Valentines Day 2018

                 How crazy is it to say we are celebrating our 11th Valentines Day? Would you believe me when I say it has been getting better and better every year? Dennie has nailed this holiday on the head year after year. This year is my favorite yet. He had to plan this holiday because he wasn't going to be here for it. The day he left was at 2 am so he hid all the flowers and had talked to the boys that evening. They all had a little secret and it turned into the sweetest little gift ever. The next morning I woke up to two beautiful bouquets with cards, one for Payton and one for myself. Soon the kids woke up and said the girls weren't allowed in their room. After getting ready the boys told us girls to go down stairs and wait for them. Before long I had three handsome boys in front of us holding something behind their backs. Not to mention the sweetest smiles on their faces.
                Each one at a time gave a beautiful single red rose to Payton and I. I was in tears and Payton was over the moon. My dear sweet husband not only made us feel incredibly special 800 miles away. But taught my boys a valuable lesson. To love and honor the lady in your life. Even when its just your mom and sister. These boys have the best, most sweetest, father to look up to and I am so thankful for it.
                Thank you sweetheart. Really you've gone over and beyond with this one. 


               Many of you followers know how hard marriage is and know how hard Dennie and I have worked for our marriage to survive. After celebrating our Tenth anniversary in December he and I have noticed our Sweet and Sour selves are really the perfect combination. We are in a truly happy place right now and I pray to the good lord we stay on this path we are on for another ten plus years. Thank you Dennie for the most challenging 11 years it feels so good to have won the race.

The military ball this year was the best time! And my date was hot too.

These cute four have grown so much these last few weeks. Gavins smile is the cutest.
