Easter.

As Easter gets closer, I am starting to think about how I want to make this holiday festive. My favorite thing during holidays is to make them special for my husband. One day, when we decide to have a little one then I will make it special for them. This year, I am thinking chocolate covered peeps, Easter egg coloring, & maybe a little Easter egg hunting in our living room. 

When I was growing up my favorite things about Easter were coloring eggs and  egg hunting so why not now? Why not keep up the traditions that I used to love with my husband. :) Then maybe all those things will be his favorites too.

Hope you have a Happy Easter.

Let the Planning Begin!

So, as I already mentioned, I am going to be an aunt in late July. My brother & sister in law announced her name last week. Adelynn Marie Roberts. Named after my grandmother and myself with Marie Roberts. :) It is amazing how the little things always mean the most to people. I feel so blessed that my brother & sister decided to pick Marie Roberts. 

Anyways.. I have now started the fun planning of the baby showers. Planning is my passion. The first shower will be early June & themed tennis. My brother & sister are in a tennis league so my mother is throwing them a tennis themed shower with all the tennis girls. & of course she asked me to help her with all the little details. From the tennis ball cake to the little personalized initials of our little Addie. :) 

Then in late June, I am throwing them a family shower & themed with lavender, dark purple, and light green colors and purple flower designs. The family shower is going to have a southern feel to it to get everyone relax and just have a good time with conversation. After the showers I will post some pictures on how things turn out.

The Count Down Has Started

So the count down has started until we are separated. Until this whole Army thing starts and rips my husband out of my arms and takes him... shaves his head... & places us where ever they want for the next four years. Also, the count down has started for August 19th.... Vacation :) It is our two week long vacation that will be on the East Coast with all of the amazing seafood.. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. Yum. One of my past times is researching places. Places that fascinate me... Just like Maine. I am amazed by all the beauty that surrounds it. To me, that is the perfect place (amazing fresh seafood & gorgeous surroundings).

Update: Wisdom teeth were a pain... Still are! & they've been out for a whole week & I still have to take pain meds. Can Not wait to be done with this & never have to go through this again. Also, cant wait for my husband to get his out... So then I can call him chipmunk. Yes, for the past week my nickname around our house is chipmunk. Normally that would be cute... not so cute when you actually look like one. I was beginning to forget what my actual face looked like. Ha ha.
