Hello everyone!! I promise that I am still alive! The husband is leaving for San Fran again tomorrow, so I’m planning on getting back to my blogging come Monday. There is a lot to update you guys on and I greatly appreciate your patience in my absence.  🙂 Especially to all of my new followers. […]

We have had so much fun the past few days. We picked Hubby up at the airport bright and early at 9:00 am Tuesday morning. Little Man went right to his daddy. No hesitation, no second guessing…nothing. The only thing we noticed was the sheer amazement and wonder at seeing his Daddy again. He looked […]

We have finally, FINALLY gotten some news back from the Coast Guard [about time, right?] While it’s not exactly the news I was hoping for, it is the news that I was expecting. And who knows? Things could still possibly, maybe, change. Not likely, but God can do anything, right? While Little Man and I […]

 On this Memorial Day, I am more aware than ever of the sacrifices being made by our men and women in uniform and their families. The ones who gave up their lives to defend the country we call home and protect our freedoms weigh heavy on my heart today. Never have I been prouder to […]

I’m so tired. I feel like I am going to crumble under the pressure of staying composed and ‘okay.’ I feel like I don’t really have anyone to talk to about how hard all of this is. I admit it, I suck at the separation thing. I give HUGE props to all of you military […]

I guess sometimes what I need more than anything in the world is to be knocked down off of my high horse and brought back to my knees. I have this issue with control. I don’t really consider myself a control freak or anything like that. I’m not insanely bossy, nor do I feel like […]

I’m not exactly sure what to write this morning. My head hurts and I have bags under my eyes the size of baseballs. My nerves are still recovering from the hellacious weekend I experienced. I haven’t really been able to keep a whole lot of food down. If I eat to much, I get queasy. […]

I played along with this last week [I think it was last week…my days are all running together at this point] and wanted to join in again this week. It’s hosted by MannLand5. You just copy and paste her fun questions and fill in your answers.  Simple, right? 1. What color do you wear the […]

If you thought you weren’t going to get to catch a glimpse of what we spent our Easter weekend doing, then you were wrong.  🙂 It took me a day or two to get all of the pictures edited, but I finally finished last night at about 10:30. We had a chaotic and exhausting weekend […]

Good {late} morning, friends! This will be last post written at our home in Florida. As I’ve said before this is such a bittersweet emotion I’m feeling. Florida will always hold a place in my heart just because it was our first ‘home’ together, and this is where our son was born. But there was […]
