Struggling
I haven't posted much lately about my husband and I and how were doing with our LOVE DARE.
He and I have really had a hard few days, not because of the Dare's and what they involve, just because of all the things that have been happening in our daily lives. Tanner is preparing to leave for a month on Monday, so that includes packing, gear ( Read more... ) -
Love Dare-Day 3

Macie && Ethyn
I am no longer in need of a puppy. :) We found a 5 week old Jack Russell Terrier some one was just giving away! We've named her Macie, now she doesn't have any of her shots and I don't know the first thing about caring for a puppy, so I am doing a lot of research.

Love Dare -Day 1
My husband and I have a friend who is struggling with her marriage. Horribly, he passed out drunk last night on the air mattress after antogonizing her for hours.

A new adventure
So yesterday we decided to take a trip with Aizik and the little girl we babysit, Renee. Tanner's buddy Josh had his little girl with him for the iweekend, and we all thought it'd be fun to go to the Aquarium we've been told a lot about. Now Tanner and Josh are both Marines, and their fellow "buddies" are navigating for us during the trip. We get ( Read more... )
