About Me

My photo
We are extremely blessed! J and I have been happily married for 4 years and continue to grow and learn more about each other everyday(you would think after knowing each other for over 15 years there wouldn't be anything else to learn)!! Josh is currently a submarine officer in the Navy. We just finished up our shore duty in Monterey, CA and SOAC(dept.head school) in Groton, CT and are now living in Virginia for a short while where Josh is the ENG on the Tennessee. We will be moving to Georgia with in the next year and couldn't be more excited! While Josh is busy on the submarine I am busy raising our two sweet little girls Adah and Michaela! We love being parents and watching our sweet baby girls grow, change, and learn each day! Can't forget about our first "children"...our crazy cats Izzy and Ollie! We have been blessed with the best friends and family in the world. We can't wait to see what God has in store for us in the coming years!

........

It has been about week since my last post. Josh and I had a great Valentine's Day. He got off work around noon so we had the rest of the day to hang out together. We went and saw the movie Music and Lyrics....it was a really good movie.....we enjoyed it...plus it was nice to go on a little date. That evening we went to dinner and this really cute seafood restraunt in downtown Mystic. It was decorated for valentine's and we got to sit in this really nice and romantic room with a fireplace....it was fun! We survived the snow/ice storm and now it has warmed up a bit....it is in the 40's for the next couple of days but we are suppose to be getting snow again real soon. Josh's mom came and visited this past weekend....which was fun. We didn't do a whole lot but we hung out...went shopping....and took her to see the Nautilus museum. Now it is only a matter of days before Josh leaves me for a LONG time. He is missing my birthday for the second year in a row so we are going to celebrate this weekend since it is our last together for awhile. I will however be having LOTS of visitors while he is gone. Deanna....a friend from Baylor is coming in on March 2 and we will be going to hang out with Ashley and Austin in Boston or they will come here. Then Ashley(sister) and Kelly Jordan(pretty much my sister) are going to be coming March 9-15!!! We will probably be going to NYC and checking that out since neither of them have been there! Who knows what else we will do! Then my little brother is planning on coming up with one of his freinds right after Ashley and Kelly leave. Best of all.......I get to come home to TEXAS soon! Being of April and I'm there! Although I am sad Josh is leaving....at least I have a lot to look forward to so hopefully it will go by fast! I do have two big job possibilities that I should find out about this week.....so hopefully one will come thourgh! Thats it for now!

Bored

Just thought I would write because I am bored. Josh has duty tonight so he won't be home.....the bad part is that the big storm is hitting us tonight and if the base gets closed he will have to stay there all day tomorrow and have duty since no one will be able to get on to swap out with him! Kinda frustrating....so hopefully the base won't get closed!

I started taking a spin class....I absolutely love it! It is really hard work but it is well worth it. I can tell that it is starting to work for me as far as toning/muscle building and weight loss. Josh won't do it with me...he just goes and does his usual work out while I do that. The best part of it is that the class is free! There are some perks of Josh being in the Navy!

Josh leaves again at the end of this month. Not too excited about that but once he gets back he will be here for awhile. Josh is really excited about this underway though because they get to bust through the ice in the north pole! Not only that they will be on tv doing it! Once we find out more details I will let you all know in case you are interested!

Well....I'm gonna go watch American Idol! Bye!

Happy Valentine's Day to US!

Josh and I decided that we would go ahead and just get a joint valentine's present for each other this year and it came on Saturday! We got each other a new bedroom suite! We are super excited about it. Here are a few pictures of our present.

Our sleigh Bed!
Our new dresser!
Our chest!
One of our night stands...we got two!

Providence, Rhode Island

Yesterday Josh and I went to Providence with Kyle and Rachel. Kyle took us to show us a park there that he does some climbing at. When we got there we noticed that there were people out on the pond/lake ICE SKATING! Of course Rachel and I got excited and wanted to go out on it. So we did! Here are a few pictures of us playing on the ice. After the ice adventure we went to the mall there and walked around.....Rachel and I decided to work out a little on the "horse" machine. Then we all went to dinner at Dave and Busters and played arcade games. Of course Josh and Kyle had to play some shooting games so I thought I would get an action shot of that! Hope you enjoy!
