Ornaments! :)

Sooo... Evan had to run some errands today and while he was out he got some ornaments for our Christmas tree! :)  There wasn't a "Bentley" one... So we will have to check in with them in a couple of days when we get back to North Carolina to see if they have one yet... Evan definitely surprised me with our new ornaments!  He is so thoughtful!  They will look great on our tree in a couple of weeks! 




We are heading up to Ohio around 5:00am tomorrow morning... Frankie will be babysitting our babies for us while we are gone.

Brotherly Love :)

Brotherly Love!!  <3  Bentley and Kosar cuddling!  Bentley loves to go and cuddle with Kosar on Kosar's bed.  And of course Kosar is more than willing to let his brother lay with him!!  They are so cute! 




Getting ready...

This year is flying by!  We will be leaving early Wednesday morning to drive up to Ohio to spend Thanksgiving with Evan's side of the family.  I can't believe that it is already Thanksgiving!! :)  This weekend we have been busy getting things ready for our trip up north.  We will be leaving the pups with Frankie for the weekend. 






We will be staying home for Christmas... So we are going to be getting a real Christmas tree! :)  We are going to get one when we get home from Ohio.  We are both really excited to decorate for Christmas as well!  I love the holidays!

Priest Meeting! :)

We met with the Priest today.  Everything went really well.  We got back our foccus results and we scored really high in the 90's and even got 100's in some sections.  :)  We talked to the Priest about how we fell in love.  And how we met.  We love our Priest!! :)  We have another meeting with him on January 24th for dinner.  


Evan also signed up for his classes today!!  He will be a full time college student January 5th.  He is nervous and excited about going to college full time.

Ceremony Music...

Today we met with the music director to pick out ceremony music... Our music director, Alex, is amazing!  He played us so many different songs on the piano.  It was so calming to spend the afternoon listening to Alex play and sometimes even sing us songs for our May ceremony.  He even played some of the hymns for us.  Evan is a big fan the the traditional Catholic ceremony music.  So all of our ceremony music fits us perfectly!  We are definitely excited about our picks!  We meet with the Priest on Monday.  <3


Here is a pretty neat video... my momma sent this to me...

Happy Veterans Day!!

‎"A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to, 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today, who no longer understand that fact."


‎"My heroes are those who risk their lives every day to protect our world and make it a better place--police, firefighters, and members of our ARMED FORCES." 


Happy Veterans Day to all Veterans!!  But especially my Evan and my Grandpa!

Happy Birthday Marine Corps!!

Today is the Marine Corps Birthday!!  I am so thankful to all the Marines for everything they do for our country.  And I am so proud of my retired grunt for everything that he has done. <3  I came home from work today and made Evan his favorite meal... Stuffed shells.  :)  Such a great way to spend such a special day.  


"Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering if they made a difference in the world.  But the Marines don't have that problem." -Ronald Reagan


"To observe a Marine is inspirational, to be a Marine is exceptional." -GySgt Charles F. Wolf Jr.

In wedding news... My dress will be here in one month!!  Mikayla's flower girl dress just arrived!! :)  We will be meeting with the music director this Friday and the Priest next Monday.

All Saints Day

Busy day for us!!  It was Evan's second "real" day being out of the Marines.  He had to run around trying to get his benefits lined up and get everything ready for school.  He starts full time in January! :)  I had to work today... Then rush home for church at 6:00pm.  


Today was also All Saints Day.  It was a holy day of obligation for us.  So we went to Mass.  It was a beautiful Mass today.  It's always refreshing to go to church during the week.  We also lit a candle at church for my Grandpa and Grandma Cathy Walker that passed away.  They are saints in my heart... They just haven't been named yet.  I love them dearly and think of them everyday. 
I miss them more than they would have ever thought possible...
