6 MORE WEEKS!

I can't believe it is actually happening...Before you know it, this will be all over. The boys go back to school next week so Sept. should fly bye. It must be exciting for you too. Just knowing that you will be out of there soon must help everyone with morale.Just think hun, pretty soon you will have a stocked fridge at your disposal at anytime...I promise to have enough budlight waiting for you to last at least a month!I had alot of fun this weekend...Figured I would put up a picture for those that are curious what I look like. I am the one in red and my favorite sister in law is with me! Hopefully the weather will stay nice so you can check out my tan lines when you get home!!!!Love you more than anything...the countdown continues

2 more months and your out of Iraq!

Part of me is so excited and part of me is a little afraid. I am scared that we will overwhelm you. I am scared that you won't be able to handle all the attention. You have basically lived in a tin can for the past year isolated from any love and security. We have done our best to keep on going but there has never been a day when you were not spoken about. We have been waiting a long time for you and I just hope you can handle us when you get home. I have this feeling of insecurity for the first time in our marriage. I don't know why but it is very strange. I assume it is just the home stretch anxieties but sometimes I just can't shake it. I just hope that if we are over bearing you will let us know. We need to respect your need for freedom and space and I will work on that with the kids...I just hope I can follow the same rules!
We love you and we miss you so much. Before long you will be back home where you belong...
I thought I would put a picture up of the kids. They were so proud to wear these that day and are so dissappointed that they have outgrown them.
Stay safe hunny...we are almost there.
