As I'm busy cooking this baby in my belly, I'm also busy planning our sweet lil man's abode.  Here's a lil taste of what's to come.  My mama is in town and working up a storm to finish his bedding. 

I'm so excited to see the final product. 

Watching this....




And drinking this...





Until you do this...




I'm pretty sure tonight is going to be one of those nights.

P.S. Pretty in Pink is my ALL-TIME favorite movie, followed 2nd by The Breakfast Club.

Yes, yes I am an 80s movie, John Hughes fanatic. As a child born in 1980 I think I'm slightly obligated. When they say they don't make movies like that anymore...THEY are right. The closest they ever came was Can't Hardly Wait.

Cheers :)

Do you ever have those songs that just make you happy? Songs that put you in a good mood?

Sure I have songs that makes me want to dance, lift of a glass, or sing along (or maybe even cry) but some songs just make me happy. They lift my spirit and sometimes we need a lil lift, am I right?



You may have seen a portion of this on the Super Bowl. Its a great song but the video is pretty darn cool.



And this song makes me delirious happy for some reason. It makes driving to the grocery store or typing up my 5th report of the day so much more enjoyable.

What songs are making you happy right now! I can always use a lil more cheer in my days!

And if those songs don't make you happy how about this....



MAD MEN IS COMING BACK!!!!

Hope everyone has a lovely Vday! Unfortunately I probably won't get to see my valentine until 10pm tonight but at least we got to eat breakfast together this morning.



And of course I needed to throw in a little puggie action today!

XOXO

Waking up in the morning and walking in the kitchen to see this hanging on the chair warms my heart.


So happy to have him home...

Thank you all for the kind and sweet comments, emails and texts over the past few days. Its been wonderful having Mr. Jetplane back.





Our life is almost back to normal...as you can see :)

I hope to share with you more in the coming days... off to enjoy a couple's massage this afternoon with my husband :)

My cup runneth over...

Its almost end of the summer...


While most of the world is probably sad about that fact I am not. I'm freaking happy the summer is almost over. You know why? The end of summer means my hubby will be heading home. Its all classified so I can't tell you anything specific but in the coming WEEKS (WEEKS PEOPLE WEEKS, NOT MONTHS! WEEKS) he will be packing up and heading back to America. WOO HOO!


Hey sexy hubby....get your fine ass home ASAP :)




The Jetplanes have been discussing a lil post-deployment vacay and we've finally booked it. We're going to Hawaii!! Honolulu to be exact. Mr has been once but I haven't been before. Now that we live on the western side of the US it makes the trip a lot easier and less expensive. We'll be staying at Hale Koa Hotel . Its a military resort on the island which we've heard great things about.



I'm so excited! Thank you so much for those of you that have provided help and advice for this trip, I really appreciate it. Anyone else have any recommendations for things to do and see while we're there, I'm happy to take all the suggestions I can get.

But keep em' PG. My mother busted me out on Facebook letting me know that she'd like to get some grandkids out of this romantical vacay.... yes I about died when I read that as well. Subtle huh? Yeah...that's never been her strong suit!


Here's to time flying by (no pun intended)...

I woke up this morning and missed my husband. This is not an unusual feeling but some days its a lot stronger than others. He is switching from nights to days, and this is going to drastically change our pattern. He's going to start calling in the middle of my work days which is difficult. Its difficult because I work and am on the phone a lot. When possible, I pick up the calls and whisper "call back in 10 minutes". Which sometimes is 10 minutes or 2 hours. It pains me to wait...sometimes he can't call back in 10 minutes. I won't get to speak to him again for 24 hours and that makes me very very very sad. But I have to remind myself, my life cannot stop because he's gone. I hate missing his calls if I'm out for a walk, messing in the garden, or just on the other side of the house and away from my cell phone.

This is what your life becomes...waiting for a phone to ring...waiting for a lil green Skype icon to light up so you can see your husband. BUT Happy News - My handsome husband shaved his mustache the day after his birthday. I Skyped with him on Sunday night. I kept telling him how hot he looked, I haven't seen him clean shaven since beginning of March. Sadly, he is growing it back :(


Below is a picture from Mr's Squadron door. I think this picture speaks volumes. Obviously this picture isn't from the summer in Afghanistan. Its from the winter deployment. This is the door from Mr's squadron out to the flight line. This is the last thing they see before heading to the jet.

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. We sure did :)

I married the man I adore, the man that makes my world go round, and the man that brings a smile to my face.

As we prepare for another Memorial Day I ask you to think about the true meaning of the holiday...






This Memorial Day please take the time to honor those that gave all for our freedoms.

Someone else was taken from this world way too soon. He was truly one of a kind, the life of the party, the guy that could make you laugh without saying a word. He was a friend to all. He will be truly missed. Rest in Peace Adam. This one's for you... If there's a party up in Heaven I know you'll be there.

Side note - Please be careful out on the roads. Life is so very fragile. This is my 2nd friend in less than 6 months that was involved in a serious car accident. Take care out there people, for your sake and for the sake of others.

I apologize I have no makeup on and may have shed a few tears...

I will get crafty... Well honestly I made the 1st wreath before he left. This wreath will be displayed for the entire deployment. I chose to make the wreath with Mr. Jetplane's squadron colors. Next is my Easter/Spring wreath. Its super easy. I purchased a foam wreath from Michael's that was 50% off. I used several packages of mini poms from the dollar store. Its simple...I used hot glue to attach the poms around the wreath. I was able to do the whole thing in about an hour while watching television and talking to Mama Jetplane....Something else cute that I picked up at Michaels...these adorable circus theme journals, cards, and cupcake wrappers. They are in the dollar bins...nothing better than that right... I'm eager to see Water for Elephants and this puts me in the mood even more.
