A Wonderful Christmas

I meant to post this before the new year started...but enjoy anyway.
We spent the Christmas holiday in Maryland and spent time with T.J.'s family. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed making more wonderful memories with everyone.
Of course the year wouldn't be complete without T.J. getting me some sort of gift that pertains to cleaning. Even when we were dating, out first Christmas he bought me a dirt devil (note: I also received a Coach hand bag). Some people may take it as rude or insincere but I can honestly say that I LOVE it! He knows that cleaning is something I love (truly)...or maybe it's not the cleaning as much as the clean result. Regardless, I've enjoyed my dirt devil, my steam grout cleaner and I'm sure I'll enjoy my new clothing steam cleaner!

Birthday Surprises

My husband is so thoughtful! He has planned fabulous trips for each of my birthdays since we’ve been married (nearly two years). Last year we began with New York City, hitting Broadway to see Wicked, visit the Statue of Liberty and tour the town. This year we kept it country as we road tripped to Nashville, enjoying cabin life in the hills of Tennessee and kayaking at Rock Island. I have so many wonderful memories. I look forward to many more (memories and birthdays)!
P.S. Did I mention that he bought me a PINK kayak!? It came with my friend Kassidy in it!

My Husband

This Summer has been so wonderful to T.J. and me. I'm especially proud of him for passing his test to become a Tech Sergeant in the Air Force. He has worked so hard (and continues to do so) to continue in his career and be successful. I truly feel blessed to have him in my life. He has brought so much joy to me and I'm thankful for his family who have shaped him and shared him. ;) He has such a great influence on me for the good and makes me smile when I think of him. He is a loyal friend and he draws people towards him with his love and open arms. Children flock to him (especially our nieces and nephews) and that's a good sign of someone whose character is true. I love him.
