I am feeling super sentimental this morning - As of today I have been married 8 years. I know this is not as monumental as some couples who have been together 20 or 30 years, but I am proud of them. They have been 8 happy loving years filled with laughter. They have been trying years filled with LONG separations and out of the 8 years I think we have one spent 3 or 4 anniversaries together. This year we are separated again. I miss you baby... I love you and you are the BEST decision I ever made. Happy Anniversary

Neptune Festival -

So while Jay and the kids are away, Dylan and I thought we might head on over to the Neptune Festival in Virginia Beach. We had a blast - The weather started out crappy, but ended up being GREAT!!!! The sand sculptures were AMAZING! I am posting a couple of my favs from the festival! Such a great day!

Jay's Re-enlistment

Wow 2 updates!!! I am on a roll!!! Yesterday was a big day in our house, Jay re-enlisted for 5 more years in the Air Force. While he is a little sad at how the Air Force is changing, he is in for the long haul and we are still praying to get overseas. I am always amazed at his dedication and love for he does. May the next 5 years bring him happiness. Here are some pics to share!

It is about time that I posted some random pics from Dylan's 5th Birthday -
We celebrated his birthday at his BeBe's house with the family there -

We had a hard time finding any Backardiagans themed cakes - so Jay and I created one :)

We all sang Happy Birthday to him -
