time for myself

Last night I went and got my hair cut. I didn't realize how relaxing and therapeutic getting my hair cut is for me! It helped that the girl did an AMAZING job and cut my hair exactly how I wanted it so I wasn't horrified at the end haha. But it was so fun to just have some "me time". I got to sit and relax, have someone play with me hair and just talk! It was nice to have a little time for myself to relax.

Kevin picked me up after my appointment and I was so excited to see him. Sometimes I take for granted how amazing he is and everything he does for me. Those little moments of time alone by myself help me to remember how blessed I am to have him.

I love spending time with Kevin and friends and family but I think its good to still have some time alone for myself. Even if its just a few minutes reading a book or writing on this blog. Those little moments help bring me back to earth and stop focusing so much on things that don't matter.

So here's to a happy, long weekend with my handsome husband and maybe a few moments of alone time! :)


Until next time...

Holly :)

Third Time's the Charm..Maybe...

Last week as I sat down to go through some emails I remembered this old blog and got sucked into reading through past posts. I smiled, cried and laughed as I read through my memories over the last 4 years. :) It was crazy to read through and think about how much has changed over the years and how much Kevin and I have experienced together in the 6 years we've been married. My last post was from March of last year after a visit to Iowa. I could kick myself for not keeping up with this blog because last year was packed full of some of the greatest and hardest experiences of my life. Highlights from over the past 18 months: -We had a graduation party in Idaho for Kevin April 2017 and he officially graduated the following July! It felt so good for him to finally be done. He worked SO HARD and overcame some major obstacles and set backs.  -After Kevin walked in April we did a big trip to Utah and Iowa with Shawnii after watching her graduate with her Masters in Communication Disor...

Mid-Week Happenings/Ramblings

This week has gone by sooo slow. I woke up this morning thinking it was Thursday. Rude. Anyways...Here's some random happenings/ramblings from the past week or so... Kevin is anti anything Christmas before Thanksgiving...I'm the complete opposite. We've compromised. I can listen to Christmas music but cant hang any decorations (my pinecone and snowflake garlands don't count) until the Monday before Thanksgiving. I can live with those stipulations.  We made a goal with our friend G to not eat out at all this week (we may or may not have an addiction to midnight runs to McDonalds). We've survived so far.  Last night we finally watched the movie, "The Fault in Our Stars". Holy hannah. Ugly face cry the whole time people. It was so sad but so worth it, minus the random f-bomb.  I attempted to make homemade french fries for dinner this week...oh deary...Lets just say I wont be using that particular recipe again...or attempting to make fries again a...

March Travels Part 3: Iowa

We were home in Wyoming Sunday night, Monday, Tuesday then Wednesday Mom. Dad and I left around 6:30 am for Denver to pick up Lizzie from the airport (she had been a school trip to New York for the 6 days before then).  After we picked up Lizzie we began our drive to...IOWA!!!!  We were all very happy to have Lizzie back! I was no longer the lone backseat rider. :) We stopped in Des Moines for some ice cream...it was the perfect pick me up for all of us. Mason City was just a couple more hours away!! We got to Mason City around 10 pm. The kids stayed up for us and it was the best getting their tight hugs when we walked in. Oh how I missed them!! Kayleen and Jackson asked me to lay down by them (just like old times when Kevin and I lived there). It was the perfect ending to the day! Thursday we all slept in (even the kids!). We spent the morning relaxing and then Mom, Lizzie, Anna, Kayleen, Jackson and I went out for some shopping. Mom bo...
