Today is our anniversary! Warren and I have grown so close over these past two years and God has truly blessed us!
I pray that we will have MANY MANY more years together and that we will continue to grow in our faith together!

Hello June
In 11 days we will celebrate our 2nd anniversary!! It's amazing how comfortable and normal marriage feels now. I couldn't imagine my life any different
Lots going on in our home this month! So far we are planning a trip to visit my family, Warren may have to travel some this month, we are having a yard sale, all the adoption hoops (see our other blog for more details), and celebrating marriage, I don't know that we can fit anything else in this month.
Happy June!!!

Camping
As usual, we are preparing to go camping this year for Memorial Day with my parents. This will be the first trip that my Dad will get to enjoy since his injury last year (although, he still will not be able to ride his horses).
We are excited to get out of town this weekend and spend time with my family. With all the crazy hoop-jumping lately it will be nice to shut my brain, phone, and email off for a while!
In other news, does anyone know how to get a funky smell out of the refrigerator? A few weeks ago I discovered I left some veggies to spoil while we were out of town..yuck! Anyway, I've tried everything from baking soda to lemongrass, and even airing it out and nothing has helped!

April Showers? I don't think so!
So April was a great month in the Myers home.
We started the month in NJ, and the rest of the month just kept getting better.
The second week we both completed the last of the requirements for life insurance. I know, a morbid thought, but Dave Ramsey said it's important, and as we all know: if he recommends it, we'll probably do it :)
Later in the month we decided to take a quick weekend trip to Orlando! We hopped in the car on a Thursday evening (after having decided to go just a few hours before) and were in Atlanta that night. It's really nice that with the hotspot on my phone Warren is sometimes able to work from the car. So, I drove, Warren worked, and we were in Orlando by Fri. night. We spent the next 2 days at Universal.
On the way home we stayed with my parents for a few days, partially to visit but also because I needed to take my Dad to an appointment.
No sooner did we get home, get the laundry washed, and it was time to pack again. Warren had to be in D.C. starting the 30th. As much as I have traveled over the last nearly two years of marriage, I still HATE flying, so since we had the time we decided to take the train. We were able to get a room on the train which included all our meals for less than the cost of one airline ticket (we were returning on Derby weekend). It was nice to enjoy the relaxing ride and scenery out to D.C. I would recommend getting a room anytime the trip is more than 8 or so hours.
Anyway, that brings us up to May! Wonder what this month will hold? So far things are going great and we are having a blast! This particular season of life has been very good!

Travel
I have never been fond of Warren's travel. When we first married, he traveled EVERY week (Monday-Thursday) for the first nine months!
Last February he found a job that required only about 50% travel and payed a little better. So for the last year I have enjoyed having him home a lot more than before and now that travel is not as frequent, I am able to go with him some.
Recently, I have traveled with him a lot. A few weeks ago we drove down to Atlanta for his work. On our way home we were even able to stop in Gatlinburg for a quick overnight mini-vacation.
Last week, Warren left for NJ where he would spend two weeks. I stayed home the first part of the week since my Dad had an appointment on Tuesday and was staying with me that night, and I did not want to have to get a sub for my AWANA class on Wednesday for two weeks.
On Thursday I boarded a plane and headed for NJ to join Warren. The next day when Warren got in from work we hopped into the car and drove to PA to visit with some of his friends (one of the groomsmen, his wife, and new baby). It was really nice to have the opportunity to see people we would otherwise not get to see often.
On Saturday, Warren and I drove to NYC and enjoyed some of the sights of the city. At the end of the day we were able to watch the Hunger Games in Times Square.
Then, on Sunday we drove out to Long Island to visit with Warren's grandfather. It was a really good visit. Warren had not seen him since last summer at his family reunion I had only met him once before that - at our wedding (needless to say, we didn't see him much that day). After we left our visit with him we stopped once again in Times Square for a little shopping.
Finally before leaving we made our way out toward the Brooklyn Bridge. In July of 2009, Warren took me to a little spot called the Bridge Cafe and then we walked out on the bridge where he proposed. On Sunday, while it was too cold and late to take the stroll out on the bridge, we enjoyed a quiet and romantic late dinner at the cafe.
Tonight, we are able to have dinner with his parents. We have not been able to visit with them since they visited us at home last fall. It should be a good visit.
So, while I do not enjoy that my husband has to travel frequently for work, it is nice when on the few occasions I get to go along, and even better when we get to visit people we know in the area. We are looking forward to time with other friends in the area later in the week!

Spring Forward
The sun is shinning, it's a beautiful day, and it's time for spring cleaning!!!! I LOVE to clean!!! Crazy I know, but it's my favorite de-stressor!
Now, with that being said, I am learning that not everything can be perfectly organized all the time....especially with my husband and our tiny house! But, it keeps my hands and mind busy and gives me a sense of accomplishment at the end of the day to know that in this small way I am managing our home.
