My Husband Takes Over for Valentine’s Day


Husband Blog Takeover for Valentine's Day

It’s a husband blog takeover for Valentine’s Day. Alright, one day early, but it’s the thought that counts, right you guys?

Hello, everyone. You don’t hear from me much, but I’m sure some of you know me at least. And for those of you that don’t know who I am, my name is Brandon, I am Stephanie‘s husband. I thought that for Valentine’s Day I would share with you all how our marriage has been going – through my eyes, at least.

So to recap a little bit, Stephanie and I are closing in on three months of marriage. A lot of people ask what married life is like. I usually have the same answer – but before we get to that, I’ll help you get a clearer picture of what our married life has been like.

Picture if you will a quiet, beautiful morning. The sound of chirping birds and light droplets off gutters tapping away as they hit a concrete sidewalk. Sunshine cascades through the windows of a quaint and humble townhome. A serene, sleeping husband is sprawled across a bed of tangled sheets, mouth agape, completely vulnerable to assassination at any given moment. He’s awoken by a light thud on the nightstand. To his surprise, a piping hot mug of coffee with hazelnut cream is set before him. Still in a daze he looks up to see his beautiful, already dressed and prepared for the day wife, smiling, and looking as radiant on a Sunday morning as she did the day they got married.

Husband Blog Takeover for Valentine's Day Husband Blog Takeover for Valentine's Day

People – I am actually scared of no longer feeling ambitious.

Being married to this incredible, selfless, treasure of a human-being makes me feel fully content, and I sometimes honestly feel no need for anything else in the world. I’ve been all up and down the east coast and even flown across the world, yet this small little visual of happiness feels more like home than I have ever felt before. Every time I walk in the door of our new home, I know I’ll be greeted with a hug and a kiss from the woman of my dreams. Every time I leave I count the minutes till I can come back. 

When people ask what married life is like, I usually say “amazing” (because face it, most people don’t want the explanation you just read) but if you want the real answer, it is truly indescribable.

I love you, Stephanie. Here’s to our first valentines day as a married couple, and here’s to the rest of our lives.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As much as I’m totally a wolf-girl, the Cullens will always be my first pick! 🧛🏻‍♀️ After reading Midnight Sun, I had an even greater appreciation for every member of that family (except Rosalie. Still hate Rosalie 😂)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A few months ago, I got a Twilight Woods candle from @janzywaxco and I realized I wasn’t burning it because it was my favorite scent and I wanted it to last forever 🙈 Then she began offering this amazing JUMBO SIZE and I instantly snatched it up so my house would smell like sexy vampires forever 🕯

What was the first box set of books you ever got? What was the first box set of books you ever got? 📦
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was so desperate to read The Hunger Games in high school that I posted on Facebook asking if I could borrow them from anyone who owned them (since the library had ridiculous holds and, at the time, I couldn’t afford to buy) 🙈 An extended family member offered to ship me her set to borrow and when the box arrived, I realized she bought me my own box set! 😱 It was an awesome gift (and I thoroughly enjoyed the books, of course)! 🎁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
These books are well-loved, so I was thrilled when I saw the gorgeous dust jackets @thebookishshop released for them 😍 Dust jackets are such a fun way to deck out some of my favorite books ✨ Use the code ESPRESSO5 to purchase your own set of dust jackets or even get a discounted subscription to @thebookishbox 🙌🏼

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I had an almost identical shot that I shared on my feed when I launched in January and I never knew it would go viral on Pinterest or that this page would be the best thing to happen to me all year 🙈
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Honestly, I could get super mushy right now, but I really wanna say THANK YOU to all of you for making 2020 a better place 😘 There’s been a lot of tragedy and stress this year, but this little corner of the internet has been such a bright spot! ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve wrapped up my TOP TEN BOOKS in a guide and posted my “one second a day” video to IGTV 😱 Who am I with all of this content in one day?! 🤷🏻‍♀️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Have a happy new year, everyone! 🤍
