Two heroes

Last week I featured two amazing wives as they welcomed home their own heroes. I wanted to give you a peek at the life of one of them.

This is Cara. She has a story...





Did you watch the video? Are you in tears yet? Last weekend I watched this amazing woman be there to give that first hug, that first kiss, shed those first tears, to her hubby as he returned to her, a hero in his own right. Cara is the other hero in this story, as she fights everyday to help lead the cause for a cure to cystic fibrosis. If you are as moved and inspired by Cara's story, and her life as I am, please consider helping her fight for more time. http://www.cff.org/great_strides/dsp_donationPage.cfm?registeringwalkid=5860&idUser=217660

Teaser for T

Logan's best buddy turned ONE this month! Here's a quick teaser for him!

Cruisin' the beach

Cars really aren't my thing. So, I'm sure my hubby got a good chuckle when he heard I was packing up the dog and the baby and heading down to the boardwalk to the Crusin' Virginia Beach car show. They must have had 20+ street blocks of cars lined up on the boardwalk. Of course I probably just breezed by the ridiculously expensive cars that you'll probably only see once in your life, but I wouldn't have recognized them. Nope, give me the souped up jalopy with a hood ornament and I'm perfectly happy!

Ear Muffs

Little A was probably the easiest baby for me to entertain and get a big smile out of! He is a natural in front of the camera and had me cracking up with his ear muff pose. We weren't even saying any bad words either!

Bittersweet

Today was bittersweet. I think it was the toughest day for me since Andy has been away. It truly felt like such an honor to be there to share in such a memorable day for Tiffany and Cara, but it did bring a few tears to my eyes as I longed for my hubby's return. Both are remarkable women and I could feel the pride, the anticipation, and the (lack) of patience beaming from both of them like a 3 year old trying so very patiently to wait for that ice cream cone. That moment, is so very special. When time stands still and you think they are never going to taxi down that runway...when you spy them for the first time as they descend out of the jet...when they release the crowd and you can't seem to reach that special person fast enough...and when you finally do, you want to hug them as tight as you can just so you know it's real. Congrats to you both! I know it has been a long time coming. I know my day will come, I just have to give it a few more months...

He has Risen!

Easter blessings as we celebrate His ressurection!

Cutie-patootie

Haley was a little shy for her 6-month photo shoot. Her mom had to pull out her bag of tricks to entertain a smile out of her! Off camera she'll flirt and smile with you all day long! This little cutie is off to Japan by year end!
