wordless wednesday-stolen moment

July 14, 2010

Finally received all our gift items for our European adventure! Actually that’s not true, we are awaiting on a few more but not sure they will make it in time so we may save them for our local convention. I will tag all the sources in this photo. Just click on the photo and they will pop up. The items are microfiber lens cloths for cleaning phones/screens/glasses, tissue packets, variety of pins, stickers, contact cards, lego minifigures, bracelets, and candies from See’s and Jelly Belly. And then you can swipe to see how we put them together, kids(bottom) vs adults(top). We did a few different configurations, clear baggies are from Amazon. Now all we have to do is assemble, and pack, and get international driving permits, and buy melatonin, and buy adapters, and buy more clothes for kids who don’t own enough pants, and learn how to use a new camera, and....and....

Breaking all the rules on a school night✨ because when one of your all time favorites come to town that’s just what you do. Not to mention I need all the culture I can get to balance out those Snapchat filter stories 😆 #mylifeatplaytimeadventures

A few more pics to live here on the gram. Info of where these and my IG stories(I’ll make a highlight) are from, most are taken at Emerald Bay State Park and Sand Harbor State Park. We flew into Reno and it’s about an hour to where we stayed. Beautiful time of year in between the ski season and summer crowds, snow on the ground still but people in their swimsuits at the shore.

Snuck away for a few days to officially celebrate. This water, I don’t have a vocabulary to describe it, it’s the most beautiful color I’ve ever seen. Exploring spots like these make our hearts full and our bodies rested, and also remind us just how many more spots need exploring in this world 💚💙 #mylifeatplaytimeadventures #mylifeatplaytimevacations #laketahoe

•19 years smooching this man, 19 million more years and smooches to go. Ok ok maybe just maybe we’ve been smooching more than 19 years 🤭. Happy anniversary to the light of my world, let’s do this year better than ever ✨ •A little reflection-ok maybe it’s gonna be a long reflection- because it’s kind of insane, but I’ve officially been married to Aaron half my life. I am definitely no marriage expert and 19 years isn’t very long in the grand scheme of life. Someone recently asked what’s one thing I’ve learned during the last 19 years, one piece of advice to share. One? I feel like I have learned 50 million things and the longer I’m married the more I have to learn. But then I gave it a lot of thought, and if there’s just one thing I can share, just one piece that I found so unexpectedly valuable and who knows, maybe it can be valuable for you too. It’s nothing earth shattering, it’s not based on data or science. It’s actually quite simple....We go to sleep together. In the early years of our marriage we were raising little kids and I found that nighttime was the only time I could have to myself, I could get so much done. It was finally quiet. And while I would be awake for several hours, Aaron was getting his zzzs. Years ago, and if I had a functioning memory I could tell you when, or even why, but we changed all that and began going to bed at the same time. It fundamentally helped change our relationship. Sure, it took some figuring out and compromise for this night owl and that early bird. Sure, I have no clue the status or name of one single current television series. Sure, he gets a little less sleep than he used to. Sure, I wake up earlier than I ever would choose to. But...none of that stuff really matters. So there you have it, it took years for us to figure out that one piece, and I’m sure we have plenty more pieces to go. But looking forward to an eternity of piecing together our puzzle of life.

Because it’s still light out after dinner ✨

The look you get when you ask them to clean up their room. #dogsitting #mylifeatplaytimewithlouie

Happy 🌏 Day friends. Although what day isn’t a day to appreciate creation?! Hope you can get outside too 🌿🌵

Quite a special night with my people ✨ #memorial2019 #whoneedsafullsetofcrystalanyways

Firsts are fewer and far between as they get older, but they’re still there if you look for them. Off to visit dear friends in their SKE assignment in New Orleans. You know the saying about wearing your heart on your sleeve? What if it’s up in a plane?
