As you could probably tell, I kind of disappeared the last few weeks. But in my defense, I was busy sucking up every last minute of my husband this past week. After his first year of Law School and recently being apart for so long... getting some actual time together this past week has been amazing! My anticipation for him to get home got the best of me, and I decided to put together a great warm welcome home for Trevor last week! I had a couple banners hung up around the house, made him some baked goods and left some notes around the house :)
We then decided to go get all you could eat Sushi, which was divine! We spent the afternoon at the water park, and since it was such a hot summer day, I decided I had to take him to the amazing shaved ice place that my sister introduced to me. Trevor loved it :) But who wouldn't? Ice cream and condensed cream on your shaved ice? Perfection I tell you.
It was a night of celebration :) celebrating being back together. He really does work so hard, and I am just so proud of him.
When you don't see your spouse for well over a month... you really do appreciate the little things. A great reminder to not take each other for granted. Be a little kinder, listen, and love more. Love you Trevor... welcome home :)
"Home is wherever I'm with you."

Also, loving the new banner, veeeery cute. :-)

ReplyDeletei love the banner
So happy that you guys got to spend time together! My husband and I hardly got to see each other during tax season, so I understand!
ReplyDeleteAlso, shaved ice with sweetened condensed milk is DEFINITELY the best combo ever.
i think your excuse is perfectly valid - we all need a break from the blog!
ReplyDeleteYou'll never regret spending more time with your husband if it only means getting behind in blogging! :)
ReplyDeleteMmm that shaved ice sounds INCREDIBLE!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're reunited again! I'm so spoiled to never have spent a night apart from my husband yet. (and shaved ice is my weakness. oh i love it.)
ReplyDeleteThis is sweet...so glad he's back with you :)
ReplyDeleteReunited and it feels so good! That's so sweet that you gave him a welcome home party. It looks like you both had a great week. I adore your new header!

ReplyDeleteI want that shaved ice!
ReplyDeleteI love this post. My husband too is in law school, and has left me for the summer to work so he can get a job after school and make a good life for us and all that great stuff... mostly it just kind of sucks that he is gone. I know he's working hard though for us and I should be more proud and less winey.
ReplyDeleteGlad you two made it! I still have 6 MORE weeks until mine comes home.
(Love the coming home party ideas, I might have to steal a few)
What a fun way to welcome back your husband. Being a part is so hard even though I feel proud of and grateful for what my husband does, you still miss each other. The shave ice looks like it's from the Hokulia, which is one of our favorites too. Yum!
ReplyDeleteAwwww...so sweet! :) And I need to come over for some of that food. Because between the baked goods and sushi, I'm drooling.
ReplyDeleteYay for being reunited and sharing all of those lovely moments together again! So happy for you! xo
