hello world

i know it has been a couple of days since i posted last but been busy with spending time with mike. i love spending time with him. our anniversary was a wonderful day. we exchanged two gifts one in the morning and one when we got back from dinner that night. we go every year to applebee's for our anniversary dinner. it is just something that we started to do on our first anniversary as for the simple fact that is where we had went out to eat on our honeymoon and decided then and there that we would like to go back to applebee's every year. so far we have minus the 3 deployments that mike was gone on on our anniversary.

fourth of july was okay day for us. it really didnt feel like a holiday for us. we wish that family could have made it down to see or even just popped in for a surprise visit since we was not able to go back to alabama for a visit but that didnt happen. but oh well.  we cooked out for ourselves yesterday and cooked way to much food. we didnt feel like eating left overs for dinner last night so we got out around 5 and went and got us something to eat. then we came home finished watching the walking dead and then started watch pt 2 of the star trek movies that i got mike for our anniversary. then around 830 maybe it was alittle closer to nine. we heard people shooting off fireworks so we sit outside for alittle while watching them. even though this town has a band on fireworks in the city limits people shot them off anyways. that has me wondering why cant people respect the laws. they are there for a reason. dont get me wrong what is a fourth of july without fireworks but when you live in a town where the house are almost on top of each other and there has been no rain for weeks and the chances of catching something on fire is higher then why put your home and family and put others families and home at risk of being in danger. that is just something i dont get it. good thing that the people shooting off the fireworks wasnt right close to us. but it was nice to see some fireworks even if it still didnt make it feel like a holiday.

i am fixing to do a 10 day blog challenge starting today (and no this will not be the first post in this challenge lol). i am hoping that this challenge will give me fresh ideas to write about. i really would like to be able to write everyday and this is going to give me a chance to. if i start it today my last will be july 15 and then i can just put everything into our move. it is coming up fast and then once we get moved and settled i am going to do more blog challenges.

i hope you all are doing good and that everyone who celebrates the 4th of july had a fun but safe night and that you didnt get out here and drunk and drive. i also hope that you all have a good weekend and a good summer.
