Time to play dress up again.

Halloween is fast approaching and its time to think costumes! (By the way, that cute little guy above is my brother all dressed up for Halloween a few years ago.) I think this holiday is so fun and love that it gives everyone an excuse to dress up in some ridiculous outfit.

I love Halloween parties and I love seeing all the little trick-or-treaters dressed up as princesses and superheros. I would love to dress up my "kids" (Bailey & Badger) in something funny but I'm not sure that they would go for it. This is my favorite doggie costume I've found so far...

I'm not sure what Jake and I will be this year. We tend to procrastinate on our costumes until a day or two before Halloween. Who knows, maybe this year we will actually put some real effort into it.

What is your favorite Halloween costume idea?

A few years ago, Jake and I dressed up as G.I. Joe and Barbie G.I. Joe (Ha!) and last year we dressed up as a Greek god and goddess. I'll let you know what we decide this year but in the meantime I dug up a few pictures from these past Halloweens for you all to enjoy...

Blog Timeline

Here's a little guide to how my life has evolved since this blog first started back in 2008. Looking back now, I've gone through some very distinct and significant chapters. The archives at the bottom follow along accordingly :)

December 2008-July 2010:
Graduating from college, experiencing life as newlyweds, moving to the far-away land of Mississippi, enduring the hectic lifestyle of Air Force pilot training, discovering my passion for web design, and transitioning into life as a real "grown-up".

August 2010- December 2010:
Moving back in with my parents in California while Jake was away at training in Oklahoma, living in a complete state of "limbo", growing my newly launched web design business, and loving life back on the best coast - oops! - I mean west coast ;)

January 2011- March 2012:
Discovering what it's like to have life-altering medical issues, struggling through tragic loss, physical pain, emotional pain, never-ending doctor's appointments and medical tests, all while trying to start our new life at Travis AFB... Learning to trust God even in the darkest times and constantly praying for healing.

April 2012- Present Day:
Experiencing healing from my physical pain, enjoying a career that I absolutely love, making the most wonderful friends here at Travis, and striving to live every single day to the FULLEST. God is so good! John 10:10 - Read it :)
