Home Sweet Home

We made it home safely. We left Wednesday early so we could have time to stop and site seeing. We made it to Mobile, AL by 1pm so we stopped at the USS Alabama Battleship Park. It was a lot of fun. I will post pictures later when I find my camera. We spend a couple of hours there then head back on the road. So we decide then to go ahead and stop in Pensacola, FL. SO we found a good hotel and got a good dinner then rested. Thursday we woke up kinda late but was just not ready to head back home we enjoy the site seeing we did the day before. So we decide last minute has checking out that we wanted to go to the National Navy Aviation Museum, so we went. More pictures later. Then when we left there and had some good BBQ and finally headed home. We got home around 11pm. So that drive was way long but fun! Glad to be home!

Welcome 2011!

I am so ready for 2011! I don't know why but I felt that it could not come soon enough. So I thought I would write about my plans and events this year. I am not making "goals" but just things I want to change about my life and new ways to do things!

My list of things to approve on:
1) Cleaning and de-clutter my house! I hate living in a house that is dirty so i want to take my house room by room and clean it out from ceiling and floor so i can find things and feel at peace. Also, to learn how to keep it maintain. I fill like i have to spend hours over hours just cleaning but never getting anywhere!

2) Get active! - I don't care if it is walking around the block or going to the gym. I just want to get physical and try to lose some weight. I need to find a way or a method to do something. I have to lose this weight!

3) Learn to cook more foods! I want to learn to be healthier. I am tired of eating junk food and the only vegetables I know how to cook are out of a can and as a side. So I am hoping to learn some vegetation meals so I can slowly learn to like more vegetables and good ways to enjoy them.

4) Stop drinking sodas and go to WATER!!!

So here are some exciting things I am looking forward to this year!

1) Hopefully my Hubby will have a wonderful time and graduate from AIT and be a positive experience.

2) Enjoy our last few months in Georgia! Has much has I am ready to leave the area I really don't want to leave the friends I made!

3) Having a smooth and successful move to Germany!

4) Hopefully this year will also bring in a baby at some time!

And I wish for health and money! lol....

So, here is to a great year!

Goodbye 2010

Goodbye 2010 and hello to 2011! So I must stop to think about my last year and this year!
2010
The year of Deployment! So I can now say I am a "real" Army wife and survived a 12 month deployment. During this year I learned a lot about my self, some negs and some positive. I know I am can and am strong!

Also this year we got to go to Disney World during R&R in July. We had a blast and really enjoy our time together. It was so wonderful and a great way to spend time together.

We celebrated our 8th Anniversary! He was back in Iraq on the day but still it was a special day for us!

Then I was able to care for my sister, Rebeka, for the last 4 months. That help me learn and grow and learning to enjoy her company. I was glad to have this time to bond with her. We had some great times and I hope we will have great memories!

Then I celebrated my 30th Birthday! I was not looking forward to this birthday but I took it with a smile!

Then it was the time I waited for: Jeremy coming home! I was so excited!

We got to go home to Texas to spend the holidays and even got to see our families! What a wonderful time we had!

Here is to 2010! I hope that 2011 will be a great year too!

Going Out with a Bang!

Well, 2010 actually went out with a bang! New Year's Eve me and Jeremy thought about going out on a small date cause we never do anything like that alone since he has been back from Iraq. Everyone had something to do, so we went to Beaumont and had Johnny Carino's. Then Adam and Kim got in touch with us so we went shopping and hang out with them for the rest of the day. Then we came back to Buna and the whole family did fireworks together. Now here comes the BANG! we went to Marie's mom's house since it was kinda raining. That way we could sit in chairs on the edge of the garage and watch Jeremy shots the fireworks. That way we are far from them. Well, I was standing at the edge of the garage taking pictures of Jeremy in the road doing fireworks. he had a beautiful fountain so i was just snapping away. Next thing I knew I saw something out of the corner of my eye but did not know what it was. Next I felt a sharp pain in my leg thigh that I just wanted to fall down. Has I looked down I see something exploded right by me, and all I could think about was all the fireworks are coming at me. So I jumped to try to get out of the way. After everything calms down I realized that my leg is now killing me and there is a hole in my jeans. Anyways- I realized I got hit by a artillery shell in the leg. Nothing to bad.. It did bruise my leg extremely and cut the skin a little but I will be okay. Just that it is on my muscle so it hurts!

Anyways here is some pictures!
