Hello everybody I'm back, can't tell you for how long but I will give it a good try to work on both of my spaces.

Just a quick update I'm back at work no not Wal-mart but with Image Pro and I love it.

Kids are now in 10th and 6th Grade and doing good, Brad is still working for the Sheriffs office as a Drug court tracker

and he realy likes it a lot, plus he still does the National Guard so busy busy Guy.

Been reading up on some of your Blogs and it is good to see that everybody is doing good, this year went by so fast.

We did get the Garage done love it, don't no how we ever did with out one LOL. Well it is time for me to get ready for Bed.

if I don't talk to any of you before Christmas, I wish you and your Familys a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OOOH wow it has been a long time sense I put something down in here, but we are just so busy.

Brad is working a lot and keeping him self busy with his new Band he joined Mason Jar of Jam's

if they are ever up your way you Guys need to go and check them out they are realy good.

Plus we are working on getting a garage add on to our House which turned out to be a little harder

then we thought ( trying to find a honest Contracter ).

We don't have the Cat no more Ozzy had to many Issues with him so I had to give him back :( .

I've been working on my Garden, pulling out them nasty weeds and riping out the old fence so we 

can put a new one in so the Dogs don't eat my veggies this year LOL (no more Cucumbers for them).

The Kids are doing great Paul just went with his class over to the middle School to pick some classes

for next year and Julian had to get his new schedule done boy I can't belive I have a kid in High School

and one going to Midddle School wow wow wow time sure flyes.

Paul will be taking a few honor classes just to keep him busy he is to smart for his own good sometimes,

so his teacher and I think that would maybe do the trick. But if it works and he can keep up with it he can finish

High School with a Bachler or a Societ Degree and maybe he will get a few Scholarships so that woud be just great.

Julian is going to take a summer Job, he realy has his mind made up on making some money this summer which all

I can say good for him, he has been doing a few Babysitting jobs on the weekends for our friends the kids love him

and he is so good at it.

So as you all can see everything is well, Spring is here and Easter is just right around the corner so with that I wich you all

A HAPPY EASTER and you all be good .

 

 

 

 

I just want to wish everybody a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

 

But for the most I want to wish you all a Happy Halloween, hope you Guys get  a lot of Candy. LOL

 

 

 

We are back home, as you can see from the pictures everybody had a great time even the Dogs.

Our trip started of a bit rocky and hot, Paul got car sick just before Vegas so we had to stop a couple of times for that than we got stuck in traffic right after Baker for 2 hr. for a accident the car temp. was up to 109 the poor dogs,  we were letting them out of the car but the sand and street were to hot for them to stand on.As you can see from the picture that one Guy was trying to turn around what a dork he got stuck so bad everybody started to laugh at him and than went to see if they could get him out but no luck.

The Boys realy like the pool at there  Aunt Sandy's house, Legoland was ok but it is deffently for small kids but we still had a good time I made them right the Fair Book  because it had cool mist and I was so hot so they were sitting in them little leafs it was to funny LOL but I got to cool of. When we went to the Padres game we made a stop at there store and Julian and I got an autograph form there Pitcher by the way Girls he really liked the Shirt 

( The Rosie one ) I had it on that day.

Over all it was a great Trip but we were all happy to be back home. 

Oh I forgot the picture of the Dolphines is my new Tattoo we were driving down the Beach and I figured what the hell lets get one it is still in the healing process but the swelling is gone know I just want to scratch my self to death LOL but I think it turned out really good.

I better stop writing because more stuff keeps coming up of things we did, so enjoy the pictures.

I must say the last 6 day's have been great , I'm just hanging out with Brad we did go and get me my new Living room set I wanted .

We are still going to California on Thursday the Kids can't wait.

I really don't know what to say besides that it is so great to have him home.

Update on California will follow as soon as we get back.

 

 

 

As of today the first Group of the 2-222 FA is flying into Cedar, and we are all very exceited.

Me and my friend Kari Ann are going to be there to great them and to let them know how proud we are of them.

The rest of the Guys should be here with in the next week, lookes like some Bravo people are going to be coming with the Alpha Guys I sure hope they can make it work for all of them too be here by Thursday crossing my Fingers for all you Bravo wifes and of  course for your Husbands.HHB should be her by Wendsday.

Right know Brad and his troop are still in Mississippi and it sounds like they are having a good old time they rented some  Cars so they can get in too Town for Dinners and Movies and of course we can't forget the Mall.

I'm glad they get to have some fun after this 18 month deployment.

We are still planing on going to California for a vacation when he gets home, so I can't wait for that I'm so ready to relax and sit next to my Husband and take a deep breath and knowing it is over and we made it YIPPIE. 

So here we go don't know really what to say, are Husbands are almost home and every body is sitting on pins and needles.

I was doing so good with getting the House ready , but after talking to Brad on the Phone this morning and he telling me that it lookes like they are going to be in Kuwait till the 13th or 14th maybe, kind of bumbed me out.

Have a empty feeling today.

But over all this deployment was not as bad as I thought I made a bunch of great new friends( you all ROCK )

and that is what I'm thankfull for that I was not alone in this.

I think our marriage got even stronger than before, we talked more about things and that I think is realy good. 

We all did a lot of growing up in the last 18 month even are children, witch by the way Paul and Julian can't wait for him to get here, and they are going to be amazed by most of the Kids some of them did a lot of growing and are no more baby's and they will have to do some ajusting but I'm sure that will go just fine.

It is hard to but this stuff in to words because I feel so much happyness and sadness is put in a big bowl and just beeing mixed up.( Like if you are pregnant again some of you know LOL )your emotions are just going BONKERS right know.

We are a bunch of strong and willing women to get the jop done, and so a big applause to us all.

I think all is going to work out great with are Husbands coming home and beeing back in are lives, just go out on a date with him ones a week and get to know each other again, that is what Brad and I are going to do and I'am looking forward to it.( I feel like I'm 16 again LOL ) 

Well my Life and that of my Family will go on and I know that we will be fine and that we have a long journey a head of us but it will be good.

Hope all of this made some  kind of sens.

Will see you all in Cedar hopefully.    

 

As you can see from the pictures that I have been pretty busy today, so busy in fact that I forgot  all about Danielle and Megan sorry again Girls.

But I was just so into getting these weeds pulled out and the grass cut that I lost track of time .

One of Brad's friends ( Jeff great guy ) came over and we loded up his truck with a bunch of junk for the Dump,

witch was a big help because I got so much more stuff cleaned up that way, no more nasty Spider hiding in it and the bugs ehhhhhhh.I HATE BUGS......

After I took a nice shower to cool of my back I sat down to relax just for a few minutes before I have to fix dinner. My Laundry is still waiting to be washed did forget about them too so lookes more like it that I will do that tonight ahhhhh.

I'm just trying to get everything ready for wenn Brad gets home so we can spend more time together I sure don't want to be outside pulling weeds when I have the chance of hugging my Hubby. 

Alright anuff with that hope you all got your weeds under controll LOL.

 

 

 

 

 

Alright so I made it up to Richfield with Kari Ann it was great Chaplain Miller came and spoke and gave some

good pointers on what our soldiers be like when they come back, and between him and the Workshop I think we are going to be Ok.If you look at the pictures you can see Kari Ann playing with her food, she was making little stick people out of her left over food LOL sorry had to put it in her every body on the table was watching her it was funny . 

The dinner was realy good and all of the wife's were great and a lot of fun to be with,lets see what did we have we had mash Potatoes with Rost a couple of diffrent Salates and some Chocolates on the end  Yummy.

This it to funny as I was driving down Town on Main Street I had to stop at a light as we are waiting for it to turn

Green  Paul says : you know what Mom I said what, he says when I get Married I want You and Dad to get me some Silver and Dinnerwear as a Wedding gift because that is what I will need the most.

I almost died laughing and asked him why he said that  and he goes I was just thinking about that , now why need a 10 year old to think about what he wants for his Wedding I think he has a hole lot of time to worrie about something like that. But I just had to shares this one with all of you because it just cracked me up.
