So it's been forever and a lot has changed!

Seems like it's been forever since I blogged here! A LOT has happened. DH returned from the sandbox, we enjoyed some of the scenery around upstate New York and tried to get reconnected as a family all the while getting ready for a PCS (permanent change of station) move and get some leave fit in to the whole picture to visit friends and family we (mostly DH) hadn't seen. In Nov. we cleared Ft. Drum and heading to Ohio for a visit w/ some of the in-laws staying through Thanksgiving. It was nice to see everyone we got a chance to see again. Granted we no where near got to see all the in-laws. Then we headed to VA to visit friends and (my) family there for a couple weeks. Wish we would have been able to visit with everyone.

On Dec. 11th we got up at 0400 and headed North to N.J. where DH took the van to port to be shipped and on Dec. 12th we flew out heading for our next duty station.... Schofield Barracks, HI! HI is BEAUTIFUL and we are loving it so far. The weather is PERFECT.... though I think I might miss the change of seasons in a couple years (maybe - maybe not).

Unfortunately we've already had to say our "see ya later, be safe's" with DH again. He's spending time in sand & sun in another part of the world. We are awaiting his return sometime this fall and praying we'll get blessed with R & R at some point.
