vanessamorgan: Happy birthday, pretty girl. You’ve changed my entire world over the last seven months of knowing you, and you completely saved me in the last six months of being with you. There’s no one I trust more with my heart, and more importantly my son, than you. I’ve planned an entire week to celebrate you, decorating the hotel room was just the start. You are the strongest, most passionate, and incredibly honest person I’ve ever known, and I can’t believe I’m lucky enough to call you mine. It’s the first birthday of yours that we’re spending together, and I can’t wait to spend all the rest of them with you. Have the best day, Kelsea Nicole. I love you with my entire heart. @kelsbcllerini

Nessa: I know, us feeling similarly about it is one of the reasons we bonded so quickly from the moment we met. But our situations are still very, very different so it's just been a struggle to get fully over everything. I've made more progress than I ever thought I would, and Kelsea is the most patient, understanding, and perfect person on the planet. I just wish I could get fully there so that I can give her everything she deserves and not feel like I'm the reason everything has to always get pushed off to "later" or "eventually" or whatever. And I know I've come so far, it just frustrates me that I feel like I still have so far to go all because of Michael.

Nessa: You always do something, let's be real here. That's so true, I can't wait to get new pictures of them together this weekend.

Joey: There's also no timetable as to when you have to "get over" everything. Just keep going at your own pace and soon enough, everything that ever happened will be fully left behind and forgotten about. If she has been patient with you this whole time, then I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Joey: No, the hell I don't. I don't think you're prepared to see how big Brielle has gotten since you last saw her.

[vcnessamorgcn]

Nessa: I know there's not, and I know Kelsea would wait literally forever for anything if it's what I needed. It's just my own frustrations of not being able to give it to her and getting mad at myself for it. Nessa: Yes, the hell you do. You do things ALLLLL the time. Ugh, I can't wait to see her. It's only been a few weeks and yet it feels like it's been months.

I'll definitely make it to one of the Vegas ones, I pinky promise you on that. I'm not really sure, Kels and Cari were facetiming this week and she said they were securing the venue next week and trying for whenever their anniversary is as the date which is sometime in November. Pretty sure Cari is also touring leading up to the wedding, so you won't be alone there.

Canada's great isnt it? Did you like Texas though? I lived in Austin for work and well the majority of my adulthood spent there I ended up loving it. But like you I missed Canada a little so Montana was the only compromise. Though Nashville is not bad

[vcnessamorgcn]

It is, I love it so much. I grew up in Ottawa, spent a lot of time in Toronto, and then lived in Vancouver the last seven years. Texas wasn't really for me, it was too hot and just not where I personally enjoyed being. I spent a lot of time in Montana for my hiatus a couple years ago! I loved it there, it's one of those places I thought about moving to.

Maybe to you it isn't, but to me, it is. They were good times, yes, but I'd rather not think about the fact that a threesome was pretty much the catalyst for setting the two of you up.

[vcnessamorgcn]

Why? Genuinely curious, because I'm just not understanding it. And if it bothers you, it's something I don't want to bring up to you anymore.

[vcnessamorgcn]

It really was! Even if River demanded to sleep in there too and then managed to take up all the space as usual. He's so tiny and yet there's always a foot or hand waiting to get you in the back or face. Eh, she'll live. I'm making it up to her for her birthday this week.

The plan will make everything so much better, and thank god for technology. We just have to utilize it more often. They're the most adorable on facetime, their little babbles that make no sense to anyone and then having to chase them to get the phone back. They don't deserve any apologies, just let us judge in peace.

Nessa: I don't think so, I think you just love me enough to let me get away with it.

Nessa: Not even a little bit.

kels: nope

kels: i'd be disappointed if you WERE surprised, honestly

[vcnessamorgcn]

Nessa: Yes, and we both know it's actually true. Don't you go arguing with me. Nessa: Never in a million years, babe. Also, after the VMA's, we're taking a little getaway for the rest of the week for your birthday. My sister is coming into town to watch River and Dibs for us for the week :) :) :)

kels: vee, you're ALWAYS fair to me. in every single way. i could not mean that anymore than i do right now

kels: of course. are you surprised???

Nessa: I don't think so, I think you just love me enough to let me get away with it.

Nessa: Not even a little bit.

kels: this is something that i don't mind waiting for if i have to, vee. you communicated how you felt and that's all that ever matters to me. is the communication.

kels: because cari and i were talking about it and they WERE trying to figure out where to move anyways. so instead of jersey, why not here :)))

Nessa: I'm doing my best to always do that and not hold it all in which is what I did for so long. I just want to be more fair to you, you deserve that.

Nessa: You two are always plotting something, aren't you?

kitsch-man​:

You and I have the same taste. Also born in Canada lived in texas for a decade and decided I missed snow too much so moved to here.

I’ve mostly lived in Canada my whole life, with some small stints in LA and then I spent a lot of time in Texas with my ex because it’s where he was from. But now I’ve moved to Nashville because I know Kelsea loves it here and I didn’t want her to have to leave it. Maybe one day we’ll get a place in Canada too.

kels: i love you and how you're feeling is important to me, baby. this stuff takes time and i know that

kels: cari actually lived here before :'))

Nessa: But how you're feeling and what you want is important too, it's not just about me. There's two of us in this relationship, and I feel like it's always you having to put what you want on the back burner because of me.

Nessa: But why would they move here NOW?

[vcnessamorgcn]

kels: i told you i will go at this at your own pace, vee. if you need more time then i'm willing to wait for you ( and rivs ). for now i can be fun "sea" until you're ready

kels: . . . why not??

Nessa: You shouldn't always have to wait for me for every little thing that you want though, it's not fair to you.

Nessa: Not for any bad reason, it just seems random! I didn't peg them for country girls at all.

Joey: Well, of course it's terrifying. I didn't think I'd ever get married after Olivia and I broke up, but here we are now. I've never been more terrified to take the next step, but I feel secure in it at the same time. I don't even know if that makes sense, but oh well. And if that ends up happening, then you know I'll be up there right beside you on your wedding day.

Joey: What did I do. 🧍🏼‍♂️ River's and Brielle's opinions are the only ones that matter to me, thank you very much.

Nessa: I know, us feeling similarly about it is one of the reasons we bonded so quickly from the moment we met. But our situations are still very, very different so it's just been a struggle to get fully over everything.

It’s cute you think I’m Mads with her editing skills. I don’t have enough energy to do all of that.

You have Mads do it, duh. It’s all a plot against me, I see you all.
