The Truth Behind our 1st PCS Orders
The Tables Have Turned
April 4, 2015 was one of my favorite days. William Fine and I were "finelly" husband and wife... which also meant we were finally saying goodbye to long distance! We left our wedding reception that night, proudly displaying a banner that represented just that. October 7, 2016, was another one of my favorite days. William Fine was "finelly" home from his first … Continue reading The Tables Have Turned
Sweet Comfort

Four months later and I still find myself reading those fading words at least once a day. It feels like … Continue reading Deployment (Dis)Contentment
Expect the Unexpected
The New Year was off to a fun and hopeful start. I felt giddy walking away from a long year of change and into (what I expected to be) a season of comfort, knowing that I was finally on the other side of frequent tears. When I ended my last blog post with… “2016, you … Continue reading Expect the Unexpected

It’s hard to believe we just celebrated 6 months of marriage. 6 wonderful months as husband and wife… and I hear it only gets better. Thank you, Jesus.
