Do-Over? Yes please.

So I realized that I'm really bad at keeping up with blogs. I was good for awhile...only missing a few days or weeks...but it seems that once summer hit and life got busy, blogging was the last thing on my mind. I'm a little bummed, actually...I really like re-reading the posts. This blog is my best attempt at a family journal and I am really going to try and keep it up!! So, in order to keep it up, I've gotta get caught up! This is going to be one whirlwind of a catch up...

Our 1 Year Anniversary!!

April 4 - I woke up to a folded piece of construction paper and a red rose laying on Harold's pillow with a note inside that said everything I love to hear...it was the best way to wake up! :) Seeing as we were very poor newlyweds, I thought that it was the end of my anniversary surprise. But then I went to the door, and on the floor was a little Easter Basket! Our anniversary happened to fall on Easter this year...

I picked it up and just then Harold came down the hallway and told me he had set up an egg hunt for me through the house. I spent the morning searching for eggs, filled with my favorite candies! It was the sweetest thing, and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. :)

My Anniversary Surprise :)

Summer Begins!!

Harley & Daisy started to feel the presence of our shifted attention to the Baby, so we decided to give them a special treat...a pool! In the South Carolina heat, the water is sometimes the greatest escape. So we decided to give them their own personal escape from that southern sun. They loved it! Along with their absolutely favorite toy, the hose! It was a great start to summer :)

















Charleston Riverdogs Game

While in Charleston we wanted to do whatever we could to enjoy the little bit of free time the Navy allowed. So we took advantage of some free tickets to see the Charleston Riverdogs play. It was a fun night! We got to try out their famous hotdogs that we had seen on The Food Network.
Afterward,
they had a fun fireworks show in honor of the Military members present at the game.
Even Harold enjoyed himself, and he isn't that big of a baseball fan. :)

















Days at the Park

Just down the street from our house on the base is a park that the dogs and I visited almost every day. I walked to the same spot each time, to a bench right below a giant acorn tree. It was my favorite tree, mainly because it did an excellent job of shielding me from the sun. Most days we would spend an entire afternoon there, unless the weather was absolutely unbearable. (which some days it was!!) The southern humidity is really intense...thank God for acorn trees!!
