomorrow be the best that it can be.
I cross my heart and promise to give all I've got to give to make all your dreams come true. In all the world you'll never find a love as true as mine. (I Cross My Heart by George Strait)

Looking in your eyes, seeing all I need. Everything in you is everything to me. These are the moments I know heaven must exist. These are the moments I know all I need is this. I've found all I've waited for and I could not ask for more. (I Could Not Ask For More by Sara Evans)

You're the reason I believe in love and you're the answer to my prayers from up above. All we need is just the two of us. My dreams came true because of you.
From this moment, as long as I live, I will love you, I promise you this. There is nothing I wouldn't give, from this moment on. (From This Moment On by Shania Twain)

It's easy get through when somebody loves you the way I love you

When your heart is all alone every second
Seems so long
When it's just you, you can't see through
Those ol' clouds that rain so blue

But when somebody loves you
There's nothing you can't do
When somebody loves you
It's easy to get through
When somebody loves you
The way I love you

When it's late, the sun hangs low
By yourself, nowhere to go
Sing a song, you dance alone
Play solitaire and stare at the phone

But when somebody loves you
There's nothing you can't do
When somebody loves you
It's easy to get through
When somebody loves you
The way I love you

So let's put aside our foolish pride
And let our hearts say hello
We both agree we're just no good
At bein' on our own

'Cause when somebody loves you
There's nothing you can't do
When somebody loves you
It's easy to get through
When somebody loves you
The way I love you

The way I love you
The way I love you
(When Somebody Loves You by Alan Jackson)

P.S. That is a picture of Leiden!

When I get where I'm going....I'm gonna walk with my grand-daddy. He'll match me step-for-step.

I really wish I could have really "met" my Grandpa Haugaard. He died when I was only a year and a half old. But he was SO interesting! I wish I could talk to him today and ask him what it was like growing up in Denmark. And ask him about being in the Danish underground resistance movement against the Germans in WWII. What it was like moving to the United States. I would just be bursting with questions!
My mom told me some stories. One of them is about how if he didn't leave Denmark after the war he would have been killed by the Germans. And that Frederiksen St. in Fremont is named after the people that were pretty much his family when he came to Fremont. But I wish I knew more.
I guess this will just have to at the top of my list of things to do when I get to heaven!



"When I get where I'm going, there'll be only happy tears. I will shed the sins and struggles, I have carried all these years. And I'll leave my heart wide open, I will love and have no fear. Yeah when I get where I'm going, Don't cry for me down here.

I'm gonna walk with my grandaddy, and he'll match me step for step, and I'll tell him how I missed him, every minute since he left. Then I'll hug his neck."

(From When I Get Where I'm Going by Brad Paisley feat. Dolly Parton)
