Quick Posts Thoughts and Prayers Apprectiated!

Ok so one thing after another this week.

First my dear friend old high school boyfriend (whom by the way I was such a good girl in school for the whole 4 on and off again years we dated we never did more than hug... thats right I never even kissed him... maybe thats how we have stayed such good friends...) anyways he was shot a few days ago overseas... I will not disclose locations... So he was scared to tell me yes I get it and all and I cried... silly maybe but he's alive but just prayers and thoughts requested because he broke his number 1 promise to me.... which was you ask... to come home without a scratch.... yes I knew it wasn't going to happen but geez... why get hurt so soon ya know... sorry for all the slang and dot dot dots but its been a long day and my mind is not working to be proper right now so if I offend you with my horrible grammar and bad blogging etiqutte well forgive me... other news please keep the families of the three lost Coast Guardsmen in your thoughts and prayers as well for those of you that don't know one of the Jayhawk helicopters crashed today only one survivor from the crash. This is sad news and my heart is breaking for their families. Also pray for our men and women overseas its just been a rough week so far and I hope and pray that it gets better! A more cheerful update planned for tomorrow because I've been horrible at doing great blogging so I'll have pictures and stories to tell I promise!

Thanks,
~C~

Top 2 Tuesday!!!


Top 2 Favorite Purchases I've Made This Year!

1.
I know this will sound silly but it had to be the putter I bought for J he is absolutely in love with it and I couldn't be happier for him! The only thing I think he didn't like was that it was wrapped in Victoria Secret pink tissue paper but it's all I had so a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do right?!?!?!?



2.
Now I'm going to sound like a kid but J and I got a Nintendo DS for the plane flights and long car rides well there is this game called SkipBo that my great-grandmother and I used to play together and playing it with other people just isn't the same but whenever i play it on the DS I feel like I can imagine I'm playing it with her. I know I'm sorta getting all sentimental and all but I was the only person that would ever play it with her so it means a lot to me!

So now I am off to work on more design ideas and sorting things and trying to pick out things I want to get rid of. It seems like a never ending process though if you ask me! So many clothes but so many I never wear anymore so what should I do? Off to make shopping lists as well and get ready to spend the next few days with my sister and mom! I'll blog more later because I have found some more cool things I want to try out in the blogging world!

Friday Fill-In Sorry It's Late!!!


Sorry ladies I know I am a day late but I was busy travelling yesterday came home to the family so that I could spend some vacation time with my mom and sister and next week I have a four day trip with my dad that I'm super excited about but details will come later! I hope everyone has an amazing 4th of July weekend spent safely with family and friends we are going to watch some fireworks and an amazing local band play so I will probably post some pictures tomorrow! Enjoy reading and I'm off to reading other Friday Fill-In posts!



1.
Tell us about your dream job… one that you could do regardless of pay.

I would have to say the one job I would do regardless of pay would be a 4-H camp counselor. I did do that for three years and it had been one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had plus it introduced me to the love of my life... Doesn't get much better than that now does it?

2.
What is your most prized material possession (kids and pets don’t count!)?

I'd have to say my most prized possession would be my engagement ring. We looked here and there before we got engaged but I never said what I wanted. Whenever he dropped to one knee on the beach at sunset, (well that was romantic enough as is) but the fact that he picked out the ring himself without me ever saying what I wanted and the fact that in my mind it is simply gorgeous I couldn't be happier!

3.
What has been your favorite duty station and why?

I would say San Juan Puerto Rico even though I didn't get to live there with him I did get to visit and let me just say that there was so much to do there more than where we are now! But I know I wouldn't have liked housing I would've had to buy a ton of rugs I just hate those school tile floors!

4.
What is your least favorite household chore?

That without a doubt would be dishes! I love my family, friends, and of course J a ton but touching dirty dishes freaks me out I don't know why it just always has!

5.
If you could give one piece of advice to a teenager today (not specifically a MilTeen), what would it be?

Stay strong life throws curve balls at you and when you are young it is hard to handle especially teens! I remember I was 13 about to turn 14 ready for high school, dating, and partying with friends! Well that got all messed up whenever my mom had my sister and everything halted! I rebelled I thought it was punishment I had to babysit all the time while my friends were out living it up but now I see it as a blessing I got to avoid some of the rough stuff from a young age and now I'm more thankful than ever!
