We had a "dining out" Saturday night with Parker's squadron. It's an event meant to get everyone together and boost squadron camaraderie, but for me, it's a chance to get all dressed up and see that handsome man in a uniform. I don't think I am alone in saying I love a man in a uniform. Am I right ladies?? Even in just his flight suit, I think Parker looks so handsome in the military swag. The event was pretty fun. It was a little long-winded for both of us, but we had a great time with each other and met some new friends. I told Parker my favorite part honestly was the 45 minute car ride there when we jammed out to some tunes and giggled like 5 year olds. The fact that this was my favorite part tells me I should probably branch out a little. Maybe next time.
Anyway, back to the best part of this little dining out. The man in the uniform:
I'm a big fan of the whites! I've always had a slight obsession with the navy & white color combo (
exhibit A: our wedding colors), so naturally I love this uniform. Here are a few other pictures from the evening.

Saturday night was a nice excuse get all gussied up and do something different. It makes up for the otherwise unproductive weekend we had (and I wouldn't have it any other way) :).

Looks like a great time! My boyfriend is Army ROTC, but even he can agree that Navy whites are pretty great.

The dress whites are my favorite!
Hands down the Navy has the best uniforms. (Should I admit that when I'm about to go visit the Air Force Academy? Hah) Looks like you had a great time getting all dolled up!
You looked gorgeous, girl!!! (And your guy didn't look half bad either) ;-)
You look beautiful lady! Both of you look great!

What a gorgeous/handsome couple! Hope you are enjoying your new home.
I am such a sucker for men in uniform, especially my man in his dress blues! It looks like you had a lot of fun and you two are an adorable couple! I'm a new follower and found your blog through the Military Spouse Blog Hop. Can't wait to read more!

I have to say I am partial to the dress blues...lol.. but your man looks good in the navy whites...well off the branches look good in their uniforms... something about it, i just dont know, lol.
I could do without the flight suit, personally. They just look like car mechanics. However, I'm a HUGE fan of our service dress and mess dress (and Navy whites, which is what I grew up seeing my granddaddy in). Mm... Uniforms...
Oh my gosh! My man's homecoming is really soon and I can't wait to see him in his dress whites! The CO's wife is trying to have a dine in before their change of command in early August, so we might get to be all fancy again soon!
These pictures are adorable!!! Love getting all dressed up!
Being born and raised in Pensacola, FL-- which is the home of the Naval Air Station.. I have always loved a man in uniform. The crazy thing is, I'm not one of those gals that swoon over them-- now I'm the one that thanks them for protecting them for my freedom and thanks their spouse for supporting them throughout the journey!
