A long hiatus.

Wow, it has been a long time since I have come to my page to write and share my most inner thoughts. I took a break for awhile because we had a lot going on and I just did not have the time to sit down and write some good posts. A friend stopped by my blog last night and told me how much she enjoyed reading my posts, so I though I'd come freshen things up a bit!

Things have changed a lot since my last post, and are always evolving. We moved to Virginia Beach and are loving it so far. Trevor is home all the time and we can actually be a normal family. He even makes it home for lunch every day and is able to lay Trenton down for his naps :). I'm still in school for Criminal Justice, and will be continuing my education at ODU (hopefully) next fall to earn my bachelors. Trevor is planning to get out of the military after this enlistment so that I can pursue my career, and so that he can be happy with a career that he will love as well. While the military pays for a good life, we would just much rather be a civilian family! I have met a really awesome friend here in the complex, and she's from Indiana and is a Navy wife as well...small world :).

Right now I'm busy with Trenton, who will be two next week (holy cow), training our dogs, and doing my school work. Dog training is something that I have come to love, because as long as you put in the work, you will see the results. Gunner has a one on one trainer who meets us every week to teach us how to properly handle/train him in obedience. It's amazing to see the difference the training has made in him, and his temperament! He loves it when the kids at the playground come and give him lots of love :).

We recently got a new puppy to be Gunner's playmate. She is an Australian Shepherd and we named her Kora, which stands for "a companion" in Australia. She is 12 weeks and already knows how to sit and lay, she is so stinkin' smart...and FAST! So, that's what we have been up to for the past few months...nothing too exciting. I know, boring post, but just had to catch everyone up! :)!
