FYI

So, you might have noticed that Richard and I skipped a few days there on the challenge. 

The thing is, to be 100% honest with you guys, things have been so cray over the past few weeks that we didn’t get to draw or write love letters to each other. We love that idea though! We will be doing it later in the year and we will snap pictures of us sending it to them. 

Also, we don’t play multiplayer games online. We’re going to figure out how to play multiplayer modes of Mario Kart on the 3DS (hopefully) soon. So, if that happens, I will snap a picture of that!

We’re just trying to catch up, and I hope you guys don’t mind. 

We’re just, in the words of the wonderful Tim Gunn, making it work. 🙂 

Your Love from Afar: Week 5

Monday- Do you both play any games together?

What games do you play? Who usually wins? Do you place any bets or rewards?

We do! Richard and I love playing games on the Wii and the 3DS. A few months before I left, I became obsessed with playing Mario 3D World and Mario 3D Land. I love playing Mario Kart 8 too. Basically, anything Mario, I will play it, and Richard will join in. Richard is way more of a gamer than I am though. He loves his new PS4, and he likes playing what I call his scary games on it. I definitely do not do scary well so that’s his time or time with his boys. Outside of game consoles, we love to play Scrabble, haha!

Hands down, Richard usually wins. He’s been a gamer all his life, and I love that about him. His hand-eye coordination is insane, and he’s so intuitive with all sorts of games. Although it means that I lose a good amount of the time, I can’t hate. I can’t! The way I see it, at the end of the day, if we get to spend time together, I’m happy. 🙂 (Cheesy, I know. Please still be my friend.)

We’ve never placed any serious bets and rewards to games… Thank God! I would be broke if we did, haha!

Your Love from Afar: Week 4

(Trying to do some major catch up here…)

Friday- What are your favorite things to talk about? Do you talk on a regular basis?

We talk everyday. 🙂 Our favorite things to talk about are how our days were and how we envision our future. Richard wakes up before me because of the five-hour time difference, and he usually texts me before he goes to work. His morning texts really start my day off on the right note! We always say good night to each other as well, even though it is totally not good night for me, haha. But from the moment we first talked to each other, we have always said good night to each other. It’s one of our golden rules. 🙂

100+ Followers… Whaaat?

YOU GUYS!!!!!!

I know Richard and I have been a little less active on this blog recently due to our crazy schedules, but the fact that we have new followers (read: friends) and all sorts of awesome activity going on on here really makes us so beyond thrilled!!!

Thank you for letting us share our story, our random thoughts, our favorite pictures and our little snapshots of our past and present. Thank you for taking us as we are. I promise our space on here is a place where we take you as you are as well, and it will always be. 

Even though we have never met, you guys have a seriously special place in our hearts. 

Lots of love, 

Richard and Cat

Your Love from Afar Challenge: Week 3

(We are so off this week. Sorry, guys!)
