Memorial Weekend!

If you follow me on Instagram, I’m sure you’ve seen this picture..

These pictures were from Memorial weekend 2010.. prom weekend.
However, we won’t talk about how the dude I was dating for over a year decided
to tell me he wasn’t taking me to prom.. an hour before everyone came over for pictures..
So after prom, everyone and their dates and some other all rented a house and had a great time! It was truly a great weekend of freedom!

Let’s jump two years from that fabulous little getaway weekend..

This Memorial Day Weekend!

Maybe I’m not on a lake partying or with a bunch of friends getting “white girl wasted”..
But, I am enjoying time with my man and time to relax!

Last night Lucas was suppose to work.. but he ended up getting the night off!!
So we met my parents at the Polish Festival! YUM, polish food!!

Today is my second, and last day off..
I think we’re going to spend some time at Lucas’ Parent’s house and go swimming!
We wanted to go to their cottage, but they’re coming home today.

 

As happy as I am about this amazing weather and time to relax..
I would like to thank all of those who has fought and died for our country and our freedom.

I hope you all enjoy your Memorial Day!
I also hope you don’t allow yourself to forget the true meaning behind this day.

Now or never... (QUICK UPDATE)

I wasn't lying when I said that I wanted to get back into blogging. However, life took multiple turns and I've been too busy to sit down at my computer and produce a decent blog post. It can't hurt to fill in anyone that still reads my blogs, but might not closely follow me on social media. After TWO years of being single and not being into the idea of dating anyone, I'm actually in a relationship. I know at the beginning of a relationship it's expected to be in the state that you feel like you've never been happier. The difference is, I've known my boyfriend for 11 years. When we were young, we'd always act like a couple. We never had a "title" back then no matter how many times we reconnected. Seven months ago, he finally moved back home. I was so excited to have him back in my life. Then I realized that I wasn't okay with just being his friend. After about 5 months of blowing him off and him giving up trying to hang out, I finally ex...

Sleepy Momma

I did plan on posting this previous week and the week before.. however, I've been so incredibly exhausted and busy. I guess that's a great way of putting, welcome to mom life! To be completely honest, I'm so happy with where I'm at in life right now. Yes, there are things that are difficult to deal with and I know some of those things will always be hard. For a while I wished that I could go back well over a year ago and made a different decision. I don't wish that now because I've grown so much and gained things I could never give up. My strength, my motivation and my happiness is at an all time high. It feels amazing. In other news...  I finally got a kitten! She's such a sassy girl, but she can be the most loving thing at times! When she wakes up and I'm next to her or when I pick her up, she grabs my cheeks and kisses me.  The bottom left photo is a result of a playful kitty that needs her nails trimmed. If you foll...

Thoughts from an ex-blogger..

My desire to get back to writing has been so strong lately. I can't seem to figure out if I want to blog again. At the same time, I REALLY want to blog again. I've found comfort in my privacy. This comfort has made me uncomfortable with openly sharing details of my life. However, blogging always was there to provide me with an outlet to express my thoughts, feelings and emotions. The people I was able to connect with through blogging was always an incredible bonus. I didn't want to blog when I realized that people that I don't want to be part of my life were reading my blog posts. During this time I also stopped being active on Twitter and Instagram. I felt that it was unfair to me that specific people were able to catch up on my life via social media. There are many issue I face with returning to my blog. I need to allow myself to step outside of my comfort zone of keeping my life private. I need to be okay with the fact that some people, that shouldn't be ...
