Louisiana to Missouri. The 10 hour Road Trip I take atleast once or Twice a year...Going home to see my family & friends and back. The longest one was after Michael deployed with my dad. That trip took 12 hours. Whew. I thought I'd never get to Missouri. lol.

Do you collect anything? Tell us a bit about it.

I collect a few things. I collect Snow Globes. I've always just been Fascinated by them. I have about 10 of them ranging from Small to little. I havent collected any in a while so I'll have to start again :) I also collect Candles. I loveee Candles.

What is your favorite part about being an adult?

I would have to say My Favorite Part about being an Adult would be Being able to do what I want to do when I can do it.

What song brings a tear to your eye?

There's Quite a few of those actually..So I'll list my 2 Favorites.

-I'm Already There by Lonestar

-He's Coming Home By Cowboy Crush

Describe your first plane ride (how old you were, where you were heading, etc).

Well, I was in a helicopter last year but thats the only 'Plane' ride I've ever been on. The Helicopter ride was a ride at the Louisiana State Fair. They were giving helicopter rides around the city. I was 21.

Good Questions as always. Well, This weekend will be filled with packing, Since we move in to the new house Next Friday. Whew, Am I ever unbelievably stressed. Hopefully, We have some downtime of Something fun this weekend.  I don't have anything Else really, My Brains on overdrive. lol.  I hope everyone has a Fabulous Weekend.

30 Days of Me - Day 9

It's Thursday and that means tomorrows Friday! I love the weekend, except this weekend will mean lots of Packing, Yuck. I can't wait til we actually are settled in our new place but I know I'll end up packing and unpacking again. Story of my Life. I don't have much to write today. Not much is going on other than packing and puppy weaning.  So on with Day 9 of 30 Days of Me.

Day 9: A photo you took

Ummm..Ha, I take a Lot of pictures. I'm an aspiring Photographer, ya know. So this may be difficult to just post one picture I've taken. So I'll probably upload a few.

A Moon Picture I've Taken.

It's Friday!! You know what that means!! Its time for another MilSpouse Friday Fill-In. Want to Join in? Then head on over to Wife of a Sailor for details and to link up!!

This week’s questions are:

What is the silliest get-up you have ever worn outside of a Halloween party?

Hmmm...I can't think of anything outside of halloween costumes I've worn.

What is something that you gave up in order to live the military lifestyle?

It sure wasn't my life before then. Before I married Michael and moved here I was a Walmart Cashier that lived with her parents. I miss the kids I use to watch like crazy and My hometown in Missouri. I'd say the thing I gave up for the military lifestyle is either my sanity or my ability to plan things out. Sure I can plan different plans. You know, If this happens this will be the plan but if this happens we'll plan this. I use to love just planning my weeks to my liking. Now it has to be Plan A, Plan B, Plan C, Plan D and so forth for a day in a weekend.

If money wasn’t a factor and you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be? And why?

I've always wanted to go to Italy. Why? Because Its just always been a dream of mine to go there.

If you were going to join the military, what branch would you join? Or which MOS/rating would you choose?

Air Force, Of Course. Something to do with Public Affairs or Intelligence.

What is your favorite thing to make for dinner?

Hmm..I'm not sure. I love to cook. I guess my favorite thing to make would be one of my favorite recipes and Hubbys too. Butter & Garlic Chicken Noodles. MMM its so good!

Todays October 1st! Which means its time for Fall!! I love Fall!! But October 1st also means that today marks One month Since our baby became an angel. :(

This Weekend should be full of House Hunting and who knows what else. Hopefully we have some fun this weekend. Well thats it for today. I hope everyone has a Wonderful Weekend!

Friday Fill-In #10

It's Friday!! You know what that means. Its time for the MilSpouse Friday Fill-In.If you want to join on the fun. All you have to do is head over to Wife of a Sailor for all the details and to link up.

This Week's Friday Fill-In:

1.What secret indulgence do you act on while your spouse is away? (from Devil Dog Darling)

I don't really have a "Secret" indulgence while hubbys away. He knows all my Indulgences. I have many things I do when hubbys away. I cook and eat things he would find absolutely disgusting. I also stay up very late and sleep in late. I don't shave my legs. I do LOTS of shopping and I want A LOT of my favorite shows that he despises.

2.If you were a spice, what would you be? (from New Girl On Post)

I Would Definitely be Cinnamon, If I were a Spice. I just love Cinnamon and Sugar on my toast and Cinnamon in my Pancake Mix. Plus many Other things. 

3.Where do you go for support when your significant other is deployed? (from Texas Meets Washington)

When the Hubby's Deployed I go to my Dogtags and Diamonds and Uncle Sams Bride's. Both Military Significant Other Forums, If you havent heard of them. I also turn to other Miltary Wife Friends and My Wonderful Mother.

4.What is the oldest thing you own? (from A Troop's Girl)

Hmmmm...the oldest thing I own...I'm not sure about this one. Lol. It would either be my baby book or a Baby Blanket that was made for me, That I still have.

5.How did you vision your future pre-military? (from Daddy's Duty)

I always imagined being married with kids. but I never imagined marrying into the Military and living this life. I always wanted to travel the world and I guess this is a good way to do it. I still haven't seen the Ocean, yet though.

Thank God it's Friday it's been one heck of a week. Between going to the clinic, Confirming with the Military that I'm pregnant, to having puppies and missing sleep due to it. I'm super ready for the weekend. I have a lot more puppy pictures to share with you all. Which I will probably post sometime this weekend so be looking for them! Until then, Have a Fabulous Day and a Great Weekend!!

MilSpouse Friday Fill-in

This is my first fill-in, of course since I'm new to the blog world and all. If you want to participate go over to Wife of a Sailor.

1.What is ONE thing you’d like civilians to understand about being a military family?
One thing that drives me insane that I hear all the time from civilians is that we get free housing and that they're paying for us to live for free. This is not true. We don't get free housing. We pay for our housing and bills out of a paycheck, just like civilians.



2.What is your favorite mistake?
That would probably be sneaking out to hang out with my bestie when we were smaller. I always got grounded for months at a time but it was so worth it because those were the best times I had with her and they were precious because she passed away 2 weeks short of her 16th birthday..


3.What indulgence could you give up for a year?
Soda. I drink it way to much. I would be a much healthier person.


4.If you could be a winged animal, what would you be?
I guess just saying "A Bird" wouldn't be to good. I honestly don't know my birds that well though. I think I'll go with a Blue Bird. Because they're pretty and My home state bird(Missouri).


5.What is one question you’d like to see asked in a future MFF?
What's your best advice for newbies to the military?
If you could have any Super Power, what would it be?
 

Awesome Questions. So this weekend should be fun. I've got plans with a fellow military wife. She's married to an Airman but she herself is also an airman?!? We became friends while our hubbys were deployed together this last deployment. Since I did the fill-in and its about me, I wont write anything about me or hubby today. Have a great Weekend! :)
