Adventure Hoes

 
Hey world! We are currently still in Florida LOVING life!! I did not expect to stay here this long but lucky for us since we dont have kids I can stay here during TDY and we can vacation when hes not working. And getting paid for it! So far we have been to Disney world which was AMAZING! pictures to come, been surfing almost every day on Jax Beach and its been amazing. The weather here is almost IDENTICAL to Hawaii. My guess since its so close to the equator humidity is perfect, just enough to keep my skin moist and healthy without having a blanket of humid heat over us. Im just loving it. I could live here any day! Its been hard to keep up with 365 because weve been out and about every day. Right now I have some time to blog because Im in the middle of getting our laundry done before we hit up our next adventure! BUSCH GARDENS! yesssss which is free for military and has the biggest roller coasters in Florida! I loveee it! I am an adrenaline/adventure junkie. My mom calls us Adventure hoes :)
 
TTFN!

Wild Flowers

Day Fifty. Wednesday June 30th.

Today my husband picked me a tiny bouquet of wild flowers and tied it together with ribbon :) I would much rather have wild flowers hand picked than store bought. Much more thoughtful :) Hes amazing.

Picture quality is ehh but o well :)

Doggie Beer

Day fifty one. Thursday July 1st.

Today I had a Job Interview at Charlotte Russe and this is what I found when I came home. There were two cases stacked up in the dining room ready to be packed for camping, Koa pushed them over and proceeded to try and rip the box open! lol. My husband gives him beer all the time because he loves it. I swear, like father like son.

"Dog is a man's best friend."


Carolina Beach

Day Fifty two. Friday July 2nd.

Today we headed to the beach to camp for America's Birthday weekend (4th of july) This was our view from our campsite. The ocean is about 20 yards away and absolutely beautiful. This is one place I will truly miss about the east coast. There is no where like it where you can camp on the sand.

"Hey baby lets have some fun. Take me to the beach and we'll bask in the big bright sun." -Summertime (newest song I wrote)



 4th of July weekend was AMAZING! I think it was the best 4th of July Ive ever had. Seriously. So friday we left for Carolina Beach, and I swear to you, It is one of the wonders of the United States. It is absolutely Breath Taking! For 20 Bucks a day (per vehicle) you can drive RIGHT out on the beach and pitch your tent, have a camp fire, swim in the nice cool refreshing ocean (its NOT too cold and NOT luke warm like bath water) The sand is nice and soft and feels amazing between your toes. I swear it is just like Southern California only better because the water is cleaner. If the water was just a tad more crystal clear blue, and you threw a few coconut trees on the beach I swear it would be just like you were in Hawaii. There arent many places you can camp on the beach, and it is located in this little town called Wilmington, North Carolina. THAT is one place I will truly miss about NC. And ONE place I truly love more than anywhere in Oregon.

Anyways, the beach is called Freeman Park, and the revenue they pull in JUST from campers on the beach is INSANE. On memorial day weekend they estimated a total profit of 1.2 Million Dollars. Basically, it is a great place for a family to camp, except on major weekends because it is just a HUGE party on the beach. It was packed but the beach is big enough for everyone, about 3 miles long. I guess last year they had some people set up a ginormous circus tent and had a DJ on the beach ahah. There wasnt one this year :( that woulda been fun! 
 
While we were at the beach we realized how truly beautiful Koa is, I am NOT exaggerating when I say we must have gotten a realistic estimate of 25-30 compliments on him. People just kept asking what breed he was and if we were looking to breed him, how old, what is his weight, name, compliments on how well he listens, and how good he is with kids etc he got SO much attention. He was loving it! It was so much to the point that I kept waking up in the night to make sure he was still tied up and on his bed next to us because we slept under the stars in the bed of the truck. (amazing) I guess its rare around these parts to have a full breed Pit Bull with papers. Thats koa for you tho, just like a child loving attention everywhere he goes haha! He even learned how to swim and loved it. Hes a dog fish I swear. I would be out in the ocean about 20 feet and he would swim all the way to me and swim circles around me, swim back to shore and then do it all over again hah. 

Another thing I realized when I was at the beach this weekend, was how fucked up society really is. Random, I know, But I got a few compliments from people saying "you are very beautiful young lady" or this one guy said "Your ole man has the best lookin' dog and the best lookin' woman on the beach this weekend" Or just randomly this woman walked up to me and asked me what nationality I was because she thought I was very pretty. Everytime I got a compliment I was caught completely off guard because I have it in my head (thanks to society) that I probably wont get compliments like that when I am not "dressed up" or if I dont have makeup on. Even tho I dont wear loads of makeup, and I dont even own foundation (just concealer for my under eyes) Society made me assume that. Its not that I dont think I am pretty without makeup or fancy clothes on, not at all, I just kept getting surprised because there I was on the beach, unshowered for 1 to 4 days, BEACH HAIR to say the least haha and just lounging around like a beach bum. I guess its not the place I would look for attention like that. More of a time to relax/party here and there/jam by the campfire. I dunno it just made me realize more about natural beauty. 

now THIS is an EXCITING PIECE OF NEWS so listen closely (if anyone is even reading :) 

I was jamming by the fire at the beach, and about 15 people ended up sitting in and listening. A woman named Kim in her 30's seemed to be particularly enveloped in my music so in between songs I would talk with her about my music and how I wrote alot of songs for my husband while he was deployed. I finally was all jammed out when I put my guitar down and had a beer with her. She asked me "Have you ever thought about trying to get your music on the show Army Wives? It would be the perfect fit because it is so real and alot of women could relate to it." 
I said yes and that I have thought about it before but I wouldnt know what to do to go about it. She says "You are in luck, a very close friend of mine that I have known since I was about 8 or 9 years old just so happens to be the Core Producer of the show Army Wives." 

My. Jaw. Dropped. I was like are you serious!!!?
She said "Yes I am not bullshitting, I have his number right here in my phone, Ill get in contact with him and see what I can do. At least make him listen to it" 

I have been texting her all week and Ill have more updates on that shortly!! :) Stay tuned it should be interesting. If nothing comes from it I would be totally okay with that, at least he listened :) If something does come from it, you know ill be very lucky and very happy!! This is probably going to be a bigger deal than MTV. They say "Its all about who you know in the music industry" I find that very true.

I believe everything happens for a reason, a random woman hears me play on the beach and happens to know the core producer of the show? Coincidence? I think not. Fate it is. 

For those of you who havent heard my music, check it out here VICTORIA PRINCE

Moving on, 




 Sparklers :)

Day Fifty three. Saturday July 3rd.

I opened the shutter so that I could capture this :) The beach was beautiful allllll day! So many happy beach bums, so many fireworks & campfires So many cool people that became new fans of my music, life is good. I ♥ the beach.

 Happy Birthday America

Day Fifty Four. Sunday July 4th.

I was so consumed by having a good time that I didnt take many good pictures of the fireworks. Either way, its cool :) Last 4th of July Matthew was still in Afghanistan. It almost brought tears to my eyes to know that he is home safely with me today. I am so grateful for our freedom and for everyone who fights for it. Hats off to the troops. I ♥ America. Amen.

Carolina Sunset.

Day Fifty Five. Monday July 5th.

Goodbye beach. Goodbye Atlantic ocean. Ill be back soon. Today we left the beach, but were looking forward to our bed and Air conditioning :) Although, we got some AWESOME tans becuase we had no way to escape the sun's beautiful rays the entire weekend. 100-104 degrees the whole time. Just the way I love it.

Truly amazing. Ironically, on saturday when we were lounging at the beach my husband and I were letting koa play with this little 2 year old girl who was wearing a cute american flag print bathingsuit haha she fed koa a pizza lunchable. Shes adorable. He looked at me a couple hours later out of nowhere and said "I have never wanted children so much in my entire life" It was so very cute. For now we love having eachother to ourselves and both of us love to travel. I want to see the world and he wants to see the better parts of the world :) (not afghanistan, pakistan etc) 

Speaking of which, Let me give you a clue where we are going this weekend!
 


 
You got it! WALT DISNEY WORLD RESORT! :) :) :) I am so excited im practically shitting my pants!! It will be an early celebration of our 2 year Anniversary!!! My husband is amazing I swear. We are going to stay at a 5 star resort that is In Disney World called "The Shades of Green Resort" That is specially closed off for military personnel and their families only. So for those of you who are military (all branches including national guard too) ITS SUPER CHEAP and super sweet! Just so you know :) 
We will be seeing Orlando and staying there for 3 days! Florida has the best Coach Outlets in the US in case none of you know that. They are super cheap! So Ill be making a pit stop there :) They also have the biggest one story mall in the US in Orlando. Lets just say I did my research. I have always wanted to get SLIMED like on Nickalodeon. But we already went to Universal Studios in January so I doubt we will go there again. Im just all around excited!! AHHHH 

PS. this is the longest blog EVER

I dont think this week could possibly get any better. I got a Job, Baby Gunner is here and I got to photograph his first moments, I am truly becoming more and more passionate about photography, We get to go to Florida which neither of us have been! (we plan to go to every state in America together before we die) So thats another off the list, we get to go to DISNEY WORLD which is absolutely amazing! We have thee best tans ever from the beach last weekend. We met so many cool people at the beach including someone who might have a lead on my music making it big on a TV series!  Omg life is sweet isn't it??
I have been on and off writing this blog and adding to it little by little all day haha. Running errands, packing, shopping for necessities etc. Its been a long day and tomorrow will be even longer but it will end in Orland :)

Goodnight world. <3

A shit ton of things

Okay so today I had a very very extremely productive day! whoop! These past couple days have been a little rough. I found out some not so fortunate news about upcoming military schedules. But today was a brand new day and I decided that I would go job hunting to keep me even busier! Juggling photography, music, housewifeism  (yes I made up that word) and party girl will have to make way for a Job. Haha The reason I didnt already have a job is because my husband would tell me all the time "I make enough money to support the both of us and all of our pastimes so why do you need a job?" Well I convinced him I needed something else to do and I might as well be out making the big bucks so last night I typed up a resume. And a damn good one at that! Its been a couple years since I updated my resume, the last time I used it was to get my job as a Child Care Provider. But Now it looks totally kick ass with LOADS of work experience and skills/abilites and I feel proud :). I went to bed last night thinking "Gosh job hunting is such a long process, I wish I could just get an interview tomorrow...." I woke up this morning with my game face on, and the job search began. I applied for a few jobs online and one of them was Buckle. LOVEEE that store. Best place to get quality denim. Theres nothing like a pair of jeans that fit perfectly. Im a bit of a fashonista haha (not really I just like the word and I like clothes) so I applied online and within MINUTES got an email from BuckleRecruitment.com saying "Please call us at this number to set up an interview, we would like to move forward with you." So I did a little dance, called the number and got an interview on day one of Job Hunting whoop! I only had an hour to get ready and get myself to the mall with a smile to meet my HOPEFULLY new boss for my interview. It went REALLY well, And I will know tomorrow if I got the job or not. She said it was very competitive position so *Fingers Crossed* I think I was more excited that my first day of job hunting turned out to be a total success because I got an interview but either way I still have some other leads. I also applied to be a beauty consultant and work in the cosmetics department of Macys :).  Tomorrow Im applying for a teacher position at KidnerCare, I fit all of the qualifications and have been encouraged to apply so any one of those jobs will do. This will be an adventure either way. And theres nothing like earning your own paycheck!


I have had like five people request that I post up a good picture of my hair down since a couple blogs ago I shared my bad haircut picture so here it is :)


 This picture was taken last weekend from the iphone but I just didn't get around to uploading and posting it till now.  It doesnt look bad anymore, the first couple of days were rough, I think it just wasnt used to being so light because it used to be so long so I had sort of a wolly bully look. I pulled it off though :)

 Now for your favorite section of my blog, 365........



 These Boots are Made for Walkin

Day Forty Five. Friday June 25th.

I ♥ these Durango boots! I always love the stitching and how comfy they are. When I was little my brother and I would literally wear cowboy boots with EVERYTHING. We lived in Hawaii and we would wear bathing suits with cowboy boots haha. I guess I never grew out of it because I love to wear my boots still. :)  This picture makes me sing,

"These boots are made for walkin, and thats just what theyll do, one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you"


 Gardening

Day Forty Six. Saturday June 26th.

We have TONS of tomatoes!! Yay!! This is going to save us alot of money by growing our own. We eat at least 2 tomatoes a piece per day.

"Lifes a Garden. So Dig it!"

 Dress Up

Day Forty Seven. Sunday June 27th.

Today Koa had kind of a rough day. So we bought him the hugest bone we could find! And we played dress up haha. Not really, I just put a mini hair clip on his ear because little Emiree left it over here :)

"The More you dress up, the more fun you'll have" -Lady Gaga

Jiminy Cricket

Day Forty Eight. Monday June 28th.

I was eating cereal this morning when I almost choked because I spotted this little guy on my plant on my KITCHEN TABLE! haha How he got there, I have no clue.

"When you wish upon a star your dreammss comeee trueee" - Jiminy Cricket, Pinocchio



Job Hunting

Day Forty Nine. Tuesday June 29th.

Today I started my job search, and had an interview on the same day I started! whoooO! :) I also got my rad business cards in. Very productive day. So productive I almost forgot about 365. This pic is probably my least favorite so far but it reflects my day so it shall remain.

"Money dont grow on trees child, get up off that thang and get a J.O.B!" -my mom. ahah Weather I need a job or not is irrelevant to that woman, shes got work ethic like you wouldn't believe. Ive always had to work for everything I had until my husband came along and spoiled me haha.

I just LOVE the idea that I will be able to look back on this entire year in photographs and Know exactly what I did on that day. I like to take pictures of the little things in life, the things that make me smile or brighten my day.

Ahhh its nice to relax after running around all day, I came home and watched a movie with my husband called "Hot Tub Time Machine" That movie is hilarious! I highly recommend it :) And I made myself a giant delish milkshake with Icecream, a butterfinger, milk, banana, and peanut butter yummmm. Speaking of candy, we always have a candy bowl at our house lol. Again acting like kids, but the other day we left the house to run some errands and we got back and this is what we found,



 hahah. Yes we have a puppy, that gets into the candy bowl, on TOP of the table!! he also gets things down from the counters lol.

And the last thing I would like to share is this beautiful flier I made for Island Girl Photography


 Whoop :) the last productive thing I did today, along with this blog :) Thats all for now.

Bye! :)

Bust a move!

 Saturday Morning :) I love you! So, this morning my husband wakes me up with a smile and snuggles. He goes out into the living room and comes back and sits on our bed next to me with a shit eating grin on his face. I am on the phone with my mom talking about random garb and in mid laugh a cricket jumps on my FACE! Of course I jump up screaming frantically in nothing but my underwear only to find out my husband played a little prank on me. It was hilarious hahah! We are like kids I swear because we are always pranking eachother. Were both good sports tho. So I am planning my next ambush muahahah.

So last night, we had a couple of friends over and we played a board game and had some drinks. BTW for you partiers out there. My specialty drink =





Simply Lemonade+ Grey Goose Le Citron + a splash of grenadine. Make it look fancy with a slice of lemon in it and a toothpick with raspberries or cherries. Be sure to chill your martini glass, dip the rim in water and then in sugar for a nice sweet taste. Wahlah DELICIOUS! I swear to you, you will not taste the liquor if you mix 1 part vodka 2 parts lemonade and just enough grenadine to make it pink. This is my ultimate fave. So anyway we got this boardgame from barns and noble called Quelf awhile ago. We like to have game night at our house :) I told you were kids haha



 This game has a slogan "Random has a whole new name" And its totally true! Imagine my husband and I and 6 of our friends sitting around getting drunk and a 6'2" Army guy draws a card that says "Go find a tube of bright red lipstick, apply a healthy layer, and wear it for the remainder of the game. hahah! this really happened and it was really hilarious. I once had to wrap myself in wrapping paper and dance like a ballerina, hammerd. I highly recommend this game, but you have to be really outgoing or at least have alot of liquid courage to play it. Don't be shy, its way too fun to be outgoing.

So after we finished the game we were feelin a little crazy so we busted out the Wii. And let me tell you, if any of you have a wii out there you NEED to get the game "Just Dance" I was bustin a move last night lol. And I swear, I have a wii fit but this game is a much better Cardio workout. I mean just look at this



Haha! These ladies have got some MOVES! Its so much fun, we have 4 controllers so four of us were busting out and its hilarious to get my husband or any male dancing his ass off to some spice girls or ring my bell. haha! All in all, it was a fun night and I am sore today. I need to get us on film doing that.

Anyways back to my saturday, time for new adventures! Ciao!

RIP MJ

 Hello Friday! Nice to see you again finally! ha. Anywayyyy Wednesday afternoon we went over to one of my husband's classmates house. They live right on Carolina Lake! We took the boat out and went wake boarding, tubing, and drank a cooler of beer. It was so much fun! Im still so sore tho haha. 
We look dorky in this one but thats just us! ha
This was his second time wakeboarding ever! I swear hes good at everything.

 So much fun!

 :) This party was put together in celebration of them passing the Language School! They all learned to speak Indonesian fluently in 4 months. Insane! I dont know how they did it! Especially my husband since he already had to go through french language school and he took spanish in highschool. Way too confusing but the good thing is, when we travel to Europe he can speak french and when we travel to Bali he can speak indonesian! Our next stop is Australia next summer tho. Lots of things to do before kids! So anyway I took their class pictures.

Their Indonesian teacher is hilarious and so much fun! We took a serious class picture but I think this one is the best haha. She said she was going to hang this on her wall in her office. 

After it got too dark to be out on the lake we went back to the lake house and ate more BBQ, jammed, and drank yummy drinks. 
 Jammin


Day Forty Three. Wednesday June 23rd.

Spidey


Day Forty Four. Thursday June 24th.


Today we are tired and sore from tubing and wake boarding. So we vegged out and watched movies. This guy hangs out on our porch and eats bugs for us. He is HUGE! But he reminds me of spiderman and he kills bugs so he can stay as long as he is outside!

Right now I am enjoying the VH1 Micheal Jackson Music Video Marathon! RIP MJ! You truely were the king of pop. Say what you will about him as a man. But his music has changed the world of pop forever. Not only that but his dancing, his music videos (thriller was the very first music video ever) He pretty much invented the idea of music videos. But other than that, he seriously has inspired so many artists and in the world of music (where I live) that is a huge deal. I just want to share this video because I really feel that it speaks for itself. 







When the Haiti Earthquake devistated the world. All of these artists came together with the inspiration from MJ and his song to create an organization that raised Millions of dollars to help the people of Haiti. I just think this is beautiful. I really believe that no matter what happens, and how many differences we face from race to race and country to culture, that music can bring people together. Everyone from Celine Dion to Lil Wayne to Smokey Robinson is in this music video and its just amazing! If you watch it til the end that is my favorite part. Rest In Peace MJ. You are even inspirational after you are gone <3

Some say he was a "freak" for turning white. But what alot of people dont know, or choose not to know, is that he had a skin disease that caused him to become white. Literally.  Vitiligo, a disorder in which pigment-making cells are destroyed. White patches appear on different parts of the body, tissues in the mouth and nose, and the retina.There is no cause. There is no cure, and it's very random,Thomas says. As many as 65 million people worldwide have the disorder, including up to 2 million in the United States. This is what he would have looked like if he didnt get tissues therapy.

Sad right? Who would want to look like that. I think Id rather turn white also. Just goes to show how cruel people can be. If anything, He taught the world a lesson, follow your dreams, no matter what people think or how many people want to bring you down. Thats exactly what I will do :)

And Finally, I would like to share this AMAZING painting done by Ashly Wissler, an amazing artist that I went to highschool with. You can check out more of her artwork HERE
Notice the tape on his fingers, covering the patchyness. Thats where the glove came from.


Lastly, I would like to welcome my new readers! I cant believe there are 29 of you :) you make me wanna dance! And blog more!Happy Friday everyone!!

Time to get up and crank up some MJ, Clean the house, water and weed the garden, take koa for a run, & stop by the grocery store and post office. Then it will officially be my weekend. TTFN!

Beauty Blog

 Good Morning Bloggers :) 

Today I woke up at 6:00 am to a nice fresh pile of dog shit. Whoo! I tell you what, I would much rather be changing a diaper than scrubbing my carpets! Why cant dogs wear diapers?? UGH I think Koa is having a relapse because he was completely housebroken until like last week. It could also be because he is like the neighborhood puppy. The neighbor kids come over and play with him all the time. And since we dont have a fence he kind of just roams around and hangs out with everyone while they are BBQing. He even goes and scratches on our friends door down the street because they watched him while we were in California. The only bad thing about that is we don't know what the neighbors feed him while hes visiting and hanging out with them so it sucks when he has an upset stomach and we don't know what it is from. Oh well.... Anyway I scrubbed the carpets and walked into the livingroom, sure enough spongebob is dead on the floor and his guts are ALL OVER the house. Surprisingly, I wasnt even in a bad mood. It was kind of those moments where you just laugh it off like OMG my puppy is in terrible twos right now! So I packed my husband some breakfast to eat after Combatives and PT and kissed him goodbye for work and have been up since. 

I am currently enjoying my reading list of the wonderful bloggers I follow :) And I was inspired to write my first mini beauty blog about my most favorite lip cosmetic. 


 This Lip gloss is from Bath and Body Works. There are hundreds of flavors and tints for just $7 a piece! or 2 for $15. I SWEAR by these lip glosses because 
1. Not only do they look good but they FEEL good with just the right amount of mint and tingle that you need to make your lips feel refreshed.
2. My husband doesnt complain when I kiss him because it isnt sticky at all!
3. It is also made to freshen breath & there is also coconut oil and a few other 100% natural substances like REAL mint in them.
4. Maximum coverage, I used to use "Softlips" but that little thing is so dang small and I have got some big lips that need coverage so I find these to be the perfect fit. 
5. It tastes good :) Theres nothing worse than lipgloss that tastes like ass. Or some sorry excuse for pineapple. Burts Bees is a good chapstick and I like it for its natural qualities but it tastes too ass-ish to me.

I usually use the one on the far right because its glossy but it has the perfect amount of tint to give my lips a little color.

So thats that! :) I am obsessed with Bath and Body Works. Here are a couple more of my favorite things there. 

The BBW Oil Warmer. I dont know about you but I dedicate a small part of my day to making my house smell wonderful. I have used everything from incense to fabreeze but nothing works better than this bad boy right here.  My Bestie Brittany got this for me for my birthday and I have used it almost every day since! You can buy a variety of little oil scents, I currently have Japanese Cherry Blossom and Margaritaville. Both wonderful! And all it takes are little refillable T-Lite candles. This thing also literally smokes when it is burning so you can just see the good smells filling up your house. We have a rather large yet cozy 3 bedroom home. And I seriously only need ONE to make the whole house smell good. :) 

And lastly, Bath salts and Sensual Bubble Bath! With aroma therapy. My skin feels softer than butter after a nice hot bath. You know how babies absorb scents like their whole body just smells wonderful with that fresh clean baby smell? Dont you wish your skin was that soft? Well thats how I feel after using this. Haha I feel like a commercial but I had to share my love for these things. I love it!



 This is my escape.

I also have a question for you readers out there. Does this font make it a pain to read my blog? Or is it okay? Just wondering :) Let me know! 

Time for Yoga! Have a beautiful day!
