5 years ago....On March 1st

5 years ago on March 1st, it was a snowy day and Adam picked me up in his blue Jeep. We went to Ruby River and hung out with some of his friends. Yes that was our first date on 03/01/08. I can't believe that Adam and I have know each other for 5 years now. It has been the most wonderful 5 years ever. I love having Adam as my best friend. One thing that I finally put together after 5 years was that Adam and I had our first date together exactly 18 years after his Mom passed away. I don't know why I haven't put the two together before. When I told Adam he said that he had never thought of it before either..
On to the next thing... On March 19, 2013 I came home from school to find a white box on the porch...I opened up the box and this is what I found...
I continued to dig through the box and found....
A message in a bottle is what I found. SO CUTE!!!

Inside I found the sweetest little love letter from Adam. In case you were wondering..Yes I did cry when I read it. He is so super sweet to me and I am so lucky to have him in my life. In part of the letter he wrote how he remembered talking to me the first time and what I was wearing...that really got me. That he remember what I was wearing and how I did my hair. I really do have the greatest husband ever!



Now this girl....She too is awesome.! This last Friday Stella hung out with me after we both got off work. We went and checked out Gordmans that just opened up here. Let me just say, "THANK YOU CHELSIE!!! Thank you for introducing me to this most wonderful store!!" This store has EVERYTHING. I love it and I got a super cute top. After we went to Wingers, and it was super yummy and we were too full for dessert. All we can say is that we are both super excited for our hubbies to be home with us.


So thank you Adam for the most wonderful gift of being my best friend and for the amazing message in a bottle. I love it so much and have read the letter a whole bunch of times now. 

Then a special thank you to Stella for being such a good friend and hanging out with me.

The LAST PACKAGE

THE LAST PACKAGE!!! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!!!!

So this was a bitter/sweet moment. I sent of Adam's last package and he just got it a couple days ago. I can't believe that it was the last one to send to him before he gets home. I have loved putting together all of the packages and coming up with ideas for the next one.

Here is the inside.

So since it was getting close to Easter Adam wanted some Cadbury eggs. We both love them and I found a 36oz bag of them for 10 bucks at Sam's club. I took some out for myself of course. I didn't want to send him all candy for Easter, so instead of putting candy in the plastic eggs I wrote little notes for him. (sad part: Adam said that some of them were broken when he opened the box, oh and he opened the box upside down...) Adam also wanted Almond Roca. The pistachios I thought would be nice for the trip home. He said that he has little baggies that he can put them in. I told him to give some to his interpreter when he gets back from seeing his family. We are hoping that his interceptor gets back before they have to leave because he was going to be picking up some stuff for us. The fruit snacks are from my parents. Adam LOVES fruit snacks.

The saying at the bottom of the box

 I wanted to add a little piece of home to this last package so I made brownie in a jar and also blueberry muffin in a jar. Adam said that they were super good!! They were even still moist! One last thing that I sent along was a can of Dr. Thunder. The night that he got the package he drank the thunder and also ate a brownie. To say the least he was in Heaven. I told him that there will be Dr. Thunder in the fridge when he gets home.
My niece Ella colored this for Adam.
I can't believe that Adam is going to be home soon and I have so much to do before then!!! :)
Adam is doing really well, he is busy now packing up his "home" as we call it because he has lived there for a while. They just finished a big project and part of it Adam got to design and build a Grizzly...no not the bear...it's a type of rock crusher. It was pretty cool looking and I'm so proud of him for all the hard work that he has done. 

As for me..School is going good. We just took our midterms and I did AMAZING on my pharmacology test...192/200!!!!  As for my Mental Health class...that test was a joke and I still ended up getting above average on the test but it was a joke and everyone agreed with me on that. But we all passed which is good. I know that there are a couple of people that didn't pass and I feel really bad for them. :( So here is to 2 more months of school and we will be done for this semester.

Baby gift FUN!

 One of my very best friends Mindi is having a baby and yesterday was her baby shower. It was so much fun! Her sister made it an owl theme and she made owl cake pops, and deviled eggs. It was super cute! She got a TON of cute stuff! I just love baby things and I can't wait until Adam and I get to have kids of our own....although I may be in trouble because of how cute everything is...

For Mindi's gift I had a Motorcycle diaper cake. I love making gifts with diapers...I have made many diaper cakes, and I've made tricycle diaper cakes.

Here is the motorcycle..EVERYONE loved it!!!

 Here is the back of the motorcycle. I made a license plate for it and since they have not picked a name out yet I just did their last name. 


 I really like the handle bars, they're super awesome!! One of them is even a mirror.

I couldn't think of were to do with the outfit so I decided to do this....

I saw this idea on pinterest, it only had the diapers with the blanket though.  I think it all turned out super cute! I am so excited for Mindi to have her baby and meet little mini Garcia!
