My favorite time of day is the 30ish minutes right before the sun totally sets. No matter what time of the year, that light always seems to warm my soul and wash away the stressors of the day. So after a particularly rough day, well rough few weeks if I’m being honest, I took my […]

Each year, I like to enter a photography contest called Shoot & Share. The Shoot & Share Photo Contest is the world’s only free & fair photo contest.

“Life is not tried it is merely survived If you’re standing outside the fire” – Garth Brooks Brownie points if you understood the title of this blog without the little quote above. 🙂 Anyways…this training ranks easily in my top 5 most exciting ever! While I stayed safely outside the fire, Polish, Italian and Portuguese Soldiers […]

This is probably one of my more random blogs, but hey, at least I’m blogging right? 🙂 So if you have a military guy or gal in your life and they’ve deployed, they will tell you the worst part of it was the downtime. Evenings can be the worst. If you’re like me, you’re not […]

I love snail mail! It is so exciting when I get an actual letter or postcard in the mail. Basic was great because I had so many supportive letters from friends and family. My first piece of mail here was a letter form my cousin (who is in the Coast Guard Academy!) Every card I […]
