Kind Of A Big Weekend For Us...

Friday was your typical date night in with home cookin' and a movie, but Saturday was the day we officially decided to buy a house. We've been talking about buying property or a house to rent out in Pensacola for years, and we've finally decided that it's time. Well, technically Will has been all for it since the beginning, so I guess you could say I finally came around to the idea after crunching the numbers and weighing out the pros and cons. I won't go to in depth about it yet, but I am pretty excited about the idea now and can't wait to get the ball rolling. Thanks for the input on the subject on Friday, and keep it coming!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The normal Friday night gang switched it up this week, so Saturday we had a fancy Italian dinner, and everyone knows that means 'wine night'. They just go hand in hand.


However, it only stayed classy through the meal, and then it was party time. It actually turned into one of those nights where everyone got to a whole 'notha level, so I was quite surprised when we were getting texts to go hang out in the pool the next morning. I'm not one to turn down a Sunday Funday in the pool, so off we went.




I'm pretty happy with this little group we've got and the awesomness that this summer is puttin' out. We are definitely going to make the most of our time before the boys {+Megan} go off to SERE school. It'a time to fully embrace summer!

  19. We have the same mindset. My husband completed all but a day and a half of SERE and was sent home (government shutdown) so he has to go back and repeat it all this August! Poor guy. So we're living it up and just enjoying this summer before he leaves, gets back, and begins workups for an upcoming deployment :(
