Our Crazy Family

Jesse and I just celebrated our 4th Anniversary! 


So, this made me think about our past four years of marriage and Ive discovered how busy we have been, ha! 

These four years have sure been crazy! 

We've moved six times!

1. Pensacola, FL



2.  Enid, OK



 3.Kingsville, TX


4. Lemoore, CA (two homes) 

5. VA Beach, VA


We've added a new family member in almost each place we have lived

 In Pensacola we got Coco. We actually drove eight hours to Orlando to adopt her from a breeder 

In Enid we adopted Hershey from the SPCA


In Texas we adopted Heidi at the Corpus Christi Humane Society

And in Lemoore (most of the pregnancy was spent here) and VA Beach we added a precious baby girl to the family

Jesse and I completed training/school

I decided to go back to school and get a Master's in Education.

 Jesse got his wings and now he gets to fly an awesome plane!

Gotta love how the military has shaped our lives and our family!
I'm sure there is more shaping to come!

Till Next Time!

Just a Few Things about Me

Welcome to my blog! Here are just a few little things about my life that I thought I'd share

  • I'm a Navy Brat! My dad was an E-2 pilot so we moved around a few times, living in places like Monterey Ca, Virginia Beach then the D.C. area. This is why when people ask me where I grew up my first thought is "umm....where do I start?" 
  • I graduated from the University of Maryland with a degree in Kinesiology, GO TERPS! 
  • I went back to school in 2007 to get a Master's in Education from Grand Canyon University.
  • I was a figure skater, I trained for 16 years until my back just couldn't take it anymore. And yes, The Cutting Edge "toe-pick" movie is my favorite movie.
  • I met my husband while teaching figure skating at the Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. My husband would want me to make sure I say that he was NOT taking these lessons, ha! We started out as friends then got married two days after he graduated in 2007.
Getting his wings!



  •  I have many passions which are being a mom, teaching, fitness and health. Ive worked as a professional skating coach, personal trainer and teacher and loved every bit of it. 



Love these kids!


  • Continuing with my lifestyle from my childhood...now being a Navy wife, we move alot! Ive actually lived five different places in four years!! And most I didn't even know existed, uhh like Enid and Kingsville!






  • We welcomed a beautiful baby girl in January 2011.

Easter

  •  We own two beautiful dogs, Heidi and Coco, who love to get into trouble and cuddle. For example, Heidi knows when the pantry is open and eat all the bread. Oh and dont dare leave frozen meat on the counter!
Coco, 2009

 These few things play a major role in my life and pretty much what my life revolves around; my husband, my child, my pets, moving and teaching/health and fitness. There's definitely much more that I could share so I guess you'll have to keep reading future posts to find out!

Till Next Time!
