Almost there!!!!

Ok well today I will try to write a post without so many typos ;). The last couple of blogs I typed really fast at like 2am so hopefully this will be a little bit better.

My friends left yesterday, which is really sad. I miss them already. I love my friends and their coolness for surprising me and coming to see me. I love my husband for arranging everything. He is so good to me ;). Anyways, on our last day together we just dilly dallied around. We had slept in late. We went and got some pictures developed at Wal-mart and just spent time together. We went to Olive Garden that night and had some amazing food. After dinner we got ice cream and then came home to talk and watch a movie. Of course we never got to the actual movie. We then made key chains out of bandanas, they turned out really cute. Then it was off to bed because they had to wake up early and leave the next morning, boo. I had such a great time with them I hated to see them go. Now time is passing so flippin slow. I am ready to be in Hawaii. Well that is all for now. Post again soon.


My Tatoo (it says Hosanna). I got it from the Hillsong song Hosanna and the butterfly is to remember my friend Brittany.

It was a little puffy so the swirls before the H look smooshed ;)


I also dyed my hair...it is a redish color:

Some new changes ;)

Well, I didn't blog yesterday so I will againg just have to do two blogs today!

Yesterday we woke up at about 10m (which I was up at 8 bc I can't sleep that late). We got ready and decided to go out for Mexican. After we ate we really didn't know what to do so we decided this would probably be the best time to look at tattoo places. Me and Amanda (Bean) were going to get tattoos and we wanted to make sure the place was good and clean ;). We finally decided that Baldy's (lol) was the place. We walked in and told them what we wanted and he asked when we were looking for it to be down. Of course we don't think you would actually need an apt. for a tattoo, I mean Kat Von D takes walk-ins right? Anyways he said we had to make an apt. and they were booked 3 days out. We were so sad bc they leave on Sunday and there would be no way for us to get them together. A guy in the back, Robbie, called up and said he could do them for us today...YEAH!!! Amanda and I were so nervous. I made her go first ;). It was so painful, but bearable. Amanda's mom was so funny. She messaged her and said now you and Morgan are "special" friends for life LOL that is too funny. After tattoos, we decided to go to Wally word and get some hair dye, which is a tradition with the Fab Four. We then came home and Nate made us stuff shells for dinner :). I have the most amazing husband in the world! We then decided it was time to dye the hair!!!! I decided just to go for it and dye my whole head and not just streaks this time. I love it! Anyways so we have had and amazing time so far and we have more day to go, which I know will be amazing. I thank God so much for all of my amazing friends all over. I am so blessed!


Bucket List Update:
Dye My Hair= CHECK!
Get A Tattoo= CHECK!

It's been a f'real mazin' day!

Oh my gracious! I have THE most amazing husband in the world. He organized for 3 of my girlfriends to come visit me for the next couple of days. For the last month or so he has been arranging for my friends to come up and visit me. I love my friends and husband SO flippen much.

Nate went to take a movie back to the Red Box and told me he would be back soon. Well, like an hour later he comes home and I was like what took so long? Next thing I know someone is coming through my door. I said, "hello?" and Blair, Porter, and Bean show there pretty faces to me :). I freaked out and jumped up in the air and ran to them. I made Porter pee herself, literally, but just a little bit. Next thing I know I twisted my ankle something fierce! It hurts SO bad and it's swollen. Anyways, I cannot believe they are here. Can we say greatest surprise EVER!!! I love these girls so much. Let the fun begin. I think we are going to get tattoes ;), I'm excited. Well, I better go off to have some super fun lol.

Oopsie...

Well, as you can tell this blogging everyday is not my thing, but I will prevail and master it yet.

I will just go ahead and post about what happened yesterday and later tonight do a post about today that way no one gets confused haha.

Yesterday the movers came and packed up the rest of our belongings and took them off to storage. We are literally living with what we will be taking to Hawaii and I could not be more excited. Nate and I think that we have decided just to go ahead and live on base if we can get a house there. It was getting to crazy to try to find housing with everything we needed for the right price off base so it looks like I will be living on base again. I don't mind living on base and if Nate gets deployed shortly after then I will probably be better that I am on base and not off by myself on a new island. They have some really nice houses on base so I am looking forward to hopefully finding a house in the neighborhod we like. We are asking for prayers for our dogs. If the temperature is not at least 85 degrees at any of the layovers or stops the puppies can't fly so that would be craziness. My Mom would take the dogs and then fly them out at a later date and then we would just pick them up then. We are praying that this is not what happens and the puppies can fly out with us ;).
We only have 6 days left at Fort Knox and only 10 days till Hawaii. I am getting very excited! I hope these next few days fly by. Well, I will post again tonight about the happenings of today ;) ttyl.

Shortie...

Well, I will do a quick update.

We stayed up late last night to watch movies. We only got to midnight and crashed ;). We watched a movie called Ghost Writer it was actually pretty good I would recommend it.

Today we just lounged around and got the house ready to be packed up for storage tomorrow. We then went on a double date with the Barlow's. We ate mexican and then went to see The Other Guys ( which i for seome reason had a brain fart yesterday and called in The Good Guys?). It was a funny movie and I would recommend it as well. Now we are just chillin and washing all of our clothes before our washer and dryer go off to storage tomorrow! Well, that is my post for now so I will write again tomorrow.

Addiction...

Ok well blogging everyday is some what monotonous. I will keep doing it however, or at least try, to make sure I am used to it when I get to Hawaii.

Anyways this blog will be short because I am about to have a random movie night with my husband. He went and rented 2 movies for us to watch and grab so snacks. I love him so much, he is so sweet to me ;). Well, today has been a pretty slow day I didn't accomplish very much. Nate had a couple of meetings today. One was about his OER which he got a great rating on so he should look really good for his next promotion next year...yeah! He works so hard so I am glad to see that others can see it. Tomorrow I might go swimming with my friend Andrea, it will def. help the day pass faster. Since tomorrow is the cheap movie day at the theater we are probably going to go see the Good Guys. Wednesday is the day when the last of our belongings go to storage so that means no more T.V., which I am ok with. Then that is about all we don't have anything planned until the next Wed. when we are off to TN. I think the next week or so will creep by I am hoping for a time speed up! I am so ready to be in HI.

I am so addicted to these decorating blogs they are TOO cute. I have so many ideas that I am dying to be able to work on. I never knew those types of blogs existed. I am so hooked now. I go on them at least twice a day to see what new projects people are doing. It is really amazing to see what people can do with "trash". I think I have also found a present that I want for my bday from my hubs. I will show a picture at the bottom, it would mean so much. At our wedding Nate and I decided we didn't want a solo or singing we wanted someone to read a poem so we choose e.e. cummings I Carry Your Heart in My Heart. I love that poem and it really applies to me as an Army wife and deployment so I would love to have this as a reminder rather than a yellow ribbon.

Here is the Necklace:

-I got this picture off the Lisa Leonard designs website. They have amazing pieces of jewelry there.

Well, that is it for now. I guess I wrote a little more than I wanted, but who cares. I am off to watch movies!

Good day!!!

I will just write a quick post today! Again I am just trying to get used to messaging each day.

Today was a fun day. We started off the day at church. It was a good service talking about how God protects us and rewards us. Then we went to lunch at Panera Bread. We had to swing by Wally World for a few things. We came home and relaxed for a little bit before we had Lasagna for dinner. Then we took the puppies to the Nature Preserve, Saunders Spring, for a hike which they loved. Afterwards when we got home we were ready to settle in when our friend who also happens to live across from us pulled in with her brand new truck that her and her hubs bought today so she wanted to go drive a little and get ice cream so we say Heck yeah why not. All in all it was a good day. I have been getting so tired lately with all this heat so no long message tonight. Nothing planned for tomorrow so we shall see! Write again soon!

Oh we might have found a house...please pray for us as we continue to search out housing.
