I came to Memphis because my husband made me. I left the home I love because my husband made me. I'm making the best of Memphis because I made me.

Fear
Our lives are amazing right now! so much adventure about to happen and yet I still have so much fear about something bad happening to my husband. Call me crazy, but whenever I hear about death all I do is instantly think about Trent and how much my heart would break. Then I cry and cry and cry and then realize he is fine. It sucks. Makes it hard on me sometimes. We had a scare about a month ago about being prego and I was so not excited then yesterday I thought to myself that would be nice to at least have a baby that would be both of us if something ever happened to either of us. All I hope and pray for every day is that he is safe with me at the end of the day. I hate more then ANYTHING leaving him for 4 weeks and the biggest reason is I am a stress ball that something could happen to him while he is away and I won't be able to give him a hug or kiss. I just love him and I know that people are probably annoyed that mushy stuff is being written but its my blog so go away if you don't like it. Anyways hold on to your loved ones and hold them so tight and never let go. Love him with every piece of you. The biggest thing we have learned is when we fight or say something mean that we shouldn't have we just poke each other and laugh and in our ridiculous voices say BABE, and it works. We get over things so quickly and continue to just love each other. I am so grateful for my wonderful marriage and love you Trent even if I am a little crazy.

We spent the weekend making some pretty rad crafts, one of which is a mirror that we turned from dirty white to teal. Well, needless to say, we don't have anywhere to put the mirror on the walls, so it's just kind of leaning up against a wall on the floor.
Jack doesn't quite understand the concept of mirrors yet.
He'll walk past the mirror, catch a glimpse of himself and then he'll just stand and stare. He then sees our reflection in the mirror, so when we call him, he turns around to see where the sound is coming from and he sees us and you can just tell that he is so confused as to how we were over there and now we're over here. It's hilarious.

I'm officially THRIFTY!
So me and Trent decided we were gonna experiment. I follow this blog allthingthrifty.blogspot.com every day and just love it so I wanted to try. So Trent go this awesome piece from the DI and he took off the top tier and then we painted it this awesome blue color after priming it and then we wrote THE KEY in Italian at the top and Mail of the house in the bottom. I love it! adds some color and spice to our house. I am so excited to do more!
More to come! just wait!

Weekend fun!


This weekend was really fun and relaxed for hubby and me!
Friday night we stayed home all night and did nothing. We just watched a movie and got pizza and just spent some much needed time together.
Then Saturday came! Our friend Alice called me a few weeks ago and asked if she could take pictures of me and Trent, of course I couldn't say no, so we went. We took about an hour and a half worth of pictures and it was a lot of fun. a reason to kiss and cuddle and be right next to each other. Here are a few of the pictures she took that I loved.
After that we went and grabbed lunch real fast and went out to Meliss's and Jim's to watch Annie. it was so fun. she is walking and is so adorable. I can't believe how big she is getting. She is also getting really good at dirty looks. I love it! Jack absolutely adores her. Attacks her all the time and just wants to lick her face...oh man. But it was fun to see them play. Trent and I had an intense game of Tetris which was luckily ended by Meliss and Jim coming home! :)
After that we went home and rested up and then we were off to a wedding for our good friends Don and Jen Willie. It was beautiful. It was at The Point where we got married so that was bitter sweet cause it made me miss my wedding so much. But they did a fabulous job. I liked her cake way more then mine! but mine did taste pretty good! :) After the wedding me and Trent went to the movie Green Zone which then led to MILLIONS of questions from me to Trent and poor guy you could tell was just done and did not want to answer anymore questions! haha but it made for good entertainment! :)
Sunday we woke up went to church and then went out to Trent's parents and Jack just had a bawl. he loves running around with the other puppies and just being a spaz. go figure. then we went home to a meeting then off to the park with some couples from our ward and played some good old football! :) I was trash talking the entire time which I totally found appropriate! haha I am sure others have another opinion. we had fun though then went home and got quickly to bed we were both so exhausted. but before we went to bed we decided just to check up on how much it is to rent a uhaul for their drive to Memphis. for 7 days and for enough space for our apartment it was $1400!!!! NO JOKE! we just about died. man quite the trip, but hopefully we will find a better deal.

Life.
When I look back to two years ago or 3 or 5, for that matter, I always wonder where I would have ended up had I not done everything I know I should have. I am so happy that this is where we are. Trent has made my life so great. The past two nights we have been just laughing and remembering why we fell in love. Don't take life to seriously. Enjoy the silly parts of life like when your wife won't go to sleep cause she is giggling like crazy or how you and your spouse fight, but your husband just ends up laughing because he says I am swinging at him like a cat.
Seriously though, I have now realized my best advice is don't take everything to seriously. Enjoy the little things in life. Do what makes you two happy and nothing else. We got Jack because WE wanted too. We had a lot of people tell us not to, but we love him and we are SO glad we did. He has been a blessing to us and just a sweet boy. Gives us laughs all the time and every time I mention moving his tail wags. I know I know, he probably has no idea what I am saying but still. I love my boys and I love my life. Can't wait to go to Memphis for this big experience.
Anyone have any advice on Memphis??? I'd appreciate it!
This last Thursday was my Accadian year end show. It was hard. I will miss those girls so much, but I am so proud of them and they were so awesome. I will miss coaching but ready for something else. I am officially done now and no more waking up early! That is exciting to me! haha.
Spring break is this week and I plan on staying up late and hanging out with my hubby! So excited.
Hope all is well with everyone.
