Sometimes I feel like I get homesick from the weather in WV but I just keep reminding myself that we won't be here forever so enjoy it here while we can I guess. I also pray for God to keep my heart here and not longing to be somewhere else because here is my life right now and I wouldn't want to be anywhere Jeremy isn't. God has us here for a reason, why? Who knows, we may never know. I do know that we love all of the friends we have here and they would do anything for us in the drop of a hat. We have an awesome church and want to get very involved there!
I think A LOT about our future. I wonder where the Army will have in the next couple years? Will we still be here? Will I ever be done with school? Will we have children? I think about living on the east coast closer to out families. I have this dream of when we do have kids that they experience the closeness of family that Jeremy and I did when we were kids, we grew up with our grandparents. I think about having our first and last house...
I have always wanted to build my own home so it can be exactly what I want. I can see my dream house now....A southern style home with a big rap-around porch with big white rockers, and spacious foyer with a home office on the left, a dinning room on the right and a beautiful stair case right in front of you when you walk in. After you walk through the foyer and down a little hallway to the back of the house I want all of that to be open, a big family/entertaining room, a huge kitchen for me to cook all day in and off the kitchen I want a big laundry room that is very organized and a mud room off the two car garage! Upstairs I want 5 bedrooms. Master bedroom, kids rooms, a craft room for me and a guest room. In the basement (we will have a basement because we will live on the east coast where there are basements) will be Jeremy's man cave where all of his UNC Tarheel memorabilia will be showcased and he will have the ping pong table he has always wanted! Out back I want a huge fenced in yard, a practice green for the hubbs, entertaining space and huge outdoor kitchen!
Okay I know I have a huge dream here and I might sound a little greedy but a girl can dream right? Maybe one day we will have a home like that!
I truly believe a home is what you make and love holds up the walls so love is really you need!
Wait how did I get there? Oh I was talking about when I think about our future. I think about all the many years Jeremy and I have to look forward to and all the memories we're going to make. I have all kinds of family traditions I can't wait to start. We have some of our own now but some have to wait til we start a family!
Let me finish today by saying I am so thankful for everything and everyone God has given me! Jeremy and I are so blessed!
Hope you all have a lovely weekend!
