God Bless our Troops

Workout today consisted of a nice 3.2 mile run with 30 minutes of upper body weight training

I wanted to say thank you to all of our servicemen and women out there. Especially to those who are far away this time of year. N was away for the whole holiday season when he was in Iraq and I'll never forget how sad it made me to miss our 1st holiday season together.

4 days till our favorite time of the year!!! Are you in the least bit ready?! I am- BRING IT!! But please, don't bring it too fast- I want to soak up every second on Christmas morning.

Thank you veterans



As you all know, N is a war veteran. He served our country for 4 years in the United States Marine Corps. He served 1 tour in Iraq during the elections, and protected the US from Japan when he was stationed there.

I want to say thank you to my Marine and all the other men and women who have and who are serving our country. What they are doing is the most honorable, selfless thing anyone can ever do. A big thank you and shout out to the families of the troops, because I can speak from experience when I say, its a tough job being a wife of a Marine (or soldier, airman, seaman ;) )



I hope everyone should thank troops not only on Veterans day, but EVERYDAY. If you see military, whether it be active military, reserve, or former, thank them! Weather they have been overseas in combat, or just worked from the US, thank them. As most of us learned last week with Fort Hood, being on base, on US soil, does not mean our troops are 110% safe at all times.

OORAH and thank you to all veterans and present military!

Don't ever forget

I want to thank every man and woman out there defending our freedom "over there". N had the privilege of serving 4 years in the United States Marine Corps and he did 1 tour over in Iraq as well as being stationed in Japan for 2 years. Today is important to remember why we are over there and remember all those that were in New York City on September 11, 2001. We should all keep the families of those effected by 9/11 in our prayers and thank every service man/woman you see. I think everyone can remember where they were when they heard of the tragedy. I can remember not even believing it. I was a sophomore in HS and can remember not even comprehending the extremity of what happened and what would happen next.

I want to say thank you to my husband who is my biggest hero and who I think is so brave to have done what he did for our country. I love you baby
