I have a minute so heres an update.

Hello everyone!

I decided I would update you all while I am waiting on the hubby to get ready. Our trip home has been wonderful. Its great to be back. We have enjoyed family more than ever this trip. It never seems long enough. But we are ready to be back to our home. I think this trip has really proved the saying "our home is where the army sends us." As much as we love being back in our hometowns and spending time with the people we love, it's still not "our" home. Needless to say its always bitter-sweet. We want to stay longer to spend more time with family but at the same time we are missing our army family too.

Anyways we have just been enjoying as much time as we can with our family. It has been a great trip! The hubby and I got our pictures done since we haven't had any taken since we were married. I wanted some updated pictures. They turned out AMAZING!!!! Our photographer rocked! Check here out on Facebook Envisage Studios-FB or her personal site Envisage Studios. She is so amazing I love her! She did my senior pictures, my sisters, and soon my brothers. I wish she could of done our wedding too but that didn't happen. And now she has done these for us!


See I told you she was amazing!!!

Well this will end my quick update for you all. I hope you all have a Great day =)

Busy Weekend

What a weekend! We have been so busy. I am not sure if I enjoyed it or not. Ok that's a lie I did enjoy spending time with family and friends.


Friday the hubby had this thing they call "right of arms." I have never heard of this until here. Anyways its a night where the NCO's all go out and I guess "bond." Wives are usually not allowed at these events. At least for the first 2 hours anyways. I don't know if I agree with this but at the same time it doesn't bug me that much. So while he was "bonding" I was spending time with my bestie Leslie and her son Tyler! I love spending time with them! We just consider them family =) I think I had better time but that's just my opinion ;)




 Saturday the hubby went golfing with one of his friends early in the morning. I was suppose to go to a birthday party, but got so caught up in trying to get as much done before the hubby, the Dillon's, and I headed to Denver. We went to Denver for stock car racing and then we ate at Toby's Keith I Love This Bar. I was so disappointed in this place =/ I am not even going to get into everything that I was disappointed in.




Today (Sunday) was an early morning for us. We got up and got ready so we could head up to Greeley to our friend's house. Their son turned 10 today. We were more than happy to make the 2 hour trip to help celebrate! The Hackett's were the first couple we ever met in the Army. They are also like family. Even though Dereck is now out of the Army. We still stay in touch and we love them to death. We had to leave earlier than we wanted to because Colorado's weather is just a bit crazy. Saturday it was in the 80's and today it started snowing and was 32. What the heck!!!

After we got back we headed to the commissary to get the hubby food for the field. He is getting ready to go out Monday for 6 days. The commissary was a joke they didn't have anything in stock ok well anything I needed. So we had to make a trip to great ol wally world. Finally after that we came home started some laundry and sat down and relaxed. Now he is packing his bag and I am finishing up this post. I hope you all had a great weekend!

it was a very nice thursday!

So to start off the day let's just say I failed. I didn't workout today. Yep big time fail for me today but ill get back to it tomorrow hopefully. Ok no hopefully bout it I will do it!
Anyways today I met my husband on his lunch break to look at a house. Overall its a cute home however, I have never seen people live in the way they did. This house I know was no where the worse house but there were stains covering every last inch of the carpert in the living room. In fact the only nice carpert was in the basement you can tell they must of never went down there. The walls well the whole house needs a new paint job. So if they fix everything that needs to be done it could be on the list but until I hear from the relator that they will its now a no go. Plus I have never met a relator who didn't waive the appliction fee for military they said "we treat everyone the same." Ok fine just the first time I ran into that.
After taking the hubby back to work I went to my friends house (Leslie) in which her husband (Justin) is currently deployed and they have son name Tyler yep pretty much consider him my nephew! I love him oooo sooo much and of course I love his parents! They were also stationed at Ft Leonard Wood with us! They are one of our best friends out here and the closet thing to family we have out here well in fact they just mine as well be!
Well I got to spend the day with Les and the wonderful Tyler! I helped her get her car into the shop to get the oil change. So as we waited on that we went to mall and grab lunch and just did some window shopping since we were both good and didn't buy anything! Whooo hooo go us! So after we got her car I headed home.
They hubby got promoted today to corporal in which I think is dumb rank because he gains authority but not the pay no thank you lol no but I am proud of him and can't wait till he makes point to catch his SGT! So he wanted to come to Texas Road House! So here we are waiting to eat and I had to write this blog to keep me busy otherwise I become way way too impatient. In fact I was impatient after 5 mins of waiting. So I am glad I had something to keep me busy since we have now been waiting for bout 30mins now so anyday now would be great! =)
I hope you all have a great one =)
