Back on U.S. Soil

It was such a good feeling driving to the airport knowing you are going to see your personal solider. My brother just returned home for his mid-tour visit. It's been fun having him home, hearing stories and catching up with family & friends. After spending some time with him it makes me so thankful for our troops and families who sacrafice for our freedom! Thank you, Jordan for serving. We love you!

Happy Closet

Recently, I purchased a few new clothing items for my "work wardrobe." I'm tired of wearing the same old pants with the same random tops. I tried to purchase new basics with a few fun items. I also re-organized my entire closet so this makes the mornings easier and a little brighter! Here's to brighter mornings...

Plum Crazy

Recently during my latest travels I was introduced to a new series of novels that I've found quite entertaining. Stephanie Plum is the main character in the series and is a bounty hunter - there's always adventure and great excitement following this character's storyline. For me, it's been a fabulous pass-time and I'm looking forward to reading more by Jane Evanovich poolside - hurry up summer-time!

Decorating

Decorate \Dec"o*rate\
To deck with that which is becoming, ornamental, or honorary;
to adorn; to beautify; to embellish; [1913 Webster]

Syn: To adorn; embellish; ornament; beautify; grace.

This past weekend I set out to "beautify" my new living room. Decorating I believe is a natural talent. Some people embrace this gift and others do not. I am in the latter category thus I brought my mom along. We found a couple of great buys! Although the living room still needs a bit more work, it really is turning out great and finally feeling like home.
