Wheeler Farm

so Me and tan man decided to take Nathan, Ruby and Jenna to wendy's and then the farm. It was such a fun day. such great kids. Highlights: Not to happy but jenna got bit by a goose, going through the antique barn, petting animals, going on a little hike, playing on the teetor totter, getting a snack at the country store.

The state fair

On the list of things to do we chose to go to the fair. it was a bit of a bust but we still had some fun. Mainly we liked seein the animals. And really any time with tanner is amazing. he is such a loving husband.

GRANDMA'S COPPER BELT

So my mom inherited her mom's copper belt. It is an awesome belt. well i decided i want to wear it to go with my new pencil skirt. (this is the outfit i wore to pick up tanner in) if you look closely there are rings. well my grandma was so tiny that she only needed the one little loop. such a fun belt. and the shoes I got in an antique shop in montague michigan.

NEW YORK

So happy for my handsome. Its a bit out of order. But the day before he came home to me they were able to go to new york for the day. They all totally deserved it. He loved it and it was so awesome to see the pictures. they pretty much raced around everywhere to see it all. He did mention how he would like to go with just me so we could do what we wanted when we wanted. but it was still a great finish to those pointless 3 weeks in new jersey. I love tanner

Yellow Ribbon

Tanners unit sent us all to vegas for family briefings. We got there at like 10:45 friday night. it was nice to go with the whole unit. I now know why tanner always takes so long. its tough to get 150 guys through airport checkin and hotel checkin let alone having them

all bring someone. Sat 8 till 4 were briefings. and lots of info given to us about the deployment. afterwards the hotel wanted to do something nice for all of us so they held social event giving out free drinks. we then caught a taxi to the strip and gambled, and ate dinner. WE just love tim and anne. Higgins another guy in their platoon came along with us. sunday was more briefings after we swam and waited to go home. which took another 5 hours to get home.

The awesome dinner we got on our charter flight.

Me and tan man love going shooting together. so we woke up early tuesday morning and went west of the lake. we took a microwave to shoot and stopped at smiths to get a 12 pack of big K soda. we have so much fun together. I just love him so much. gotta soak in every second i can

Tanner D Nelsen Julianne Nelsen

This is the man i am in love with. It has been a wonderful one year for the two of us. also i feel as i look back it has gone by quite quickly. We have done tons of fun things together, camping with both our families, wednesday picnic days, many many walks at daybreak, got my new set of blades, lots of dessert nights, gone to the temple many times, faught, laughed, california, disneyland, midnight betos run, hung out with the fam, hiked, and loads of other fun stuff. In january we found out that for sure he would be deploying, so we jammed in as much stuff as we could think of. it has been a very hard 8 months. the anticipation has killed tanner and I. we have cried and while i cry he just holds me. Tan rocks at cuddle time. July 10 through sept 13 he is gone. ST louis, fort irwin, and new jersey. Been a very emotional time for me. luckily i have had tons of support and friends to hang out with. I get to jump in his arms september 13th and i cant wait. he loves me with all his heart. and i am so blessed for that. i couldnt ask for more. He will deploy oct 7th and that will be quite challenging. I was told by my bishop: one day at a time or even one hour at a time. he is 100 percent correct. when i think of 13 months it overwhelms me and i get very sad. but the fact that i have such a handsome husband who loves and cares for me we both can get through this. AFG will be the last deployment and 9 months he will be out of the service. Tanner is a responsible, humble and righteous man. I am so proud of him. he is an amazing soldier.

Wonderful Friend

Yes it has been A year in a half since i have blogged. Mainly because i forgot how to do all this, and because my old background was ugly. Well wonderful sara has taught me how to get back into all this. So now i will begin blogging more often.
