I Want Crazy

Mr. Bumblebee is gone :( I miss him so much but I am thankful we can talk everyday and I am looking forward to our adventures ahead. I have recently been loving this song and wanted to share it. Love the version with Danielle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U552uAsIa9o

"I Want Crazy"

But I don't want "good" and I don't want "good enough" I want "can't sleep, can't breathe without you" love Front porch and one more kiss, it doesn't make sense to anybody else Who cares if you're all I think about, I've searched the world and I know now, It ain't right if you ain't lost your mind Yeah, I don't want easy, I want crazy Are you with me baby? Let's be crazy

I wanna be scared, don't wanna know why Wanna feel good, don't have to be right The world makes all kinds of rules for love I say you gotta let it do what it does

I don't want just another hug and a kiss goodnight Catchin' up calls and a date sometimes I love that we're rebels, and we still believe We're the kind of crazy people wish that they could be, yeah

Oh, I know we're crazy, yeah

Moving Tips & Things I Learned

Well the time is here! Mr. Bumblebee leaves shortly for Korea. We had to move all our stuff into storage because I am moving back home to live with my parents while he is gone (mostly because my job is ending due to the company closing our location). So I will be sleeping on an air mattress for about a month but it was wonderful to have him around to help and drive the big moving truck. Also if you haven't heard next year we are moving to....GERMANY! We are super exciting about traveling and getting to visit many different countries! Now we just need to get through the next year apart unfortunately.

Here are my moving tips:
1. Buy supplies ahead of time (tape, boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, etc.) I got boxes from others moving on base. I was able to get two huge roles of packing paper from the local newspaper office and I bought bubble wrap for a great price on Amazon.
2. Buy plastic bins when they go on sale after holidays to use to store clothing etc.
3. Keeps boxes for electronics and appliances so when it comes time to move those items already have a secure box.
4. Use plastic sandwich bags to hold screws or brackets together - then tape or tie to the object they belong to
5. Numbers your boxes and keep a notebook with a list of what each box contains.

Military Appreciation

In light of the sweet gift from an USAF retiree while garage saling, military spouse appreciation day, and armed forces day...I want to say how much I appreciate what the troops do for this country. I am honored to be married to a United States Airman! I am proud of his decision to serve and thank him for his commitment. Although we have to spend time apart because of his career, it is only making us stronger. Those days apart are hard, nights are pretty rough, but nothing makes me smile bigger then when he is finally home and in my arms. I thank God for giving us the strength and love to stay united through it all. I am thankful for the times Mr. Bumblebee is home and the memories we get to make together.

Take a moment today to be thankful for what our Armed Forces do. They are sons, daughters, fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, but most of all they are heroes. Maybe not public heroes but definitely heroes to those they leave behind.

I love my best friend, my husband, my hero.

Full of Sunshine

Enjoyed our first seedless watermelon of the season! Yummy! Spent today garage saling with my mom! Got a Jillian Michaels dvd for $1! Also Rob got a travel carrier for his golf clubs-greatest part is a nice veteran bought it and said it was a thank you for his service! So sweet! 

OH-IO

Since Mr Bumblebee is leaving this summer for Korea for a yr we too a trip to Ohio to visit his family. It was fun to see our nieces and we had our dream come true and attended a Cubs vs Reds game! Reds won and we had a great time! We also visited the spot of our first kiss <3

Color Splash

In the winter I won a photo shoot with a local photographer so we went ahead and did it mid-April. We took washable paint and watered it down a bit and had some fun! We also painted a canvas to use in the house and remember the laughs and love. I love that my Mr Bumblebee is such a good sport when I want a photo shoot. Love him!

Spring has Arrived!

Six months ago we booked a night at the Treehouse Vineyards in Monroe NC and the time finally came for our stay. We enjoyed a wine tasting, tour of the grounds, and some late night battleship fun! Such an awesome experience!

We visited my parents for Easter and went to Columbia SC zoo which was fun. My dad is still recovering well. Amen!
