Over the last 10 years, whenever someone would ask Over the last 10 years, whenever someone would ask what's next for us when my husband was eligible to separate our answer was always the same, "depends on the day". Military life has challenged us, refined us and ultimately changed us. We've met some of our closest friends, made unforgettable memories with our families and have grown to understand our call to service. We've spent the last year talking through our options and just when we thought we had it all figured out, the opportunity of a lifetime came knocking + we agreed to 8 more years of active duty service (even typing that out feels surreal!!!!) God's plans are greater than our own, and the peace that came with this choice has affirmed that this decision was the best next step for our military family. Here's to more chaos, memories + growth! 🇺🇸
The price of your mental health is everything but The price of your mental health is everything but these these tips are FREE! And they make a huge impact! As with all habits, they are best added in slowly. Our next one we both plan to add in is legs up on the wall before bed for better sleep (esp key for when our spouses are gone!)

1 year ago today🫶🏼 Military life often has 1 year ago today🫶🏼 Military life often has us feeling so far from those we love. That if we were just physically closer, we would FEEL closer. Living in different time zones can make even meeting up for a phone call or FaceTime feel impossible. But I’m not sure I’ve ever felt closer to Kirstin than last year when the time zone difference was on our side. Me, in Alaska at 2 in the morning, + Kirst, in DC at 6 am. Having my best friend, who I haven’t lived near in 6 years, be my virtual doula the first time my body went into spontaneous labor 2 weeks early was one of the sweetest gifts of that day. (A gift for my husband too because it bought him 2 more hrs of sleep😂) We never know who we will meet along the way in our military journey when we open ourselves up to it, and this is just another reminder of how grateful I am for those who have come into my life 🤍
I used to SWEAT so much about making birthdays for I used to SWEAT so much about making birthdays for my sweet military kids feel perfect - especially when I knew my husband would miss their special day. I'd overthink every single detail just trying to fill the gap + make it special enough 😢 Over time, I've realized they don't remember the color scheme or even the trinket/gifts they receive. They carry with them the simple things - FaceTime Happy Birthdays from Dad on a flight line across the world, videos from military friends living thousands of miles away, or skipping school to have a special day doing what they love most. It might not be the perfectly curated moments we often see online, but it's real. And that's what they'll remember. Not the details, but the feeling of being seen, celebrated and deeply loved🥹 Comment "SHOP" and I'll send ya a link to the plate we use as a birthday celebration tradition that our kids LOVE! https://liketk.it/5dOHI
