Its that time of the week again! Thats right, today I get to pick your brains! (which sounds a lot like picking your nose...but I wont do that.) With our anniversary coming up, Ive been thinking a lo...
It seems like we are always celebrating something around here, doesnt it? Honestly thats the way I like it. Im a rememberer, a documenter, a write-it-down-before-you-forge t-it-er. I take lots of pict...
I have more marriage retreat posts I want to share, but I have something else I need your help with! Our very first anniversary is next month (!!!) and weve decided to take a little trip to Chicago f...
a shot from our visit on Monday...before I almost killed him. Good thing hes adorable. This week Mike was on alert which means that instead of visiting some exotic country like his other missions, th...
I wanted to write a little something about my mom for Mothers Day, but then I realized that there are several women in my life who are mothers to me in one way or another. Of course I have to s...
One of the things we learned about at the marriage retreat was the Magic Five Hours for couples. While Mike and I dont have an issue with this right now, I can see how important it will be once we ha...
Before I get to the fun marriage-y stuff we did at the retreat, lets look at all the cool places we went in our free time! Nebraska City is a small town, but its absolutely beautiful and theres so mu...
Were back from our marriage retreat and are trying not to be too sad its over. Its nice to be home and all, but we both agree that we could have gladly stayed for a week! It was great to get out of t...
Ive been a little absent from the internet lately, but let me tell you, it was worth it. Sometimes its ok to be a bad blogger to be a good wife, yes? Like I said on Monday, Mike got a few days off af...
Mike is home after his adventure to South America (seriously, he gets to go to the coolest places! Makes me almost want to hate him sometimes...) and hes off the next few days. Today were spending th...
Theres no girl talk today because today is a day for remembering. One year ago today the South was ripped apart by the worst tornadoes it has seen in decades. One year ago I stood outside frant...
a shot from Pops birthday last month (thanks sis!) I was talking to Pop yesterday and was lucky enough to catch him in a talking mood. It doesnt happen often, but when it does you sit back and h...
We all have our weaknesses, those things we cant resist getting even though we know we have a dozen at home. Yesterday I indulged in a couple of mine, which made me think its a good thing I dont go s...
Look what came in the mail this week! Is it weird that Im already thinking about how maybe one day our kids or grandkids will have it in their home? Or maybe its because I can see this on our m...
Two years ago today I got an email that would change my life. I dont even remember if I looked at his profile right away like I did when I first signed up six months before. The initial exciteme...
Source: cityofblackbirds.com via Bg on Pinterest Mike and I agree about 98% of the time. We are so alike sometimes its creepy (well done, eHarmony!), but its that 2% that keeps things interesting. &n...
A few things have happened lately and I thought I would share! Mostly Im too excited/distracted to come up with a better post. It happens, right? After all these months, I FINALLY got my Nebraska tea...
Can I just say I love holidays? Yes, all of them. They turn what wouldve been another regular day into an event, a bright spot in an otherwise boring week. It reminds me of something else Im learning...
Just call me Celia Foote. I thought that today we could share some of our favorite recipes. There is only one rule: IT MUST BE EASY. And when I say easy, I mean so easy a sleeping toddler could make ...
Since spring has officially hit Omaha and the annoying snow has turned into beautiful come-play-outside weather, weve been out and about more than usual. After church on Sunday we went to pick up a u...
I never really thought that Mike would change his mind about going to a ball when I brought it up a few weeks ago, or at least not so soon. The fact that he offered to take me just because he knew it...
You know what theyre talking about. If theres anything that girls like to talk about, its our exes. Whether you remain friends or become bitter enemies, theres a part of you that always wonders how t...
Its time for another six word memoir collection! The first post was such a hit (some of the best memoirs are in the comments!) so I decided to ask a few of my dear bloggy friends to share their memoi...
The apartment is slowly coming along, and I wanted to share one of my projects with you. It didnt require much creativity to be honest, but Im so proud of my little jewelry corner. Thats our counterp...
Everyone has at least one celebrity crush, right? Its inevitable. Mike and I were just talking about them this week after watching Iron Man (itll pretty obvious why in a minute). Mike is the least je...
Im going to attempt to summarize our entire week in one post (except for the first day which I covered here). After all we did over the week and the unreasonable number of photos I took, this is goin...
Today Mom flies back home to Alabama after an amazing visit. She got to see all our favorite parts of Omaha, eat ALL the food (although I helped her with that) and we even surprised her with a certai...
So Im shamelessly using this weeks girl talk to get your opinion on something. By some mysterious magic, Mike suddenly changed his mind about the whole military ball thing and bought us tickets last ...
Mom had a great first flying experience (with the exception of witnessing a little airplane mishap) and yesterday was a promising start to our week. I took her straight downtown to Old Market, ...
With my mom flying in TOMORROW (eek!!), Ive had extra motivation to do all the little things around the apartment that Ive been meaning to do for months. She keeps insisting that I dont go through an...
