Duty Free Weekend!

 Chris finally has a duty free weekend this weekend! So exciting. It's so nice to be able to sleep in and not have to take him to work at 5 in the morning on a Saturday or a Sunday! 


Last night we went over to Kayla and Ryan's house and played beer pong and beer ping. Then we went over to Raven and Vdub's house and played more beer pong. I was Chris's DD so I didn't drink, just watched him get more and more trashed as the night went on! Lol, it was pretty fun though! I had to call Michelle to help me get him woke up because he slept for 30 minutes in the truck before I could even get him to open his eyes! Lol! I got the call that my rings were back yesterday! So exciting! They are soldered together now and super shiny! Just like when I first got them! 


Tonight me and Chris are going to dinner at Adam and Antonio's house. I have to make mashed potatoes. We're doing a pot luck kind of thing. After dinner it's going to be time to nertz it up! I can't wait! I haven't played nertz in a 
while, it's so addicting! We play for hours every time we play. Ok, well I just wanted to catch everyone up on our weekend.. 


I really need to get Cricket a hair cut, but I also really need someone to give me a million dollars to do a lot of things! Looks like her hair cut will be waiting! She needs another shot this coming check but then she's all finished up with her shots and I can definitely afford her hair cut! :) 


Have a good weekend everyone! Peace! <3

Life update/Gym day!

Today I will officially begin my journey to get unpudgealicious! :) Yeah yeah, I know I'm not fat but I'm pretty sure regular excercise is healthy so here goes nothin! Hopefully going to the gym lasts! I freaking tennis shoes are in the truck though and Chris has the truck on base. So looks like I won't be doing any running today. I can do other excercises without shoes on and move on to the running tomorrow when I get my shoes! 


On the plus side of life, I had my doctors appointment yesterday! I was a little nervous when I went in because last year the doctor just kind of blew off my concerns and basically told me I was too young to have a baby anyway and that there was nothing he could do until Chris was home for a full twelve months. Well, considering he's on the Ramage, that's never going to happen! But, I got there yesterday and had a new doctor! He started asking me questions and actually listened to what I had to say! He left the room and came back with a referral to a fertility gyno on Portsmouth! Yaye! Yaye! I have to have an ultrasound done to make sure I no longer have ovarian cysts and bloodwork done to make sure I am ovulating correctly and then I can move on the the doctor in Portsmouth! After being off of birth control for two years, I was starting to give up hope thinking that it was never going to happen. Me and Chris are in the prime age to have children. I don't want to be an old mother who isn't "cool" to her kids friends! Duh! No mom wants that! But anyway, fingers crossed, by the end of next month I know something. It will be a drawn out process but at least I now know that someone heard me out and I can see the right kind of doctor!


Ok well, since I updated everyone that kept asking how my appointment went, I think I'll find something to eat.


Well, the gym plans just changed as we speak. Going to a doctors appointment for Rebecca instead. At least I can start off the right way with tennis shoes tomorrow! :)


Peace! <3

NAS Oceana Air Show

I went to my very first air show yesterday! I had so much fun. Chris and I sat in traffic for two hours trying to get there but it was all worth it when the USN Blue Angels flew. I have only seen one other thing more amazing in my life and that was watching the USS Ramage pull in from a seven month deployment. When we got there we were starving so we stood in like forever at the gyro stand and I ate my first gyro! It was alright, but I could have done without the onions! Anyway, we ate our gyros and waited for the show to start. The USN Blue Angels started out by flying Fat Albert around for about ten minutes and then the real show started. They did some heart pounding tricks. It was amazing. I have never seen an airplane do something that amazing in my life. I know this probably is stupid to a lot of people that have been to air shows before but it was my very first one and I was utterly amazed. I was so glad that Chris was off work yesterday and we got to go together and spend the day with each other. It feels like we never do anything together anymore except stay at home like a lazy old married couple lol. I love my wonderful life with him though! I went to the air show again today with Amanda and Aiden. It seems like when me and Amanda do something we never think it through. We didn't have to wait in much traffic trying to get there today but like retards, we forgot money! Who forgets cash when you go to something like that! So we didn't have any money to get anything so drink and after we sat there for 3 hours under the hot beating after noon sun we were thirsty! Aiden got a little sunburned so we decided that we would go ahead and leave... little did we know that we would have to sit in traffic for 45 minutes trying to leave! I didn't get to watch the Blue Angels again today but I did see the new F22 Raptor fly today and some guys parachute to the ground, blowing red smoke behind them. It was fun today too.
USN Blue Angels
After we finally got off base, we went to Target to get Chris a pillow for the ship because he has duty tonight. He threw his away the other day because he says it was flat and lumpy.. lol, boys. So I got him a new pillow and bought some crisco to attempt the fried chicken tomorrow night. I saw Chris on the ship for a little bit and then came home. Cricket had been horrible since I got home but she's finally asleep under the computer chair now. I made a 7 11 run with Michelle and finally added music to my blog! I'm pretty sure I've been rambling for quite a while now. That happens when you're home alone and have no one to talk to!


Peace! <3

It's the perfect day to be a perfect day :)

I had a feeling that today was going to be a bad day when I woke up at 7:30 and realized I was late getting up to get Chris from the ship! Luckily, I made it in time and Cricket was so happy to see Christopher! So was I! I hate duty days so much. I'm so used to Chris being home every night now since he's back from deployment. Anyway, we got home and went back to bed for a while. Needless to say, there was no sleeping involved! Lol.. We had brunch and then went to get the oil changed in the truck. We had to wait forever, but at least Chris is here to wait with me now! He took me on a lunch date :) Which we haven't had in many months. We went to Golden Corral and I had to leave quarters for a tip, but hey, at least I didn't leave the lady with nothing! We came home and Cricket was happy that we were home! We went outside and Christopher changed the fog light in the truck and came back upstairs to start our lazy evening. Christopher is playing Nazi Zombies on the PS3 and Cricket is being super lazy today! She layed on my lap with all fours in the air. She's such a cutie and I'm so glad we finally have an addition to the Virginia Keppner family since the baby thing still isn't working out. On the plus side, I have a doctors appointment on the 20th and hopefully, fingers crossed, we figure something out! Tonight we're going to Adam's to watch Big Brother and play Nertz and COD.. which I suck at so I don't play lol! Chris has the day off tomorrow! :).. Hope everyone has a happy Labor Day!

Totally Confused!

This is my first post and obviously, I have no idea what I'm doing! I think this is an awesome idea though! It will keep everyone updated other than facebook. Hopefully I get this figured out and make it super cute! On the plus side, we didn't get hammered by Earl! I kind of wanted to see what it would be like with a totally full blown hurricane, but at least we don't have any damage to anything! We're taking Cricket to the vet to get her final puppy shot today. Hope she doesn't whine too much, I don't wanna get sad in the vets office! My poor baby! At least Chris is off work today and can go with me. He has duty tomorrow but then has the rest of the weekend off for Labor Day! Yaye! Hopefully we can get one more beach day in on Sunday before the weather turns crappy and we can't go anymore!
