Family fun in the Sip



Our Sweet Nephews at the Terry Train Depot

We finally made it home on Saturday, David got up at 4am Georgia time and packed the Jeep down! He comes in and wakes me up by turning the lights on and saying babe get up the Jeep is on, we got to go!! Needless to say I got up pretty quickly lol, knowing that we were going to be in the Sip in 6 hours i was SO excited! We got in the Jeep and headed HOME!! it was absolutely wonderful! 6 hour drives are no comparison to the drive across country that we will be doing on the 3rd of January to California. David is driving a 20 foot truck with his Jeep hooked to the back and me driving the Altima behind him, this will be interesting that's for sure haha!! Sunday we went to Terry Baptist Church with Davids mother, its such a sweet church. The picture above is from that afternoon, Davids sweet sister Ashley and her boys came down to Terry to see the toy train set up at the Depot. They are such polite boys! Going to be such a catch when they get older:) David loves when he gets to see them, of course I do too, family is so precious to us!

First Blog!

Ok ok so we will be leaving early in the AM to head to Terry and Crystal Springs, Mississippi for Christmas FINALLY!!!!! We are so excited words can not even describe it! Today we were super busy, David had to go to 6 briefs before he could get go ahead to leave. I was packing myself and Bentley Boo of course I pack WAY too much but we wont talk about that. When he got out of the brief the plan was to leave for Mississippi straight away, but they ended up telling him that he had to wait till tomorrow. Such a bummer seeing as how we were all packed and ready, Bentley had already taken his baby benadryl to help with the drive and everything. No worries though, my husband is the best. He swooped me up and we went and got some bbq and did a bit of christmas shopping for Bentley Boo and picked out our new washer and dryer. So excited to get to California and actually get the washer and dryer and get into our new house! Thats right, I said California, for those of you who do not know the Army is sending us to Ft. Irwin for 12-18 months then we get to choose duty station of choice! We definatly chose HAWAII!! We are so excited about starting this new chapter in our lives! It is such a blessing to see what God has planned for us!
Kansas was just not for us, for a number of reasons.
1. We are from Mississippi okay..
2. Its VERY far away from home.
3. I have never seen real snow, neither has Bentley.
4. Well its just super cold!
The reasons that California is perfect.
1. Its WARM!!!!
2. Just a Southwest Flight away from home.
3. 3 hours from Los Angeles
4. 3 hours from Vegas.
God has blessed us in so many ways with family, friends, and of course our wonderful doggie Bentley Boo Hester:)
