July, oh sweet July

Hey everyone!

It IS July...already!? Over halfway through the year I CAN'T believe it! But I'm also very excited, all the same! Not too much longer and we'll be heading back to Georgia....leaving Hel Paso behind! It will be a sad day to leave friends, however not a sad day to leave Bliss!

We just got back from a LONG overdo vacation! We headed to Vegas...for a little bit of relaxation and fun! And the trip was just that! This was the first vacation that Blake and I have gone on together in our 2 1/2 years of marriage! It was very nice, comfortable, relaxing, fun, and romantic! I encourage EVERYONE to go to Vegas at some point in your life! It is definitely worth it!

Not too much more going on here in the midwest, but I will hopefully be updating a little more often than I currently am!

I hope that everyone is having a WONDERFUL July!!

A year ago!

I can't believe how long it's been since I've posted...Almost a Year! So many things have happened...Blake is finally back home from his long overdue return! We are very happy that he is back home and looking forward to so many things that we can do together! We only have a few more months left here in El Paso and then we'll be Georgia bound once again! This time we'll be heading to Ft. Gordon! Blake reenlisted while he was overseas and chose a new job, that's why our path is changing! But we'll be thrilled to be a little bit closer to our families! 1400 miles is just a little too far away! Our little Hoot turned another year older! He's 2 now and THANKFULLY growing out of his mischievous phase....SLOWLY! lol He pretty much sleeps all of the time now! But he's still as adorable and sweet as ever! He misses his Meme&Papa/QB/Haley/Connie(get her!) lol

Well I just wanted to post with that little bit for now!

I hope that everyone has a wonderful memorial day and please remember the reason that we celebrate it!

-Blakes Trip Home-

Hey Everyone!!

It's been a while since I've posted! Blake was home for a few weeks and I was spending some well-needed quality time with him! But never-the-less, I didn't forget about everyone else!

Blake being home was awesome! We had tons of fun together and spent a lot of time with family, friends, and our little animals! We had some fun at the aquarium, as well as some fun watching tv shows back to back on the computer(thanks blake)! Lol But more importantly we just got to spend time in each others arms! You never realize how much you miss someone until they're gone for so long, then they come home, and they're gone again with the snap of your fingers! It's sad...but he'll come home again-and next time for good! I can't wait!!

Other than this...not too much more going on! Classes started on Thursday and it's already insane! 4 hrs of class followed by atleast 10 pages of homework...in ONE day! Can't wait to see how the rest of the semester is gonna go! WOO HOO!!

Well I'll close with this: TOMORROW is Rupert's First Birthday! YAY! I love my dogs soooo much! I hope everyone has a great week!!

God Bless

Hey everyone!
Today has been one exciting day! We celebrated Hootie's first birthday and it was sooo much fun! I bought him a new shirt. I think it was just a little too big for him, but he wore it with so much pride! He also got to enjoy his first bowl of apple torte. Made especially for dogs! He was so adorable and so sweet. I can't believe he's already one year old (7 years old in dog years)! Time goes by way to fast!

Hi Everybody! This is my first post, but definitely NOT my last! Today is the 19th which means there's less than a month left before Blake is home for a little R&R! My heart is filled with sooo much joy! I cannot wait to see his handsome smile and his gorgeous blue eyes....I guess I could say that there are a lot of things that i cannot wait to see.

One week has gone by since Rupert's horrible visit to the emergency vet...but good news indeed! He's so much more chipper and feeling a lot better! Thank you God!


God Bless
