Those Little Things


Wow, I have been horrible at keeping up with blogging. I keep telling myself that I will find time to do it yet never manage to just sit down and do it. But lately I have had a lot on my mind. Guess it is time to get it all out.
                Too often many of us take for granted the little things in life. One of the ‘biggest/little things’ is the love of someone. For the last week, and then some, I have been ill, going from one treatment to the next, still waiting to find out what could be wrong. Now being sick is tiring all on its own. But trying to do simple things such as eating, walking up the stairs or just standing up because you ache, just adds to it. Then becoming discouraged and tired of feeling ill does not help. However… I have been fortunate enough to have someone who cared for me enough to buy food that I could eat, help me get up and about, and just tell me that everything will be okay.
                I always thought that I would be able to always be there for him and he has in return done the same for me. Everyone jokes about ‘finding your knight in shining armor’. I didn’t find my knight. I was able to find my best friend, my other half. To me that is so much better than a knight.
                I will always cherish all those little things that he does to show me he is there and that he cares. It may not seem like much to others but to me, it is the world.

How time flies....

Oh how the time has flown by. It has been a while since I last wrote anything.

The last was while I was still in Utah. With Rudy being gone I wanted to be able to spend the holidays with my family. I honestly don't remember the last time that I had been able to do that. Working where I did I was not able to have the holidays off for travel so I always spent it at home. Well kind of. Lol.

I loved that I was able to spend Christmas at my sisters and with family. I loved watching Macady enjoying her first Christmas. She was such a doll. Mom and Dad both came up. Curts parents, Chuck and Delores came as well and brought Kalea. And Coty came over. Only one thing would have made my Christmas holiday even better. And that would have been to have Rudy here as well. At least I know there is always next year.

I spent about a month in Utah and enjoyed every minute. I took Kerissa, Maddison, and Morgan out to take pictures. It was so fun yet so very cold. Also spent a few days out and about with Liz taking pictures. I am learning my camera but also know there is still so much more to learn. And I can't wait.

I love my time with my family, but I am ready to start my life with my 'new' family. I can't wait to have Rudy home so that we can actually get our lives going. It shouldn't b to much longer before he finally makes it here. And I can't wait. =]

Hopefully I don't take to long to post again. But you never know. And maybe next time... I will have my scrapbook from Utah finished to post...

A New Year

I wrote this the on the first of January but was having issues posting it so now I am. =) So here it is...
I planned on keeping up with my blog. So here are a few New Year Resolutions.
1~To say I love you every chance I get to the one I love
2~To do all the things that Rudy and I have talked about doing when he gets home
3~To always look at the good in everything that comes my way
4~To get in shape (through exercise and eating healthy)

5~To post on our blog at least once a month. (more if possible)
I could come up with so much more but I think that is a great start. I can always add more as I chose.
This last year has brought so much into my life. I have never felt so blessed in my life. God has brought an amazing man into my life. I feel so fortunate to be able to share my life with him and so thankful for him wanting to share his with me. When 2011 came I had plans in life at included me disappearing and moving far away.
Never did I imagine…
2011 brought a few changes in my life. I moved a few times… Back to Southern Utah and then to New York. Welcomed a new little one to the family. I made a few new friends, and lost a few. And got married. I was lucky enough to find the one friend who was always there for me but I never realized it at first. And then, things just took off. I had a best friend that I never expected. Who soon became the love of my life. I was too afraid to admit how much I really loved him at first but he just seemed to know. I never thought I would find a love like this. And I have no plans on ever letting go.

So much to share and I have no idea where to start. I think I have a great idea but it may take a few days to get it all. So watch and I will share…
So plan on lots of things to come. I can't wait for the next year. I am anxious to have my husband home and to start a new adventure. <3

So... Where do I start... It has been some time since I last blogged and now I am starting a new one with a new life and couldn't be happier.

With Rudy overseas I have been doing my best to stay busy, stay healthy, and stay happy. So far, I don't think I have done to bad. Lots of reading, scrapbooking (digital and paper), writing, taking pictures and just being. =)

Scrapbooking has been a big help. Right now I have a few digital projects in the work. I am making a digital scrapbook with all of the pictures taken while Rudy was home on R&R in August. So far I have 25 pages and I am only on day 6. Lol. And that isn't counting the wedding ones. But I have still enjoyed it. When I have it all done I will post it. Also, with Thanksgiving this month, it has become a tradition starting at the first of the month leading up to Thanksgiving to find something to be thankful for everyday. I have decided to do it a little different this year. I have opted to do an album instead. So I have been doing a digital page everyday. At the end of the month I plan on making a book of it. I am so excited.

As for everything else... Life is good. I never saw myself as a military wife and must say... I wouldn't change it for anything. Simply for the fact that I have an amazing husband who loves me. I feel so very fortunate to have him in my life. I never thought that love like this existed. But I am not complaining. Deployment and everything... I would do it all over again just to know that he is mine. I finally have my other half and I don't plan on letting him go. Only one thing could make life better right now and that would be to have him home with me. Now that would be my fairytale. ;)
