I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness and to have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed and to share the silence when they are not and to live within the warmth of your heart and always call it home.

Seattle WA Trip

Seattle, why Seattle? Well my husband got home in September from his year long deployment, and really wanted to visit his besties in Seattle. We planned on making a quick trip whenever a 4-day weekend rolled around. We'd just returned from a two week stint in Ireland, but saw an opportunity. Veteran's day weekend was approaching and my husband found really cheap tickets....boom, looks like we're doing this! I absolutely love our spontaneity.

Yes it was a tad bit crazy, but this is our time. My husband and I are in our mid 20's, financially stable, great jobs, childless and living on our own. There's no time like now to do these crazy things. In the future we'll be tied down with heavier responsibilities, rug-rats and jobs that may not be so flexible. We'll want to fly home all the time for our children's sake and be more responsible. Now is not that time. So without much hesitation we spent the long weekend in Seattle, WA!

We had an amazing time with our best friends. We all went through college together and his best friends quickly became mine. We don't know where we'd be without their friendship today, love you two. Thank you for the best 4-day weekend we've ever had.
