What We Decided...

We have finally came to a decision about what we are going to do about our leave enroute home. We fly out on the 10th to BWI, then we are going to rent a car and drive home from there. Yeah, I know it's a long way but it will be fun. There was too much stress with this heat embargo and trying to get Max(outr dog) on a flight without the temperature going over 75 degrees. That is almost impossible in the states during the summer months. Plus the fact that we had to find a non-stop flight the same times as Max so we would be able to pick him up on time. So many rules just to fly a dog. Renting a car and driving makes it much less stressful and it will be an adventure for us. I am sure Max will love hanging his head out the window all the way home. heheheh!!! We did buy us a GPS today so we wouldn't get lost along the way. I am very excited seeing my family and Harry seeing his family. We haven't all been together is so long.

On another note, we are currently staying with friends until the 5th when we go on base to the hotel there. We are gonna turn our house keys in this Monday and get the landlady to do a final walk thru. After that, we are rent free for a while. Living out of a suitcase sucks though. Plus, I over packed us big time so we are gonna have to mail stuff back. Harry has only one suitcase to my three. What can I say, I am a woman...I need lots of stuff. hehe. Well, I think that is pretty much all I have for you guys now.

a little update...

I finally have the hang of how this blog thing works so get ready for millions of posts. Okay, now for the updates..This week we are going to be really busy and not able to be online much. Thursday TMO comes to pick up all our stuff so we got to get packing last minute things and cleaning..tons of cleaning! Friday, unaccompanied comes to get our clothes and dishes..the stuff we will need right away when we get to California. After all that, we have to clean the house and turn over the keys to the landlady. We will be in a hotel from then until Sept 10th when we fly out. We don't have any going away parties or get togethers planned so we will just play it by ear. I don't want anything big anyhow. I am so excited and can't believe this is really happening!!

On another note, Congrats to my hubby for making SSgt on the 1st try. Love you boo!

Family Blog

So, I decided to start a blog to keep our family and friends updated on whats going on in our life. It's much easier to do this blog than to try and keep both MySpace and Facebook updated all the time. Plus I know some of you don't have a MySpace or Facebook. I am really excited about this and hope you all enjoy it as well.
