Summer has begun.

and can I just say when does school start again?? It has been a rough start but I have high hopes it will get better, it HAS too. We don't have much planned for the summer, just a short trip to VA and enjoying time together as a family. I have jumped right in to the community here and learning the ropes. I cannot believe how much the Army has changed in 2 years, at least its for the better!! so here's to hoping I survive the summer.......

Home is where the Army sends us...

We have made it to Fort Campbell and I love it! We had a pretty easy transition and the kids have already made great friends here. I jumped right in to the community and have started getting to know the ropes here. We have a nice house on post but recently found out we will be moving probably in the next year.... ugh such is the life of a Military family. We are staying here just moving to a new housing area.

New Ink

after 9 years it was finally my turn to get some new ink! I got to meet the famous Shane from Animated Canvas, he has done a lot of work on DH. He was awesome!! I got 2 tattoos last night, first an owl on my lower right leg, and 2nd Dog Tags on my right shoulder. They both turned out amazing and I couldn't be happier!

RIP Lower Mills

This weekend our very good friends and neighbors moved to their new house up the road. And now I'm all alone on our "street" over the past year people have moved out and the houses all remained empty. They will be tearing them down this year. We are the last to move on our "block". So I am all alone. I'm sad about this. Even though we are moving in 3 weeks to our new home it's still sad. Oh well, this too shall pass. RIP LMFSC ;)

farewell Drill Sergant.

Well the hubby took off his Drill Sergeant Hat, and donned his Berret. It was weird at first since I've got so used to the Brown Round, he's back to the little black Barret. HEHEH. But I am so proud of him! It's been a loooong 2 years and he's changed the lives of countless soldiers! The Army is a better place because of him.

Changes are Coming....

we are in the home stretch of our upcoming move to Fort Campbell, KY. Our neighbors and good friends left last week to move there, and now it's our turn. I am excited and anxious to move. I hope this will be a smooth move with minimal drama. I hope the kids transition easy too. As we move to a new home I will be sad to leave behind the great family I have made for myself here at Fort Jackson. I grew bonds here at this post as a Military Spouse and it will forever hold a special place in my heart.

T minus 19 days

And DH is done being a Drill Sergeant! WOW! 2 years ago our family moved to Fort Jackson, on Jan 1st to be exact. It's been a great time and I made many great friends. But it's time for us to move on. Soon we will be packing up and headed to our new home in the hills of Tennessee. I am trying to enjoy my last 2 months here at Fort Jackson and try not to be too sad to leave. I truly love it here, I am in the minority on that but I don't mind. There is plenty to do and it's close to home. Being an Army wife you don't stationed near malls or activies often. Usually you are in the middle of no where!
