Military Spouse Appreciation Day

Today in honor of Military Spouse Appreciation Day, I'm joining together with some amazing bloggers, friends, and fellow MilSpouses to honor the Military Spouse Community.  During my time blogging, I've come to find that fellow Military Spouses are incredibly supportive, and whether you've met them in real life or not you can still consider them friends.

I hope you'll hop around and say hello.  I'd love to make some new friends and follow along with your adventures.

If you're new here, let me quickly introduce myself.

I'm Shelly. My husband is Active Duty Army.  We've been married for almost 8 years (next month!).  We have two little boys 4 years and 2 years.  In June we will be welcoming a little girl to our family.  It's quite an exciting time.

But as the typical MilSpouse knows, you have to be flexible, write everything in pencil, and pretty much have super powers to survive.  The Army has thrown a few curveballs at us recently too.
*We're putting our house on the market just weeks before having a new baby.
*The kids and I will be moving away early so that our oldest can start the school year at our next location.
*We'll have to move most of the household goods ourselves because we are going early.
And that is just to name a few of the upcoming challenges.

Mostly I blog about what is going on in my life.  I sometimes complain, but I try to find the positive in the difficult situations.  I know I have a very blessed life.  This is my outlet to express my feelings, wants, likes, stories of my kids, and just talk about whatever comes to me.

I look forward to meeting you and visiting your blog.
