In The Beginning

I have been wanting to start a blog since before John even left for basic training.  Well now that it's 3 months later and he's almost done, I figure now is a good time to start.  I had planned on using this to keep everyone updated on John's progress, how he was doing, post pictures, talk about my letters, etc.  As soon as John left, people at my job started leaving left and right, so I haven't had time to sit down and do anything because between work and army stuff, I'm always doing something.


On a happy note, It's now officially one month until graduation.   I will be going down to Georgia again, and getting to see John, all of his friends, and all my army friends!  I can't wait! We were counting down the days before I even left for home last weekend.  John's graduation will be followed up by a short trip home and moving our stuff across the country.  So far, still looks like Texas!

Also, here are a few pictures from last weekends trip to Georgia.  John received a  36 hour pass and my butt was on the first flight of the morning to Atlanta!  We had an awesome 36 hours together.  Didn't do anything special.  John just wanted to relax and finally eat junk food again, so we pretty much spent our time scarfing down food and watching TV in the hotel room.  I know, we're very exciting.

Dropping John back off at his barracks.  Worst thing ever.
 But as of today...it's only 31 more days until he's done :o)

I'm so excited!  I can't wait to have my own kitchen!
