Happy Mothers Day and new glasses

I just wanted to put it on my blog to remember forever these past few days.

My daughter and I both got our first eye exams and we both need glasses. Haylee's came in first and these are the ones she chose with the lady bugs

With Grandma here we always plant. I love my tulips and a "mater" plant. My glasses are something to get used to. But I will.. One day. Thank goodness I need them for seeing far away right now. 

I love having my mom here 

that is all <3

Cinco De Mayo!!

May 5 people!! That means my momma is getting her bahookie here! I've been trying to keep this a secret from the oldest for EVER. Its been hard I actually slipped up a few times. I hope that she truly doesn't know and isn't playing coy with me. Darn 8 years olds think they know everything. Everything has found its place. Most things have a home and I can say Im about 90% at home right now. After living here almost 1 year I think I did good :) Im so excited to show my mom around virginia without getting lost like last time. Boy that was rough. At least I know my way around around Virginia Beach (somewhat) thanks to my awesome friend Christina.

On the husband front we have successfully completed 1 month and it feels good to "think" that is one month down that we will NEVER have to do again. I am excited for that. I am truly. However I am still fighting with the thought of the months that are down this dirt road we decided to travel down. So many plans we have I can't wait to build our dreams together. Its going to be awesome. We just have to get through this last leg.

Side note- Does everyone get crazy husband pictures? I cant wait to see the infamous "stash" pictures I always get and I ALWAYS order too much and share them with family. Can't wait.

I love you babe <3

OOPS! PADA!

I forgot about photo a day april. YIKES! My bad.  Ive enclosed some photos though to try and make up for it. :) Ive been busy spending time with friends and getting ready for my mothers arrival. I can't wait. Cleaning/organizing. re-aranging ah. Its like homecoming. Ive gotten a few phone calls from my hubby and even was blessed to see his face via face time. I miss that man more than he knows. Were coming up on our anniversary and Im stumped as to what to get him.  :/
