Happy New Years Eve!

Wow.  I can't believe I have been writing this blog for a year now!

I had to publish my last blog of the year, since I'm at the one year anniversary.  How crazy it is to think that a year ago Jesse and I had so much ahead of us...  Driving/Moving to Georgia, BOLC II, IBOLC, lots of friends, new place to live, new areas to explore, and lots of new adventures.

So much has happened to us, both good and bad, and a year ago I would have never thought that I was going to be on my own the following New Year's Eve.  I have to say though, every day of 2009 has been a great learning experience, I am grateful for every day of it.  I would not have thought a year ago I would be the person that I am now - all the knowledge I have along with the strength to carry on.  It's quite an amazing thing.

I hope you all have a safe and happy New Years celebration, and Happy New Years to my husband serving his country, where it is already New Years Day.  Here's to a great year to come!

Leave, Flowers, The House, and More

I'm sorry my motivation for blogging is lacking right now!

I talked to Jesse last night and this morning.... I'm not quite sure what my problem is but I have been going through this phase where I just want him to come home.  I am completely aware of how irrational my thoughts are, but that is how I am feeling.  Jesse says that he's probably going to get leave, but again nothing is set.  We're not making any solid plans of course, but we are discussing some fun stuff to do.  Right now it looks like we'll be making a trip out to Ocean Shores, so I'm excited.

Today was my day off so mom and I went out to the house.  I don't think I had been there since before Christmas.  I really really need to get things together, but still haven't found the screws to my bed.  My father is also still working, so I don't really have anyone to help me put big things together.  We did unpack a lot of clothes (mostly stuff on hangers), and decided where furniture is going to be arranged.  I'm going to also need to set up the TV, get cable, phone, and internet set up.  I will also have to get all the stuff in line to put up a fence for the dog.

Yesterday I received a dozen red roses along with six calla lilies from Jesse.  They are very nice and very pretty.  The day before that I received a rug from him, complete with misspelled words!  It's pretty obvious that the people around the area do not have a lot of education, especially since they can't even spell their country's name correctly.  Oh well I guess, it still is an interesting piece to have in the house.  I have one more package on the way, which I'm excited about too.

My birthday is right around the corner (I know it's not January yet) and Jesse and I have picked out my birthday/Valentine's Day gift, which I am super excited about!  It's a pendant from Kay's.  SO excited :)

Tomorrow I work, but I'm not going to get completely stressed out this time if I don't get out on time.  Besides that I highly doubt we're going to have a lot of business, with everyone's New Year's festivities. I am very excited for the new year, 2010 is going to bring many more fun things!  Have a safe New Year's Eve!

Happy New Year

As we start this new year, Jesse and I thought we would give blogging a try to keep our friends and family updated with both our move and our life in general.

Feel free to check back occasionally to see what is new with us.

We hope that you all had a fun and safe New Year's Eve.
