Always Getting Ready

So, when the guys are home they are never really home, home but they are always getting ready for what ever their next job may be.  What does that mean?  That means packing and repacking.  Leaving for the field or range for three, four, five days at a time.  The closer it gets to deployment the more often they go and the longer they stay.  


Michael headed out this past week for a 7-8 week field problem.  It is always hard to be apart but I am thankful that thus far he has been able to call me.  He is enjoying being on the mainland, west coast even, but it does make him a little home sick.  We both miss Southern Oregon in the fall.  

Anyway,  I am much looking forward to November when I get my man back.  Trying to keep my chin up though because I know there will be a lot more training in the coming months.

Our Family Keeps Growing!

So yes.  We have added a new member to our family. 


 His name is Lux and we adopted him this past weekend.  He is around seven months old and is a lab/golden mix.  He is absolutely adorable and has way more energy that one puppy should. 




Marley loves having a playmate and I don't think they ever stop playing!
 

I think we are going to have many great adventures together :)

Happy Birthday, Michael!

Happy birthday to the most wonderful man out there!  So happy we have had 12 months with him stateside and I don't have to worry about his safety right now.  I love this man more than he will ever know!

Living in Workout Clothes

So in case you didn't know, I am in search of the perfect me :)  What does that mean?  Well....

A lot of this....

And a lot of this...


And if you want to know the best workout video....





Needless to say, two workouts a day are starting to work and I'm feeling pretty good about all of that.   My fabulous running partner, aka Michael, has been pushing and motivating me along the way and we are scheduled to run our first marathon in December!

Here's to a healthier, happier me :D
