Spring. I love this season. But there's one thing spring is missing. Presents. The great thing about winter is I get lots of gifts. Do I sound selfish? Maybe. But tell me you don't like getting gifts ... yeah, that's what I thought. Everyone loves presents! Winter brings Christmas and my birthday ... and Valentine's Day! Presents galore! But spring ... nothing. And that's OK. But I want to share what my spring wish list would be if gift giving was normal in the spring. Like "Happy Memorial Day, here's your present!" :) 1. Sperrys! I've had my eye on these shoes for months ... Continue Reading

Things To Do When Hubby Is Away
As a military family, there are going to be many weeks or months or years where my husband is away. This week my husband has been in the field for training. Next month, he'll be gone a little longer. The month after that he'll be gone longer still. And a few months from now, he'll be gone for a whole month. I just keep telling myself that's nothing -- this isn't a deployment. But since we haven't been through a deployment yet, this kind of sucks. No matter how long your husband will be gone, it's totally OK to wear one of his shirts, eat cereal for supper, and wallow a little in your Continue Reading
March Visitors #2
Travis and I must have had the luck of the Irish this month because we had two weeks of visitors. Last week I shared a recap of our time with Travis' sister and nephew at Sea World and Downtown Disney. Today, I'm sharing about our time with my brother and his girlfriend -- Logan and Kendall. Luckily, Travis had Monday off so once our visitors arrived, Travis got to spend two-and-a-half days with them. We played board games, played laser tag, won some candy playing arcade games, visited the mall, went bowling, took a tour of Fort Stewart and enjoyed lots of laughs. While Travis Continue Reading
March Visitors
Just in time for Travis' birthday, his sister and nephew -- Casey and Carter -- came to visit! They were able to find cheap flights to Orlando, so we headed south to meet them. Since we were already in Orlando, we all went to Sea World! It was so nice watching Travis get to spend quality time with Carter. They had lots of time to bond, and it was precious. Travis wasn't the only one who got bonding time with the little cutie! Carter liked sitting on my lap and all the fun places we went while Travis was at work. And it wasn't all about Carter. We also loved spending time Continue Reading

My First 5K: Color Run
I did it! I have been working and working to get myself where I could run three miles without stopping ... or dying. I finally ran three miles straight last month. It felt so good to make my goal! But I only had that goal in order to get to my real goal of being able to run a 5K (without any walking). On March 1, Travis and I were in Columbia, South Carolina, to do the Color Run. I really wanted my first 5K to be fun, and the Color Run looked so fun! We woke up really early because I thought we had to be there way earlier than we actually did. Oops! I couldn't sleep the night before anyway Continue Reading

Ways to Pray as a Couple
One of the most intimate things you can do together as a couple is to pray to your Creator. One thing you can be sure of when you and your spouse come together in prayer is that God is present. For where two or three gather in my name, there I am with them. - Matthew 18:20 Prayer is a time to be open, to tell God all the things that are on your heart -- good and bad. It is a time for thanks and a time for requests. Listening to your spouse pray is a great way to know what is on their heart, what is worrying them, and what they desire. As a Christian woman, there is nothing more attractive Continue Reading
