Last weekend

So--- tomorrow this time- I will be anxiously awaiting those magical hangar doors opening and getting a glimpse of my hubby for the first time in 6 months! I cannot possibly explain the feeling that will come over me. It is a little overwhelming to think about it right now. That first hug- that first kiss. The look on his face while he hugs his little ones. The look I am sure he will have when he see's Carter- whom he last saw at 1 month old. I am ready for our little family to finally be back together- at least for the next 14 months or so:)

I just pushed through an 8 page paper. I need to go through it tomorrow and clean it up. Right now my eyes are blurring all the words together. I was going to relax at home tomorrow but I think I will head to Hais school and do an hour of observation for my final project that is coming due really quickly! I am already going to have to pay a ton of money to get it sent through the mail in time to my professor in NC. Three parts of it has to be given to her by Dec 1.

Had a great day at Church today. Then a nice lunch at the DFAC afterwards. Then Katie was awesome and took Hais for me. They had a girls day- shopping. I get the following message from Katie about 2 hours into their day...Hailee said, "I like Katie and Hailee" time. Love her!! She's being good! They went shopping. They walked Layla. They went to dinner with the Rabb girls. And it allowed me to straighten the house and complete my paper (almost).

This weekend was fabulous. Friday night we went to dinner at Katies. She is a super fabulous cook and I always enjoy my Katie time:)

Saturday I had some ladies over to put together the cookie bags we will hand out to the soldiers returning tomorrow. It was Katie, Molly, Crystal, Isi, Krystal, Denise, Meghan and her two lil boys. We had some enchiladas and stuffed the cookie bags- and taste tested some of the cookies! Of course...

Tomorrow I am sure will be one of the longest days of my life. I am not complaining though. I am pretty lucky- my man is coming home. Some of my dear friends are still waiting for their soldiers. And there are still some who will never hug their soldiers again.

Another deployment down--- whoooo- I can finally breathe...
