Promotion orders ~ Congratulations Babe

I am so proud of my hubby for making SFC/E7. (he pins on tomorrow) He works hard and is VERY good at his job. I however have no idea how to be an E7's wife. I am not the kind to kiss up to somebody to make them feel important. I do not believe in being "politically correct". I am not the kind to host huge parties for people I don't know and going to a "ball" is not my idea of fun. I will however back our soldiers and be available to ALL military and their spouses when they need me as I do now. I do take pride in my hubby and his job. I will take my new "post" with honor and pray God shows me the way. I can not however guarantee the outcome.

Congratulations also to SSgt Vaz and family on your promotion!!
Love you guys

Sara @ Life With the Two said...: Thanks! So cool our hubbys are getting promoted "together". You and I deserve it. We should party!; Saturday, May 31, 2008
Party of 5 said...: Congrats David and Stacy!

You'll make an awesome E7's wife. Why? Cause the "younger" ones won't be intimidated by you and will come to you for help. Those "fake" E7 wifes are not approachable. David is lucky to have a real woman as his life partner.

HooRah! (a throwback to my Army days...LOL)

Oh and yes congrats to Paul and Sara as well. Sara he NEVER would of done it without you - this I know is true.; Saturday, May 31, 2008

About me

I am just your average everyday American girl. My name is Stacy ~ (Renee to some). I am a 35 year old stay at home mom. I am happily married to the love of my life ~David~ for 16 years now.(love ya babe). God has blessed us with 6 awesome children. Courtney, Dakota, Arianna, Alyssa, Krista, And our little angel baby Joe-Joe ~ WE LOVE AND MISS YOU JOSEPH! We have 4 dogs who are also all brothers and sisters (2 that are a pom~chi mix and 2 chihuahuas), 2 huge fluffy cats (who are the cutest) a turtle, and lots of fish (I think that's it).My husband is a SFC in the Army so we move around a lot. We have lived in IL, KS, GA, Germany, CO and now in TN/KY. This has brought our family closer together and we all have friends in many different states and Countries. This last move has brought us closer to home and I love being close to our families again. I love spending time with my hubby and the kids doing just about anything from baking to skateboarding to road trips to curling up on the couch watching a good movie with good popcorn or pizza. I love cooking, reading, biking, hiking, traveling, gardening (though not good at it), puzzles, good movies, cards with good friends, bbq's, swimming, ball games in the back yard, the rain on my face, the sound of thunder, fireworks on the lake, butterflies, wild flowers, spring and fall, snowball fights, water fights, girls night out, family night in, fishing, mud pies, the sound of children laughing and/or discovering new things, trying new things, long talks on the phone, late night dinner dates with hubby, a good cup of coffee with hubby watching the sunrise and I'm sure there's lots more. I have the GREATEST family and friends in the world. When this family was going through hell not one of them blinked. They were all right there through the whole thing. My girlfriends are like sisters and my sister is like a girlfriend. I can tell them anything and know that I will get honesty without judgment. I love you all.

A Mother's Story

A woman once fretted over the usefulness of her life.
She feared she was wasting her potential being a devoted wife and mother.
She wondered if the time she invested in her husband and children would make a difference.
At times she got discouraged because so much of what she did seemed to go unnoticed.
"Is it worth it? " She oftened wondered. "Is there something better I could be doing with my time? "
It was during these moments of questioning that she heard the still, small voice of her heavenly Father speak to her heart.
You are a wife and mother because that is what I have called you to be.
Much of what you do is hidden from the public eye.
But I notice.
Most of what you give is done without remuneration.
But I am your reward.
Your husband cannot be the man I have called him to be without your support. Your influence upon him is greater than you think and more powerful than you will ever know.
I bless him through your service and honor him through your love.
Your children are precious to me. Even more precious than they are to you.
I have entrusted them to your care to raise them for me. What you invest in them is an offering to me.
You may never be in the public spotlight, but your obedience shines as bright as a bright light before me.
Continue On.
Remember you are my servant.
Do all to please me.
Colossians 3:23,24

What Condiment Are You?

You Are Mustard

Your personality is strong and distinctive. You are beyond quirky.
You can stand alone in the world well. You are a strong individual.
You sometimes work well with others, as long as there aren't any other strong personalities involved.

Your taste in food tends to be simple yet high quality.
You can really get into a perfectly prepared sandwich or simple fresh salad.
You get along best with ketchup and barbeque sauce personalities. Get you with a salsa personality, and things might become downright nasty!
