Re-enlistment

So last week my husband re-enlisted in the Army.  We found out we are moving to Fort Benning Georgia....so crazy how it all happens at once....I guess that is the army life haha.  We won't be moving until next spring so we have plenty of time to continue enjoying our time in Germany.

The kids are out of school for summer so we are taking a little trip to Edelweiss lodge and resort in Garmisch Germany.  The Bavarian alps are your view from your room and its absolutely breath taking.

Anyways back to the re-enlistment....when he told me he was having the ceremony I really had no clue what to wear or what to have my kids wear...it was our first time going through it and I didn't have much time.  So I tried to research it and with no luck I just decided to wear a green dress I had bought online at american eagle over a year ago and the kids sort of matched with wearing blue and white and I put a cute red bow in my daughter's hair.  Obviously everyone has different styles but I would love to hear your ideas for what to wear to little ceremonies like that in the military.  It also gave me the idea to do a video of re-enlistment hair/makeup????  I will have to do it next week when we get back but It's just one of those things you don't want to be to over done but you definitely want to look nice and put together.  I don't know I thought it would be fun :)

I am sharing some pictures of my husband's special day...can I just say how amazing he is.  The Army life has been good for our family and I am still amazed at all the adventures that we have been able to have and memories made because my husband has been able to be in the Army and let us explore the world.  It truly is incredible and I couldn't be more proud of him.  I will just say for anyone who also hasn't done a re-enlistment yet ...It is over very quick so don't stress too much.  It was fun and I loved that our kiddos were able to be there and see their Dad do all of that.

Upcoming posts will be about summer hair ideas....simple makeup for summer....and some videos soon too.
