Thankful...

...for these girls, Lindsay and Bryanna:

(Lindsay, Me & Bry)

Our husband's were all serving on the same submarine in Washington and that's how we met! Now we all live in 3 different states, one on the west coast, one of us in the middle, and the other on the east coast. And can you believe it- we actually pulled off a little reunion! This picture is of us in Virginia Beach.

Wishful Wednesday!

I love The Seattle Smith's blog. She does a wishful Wednesday every week and I've not been around to participate for awhile... but this week I am! The theme this week is your bedroom. I am actually going to use this as an opportunity to show my bedroom as it is. We JUST finished completely redoing it!


My bedroom before we redid it- and I hated it- the gray was so blah and awful!

AND....

My wish came true- I now come home to a bright bedroom every night and I love it!
We obviously painted, as well as replaced the carpeting and got the bed from Crate and Barrel! I love that store!

But if I had my real wish, I'd also have a porch off my bedroom, with a view like this:


One can wish, right?

Happy Wednesday - the week is half over!

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there, but especially my mom!! I am so thankful that I have a mom I am close enough with, to still talk with her on the phone every single day! She is always there for me and it means so much!

This photo was taken last year in the harbor of Victoria, Canada!
