Setting in...

So this deployment is starting to become a reality! I guess my mind has been pushing it back and back and it was there, but not really real...and now it's real! I feel like such a baby, because my emotions are going insane! Just when I think everything is good all of the sudden I will just have to take a minute and I just start crying!! It's Absolutely Ridiculous and I HATE it!

My Best friend, the person I share everything with, the love of my life, the person I spend my life with, my children's Daddy will be gone in a combat zone, fighting in a WAR for six months! Half a YEAR!!! So all this is setting in and I'm SO not looking forward to saying goodbye to him in South Carolina! My mind feels like its running in 20 different directions. I feel crazy, I feel 100% crazy!!!

This is just one of those nights I needed a vent, so I'm sorry! Tomorrow is a new day! :o) Please keep all of us in your prayers! Peace and Safety for Korry. Patience, sanity and Wisdom for me. And obedience for our children! ;o) Thank you I appreciate all of you!!! :o)

Two Weeks

Korry left for his first training yesterday! He will be gone for 2 weeks and then be back for a day and a half and then leave for his second training and then he leaves from there to Afghanistan. His second training is only 2 days, but since there is not enough time between the 2 they are keeping him there until he flies out to Afghanistan. Since he will be in South Carolina for a few days and it's only 6-7 hours from here, the kids and I are going to meet him, spend a few days together and then be able to take him to the airport to see him off! I feel like we're having groundhogs day! I am glad he is getting to come home, believe me, the more we get to see him the better, however saying goodbye three times is going to be hard on the kids! So we didn't make a big deal about him leaving yesterday and we're not making a big deal about the flight to South Carolina either, Kiley and Brendan have school, so we're not taking them to the airport for either one. But they will be able to have their goodbyes in South Carolina when he leaves for the 6 month long one. So I think this is best! I am Hating the anticipation for this craziness! I feel like we're in limbo right now...

Kiley and Brendan have 23 days of school left! I can not believe it's almost summer! This year feels like it has FLOWN by! This summer is definitely going to keep us busy though! Kiley & Brendan are both in soccer every Tuesday & Thursday right now and LOVING it! Brendan had his first "official" game Thursday and Kiley's is tonight! This is Brendan's first competitive sport he has played on a team and he is doing really well and looks forward to EVERY Tuesday and Thursday! It's fun to watch!!! Kiley will start cheerleading and Gymnastics camp as soon as school is out for a week and then starts Baseball, well T-Ball for Brendan and Coach Pitch for Kiley. They are both looking forward to that too! And I think we're going to have swimming lessons too...lol...so it will be busy! But I'm pretty sure this is how life will stay with 3 children that Love being involved in things...in fact it will get worse because I only have 2 in sports right now! ;o)

Last weekend was Bailey's Birthday party and we all had a BLAST! We had some friends over and rented a 21 Foot inflatable slide in the backyard! It was a good time for the kids AND adults, lol! ;o) Then Sunday we had a nice relaxing family Easter! It was a good weekend, it just went by too fast!!!

Well I hope everyone had a great Easter and enjoys the week to come! :o) God Bless you All!!! :o)

Bailey is TWO!!!

I can't believe tomorrow my baby boy will be TWO years old! It seems like it was yesterday I went into labor, my water broke and I decided to clean my bathrooms and 45 minutes later he was here, lol! It has been a CRAZY 2 years! and seems crazy that Korry was gone right after he was born and now he will be gone again in just a few days!

Anyway, we are having Bailey's birthday this weekend before Korry leaves for his training in New Jersey. So it should be a lot of fun! Lots of friends, food and fun! :o) I LOVE Birthdays for my kids! They're SO much fun! We're having an Elmo themed birthday with a 22 ft. blowup slide in the backyard for all the kids, so it will be fun! Im sad that we're not close enough for any family to come, however I am very thankful for all our great friends and support system here and VERY thankful Korry will be here for it! :o) I will make sure to post pictures and keep everyone posted while Korry is gone, as much as I can!

We had ourselves a mini vacation and drove to Atlanta and went to a Hockey game! I got Korry tickets and we had been waiting since bfore Christmas! Then We went to Dallas then San Antonio for a few days to get away and went to Sea world! We went to Korrys Grandparents house first and visited with them! It was a lot of fun. Then went on to San Antonio and Korry's parents are in Germany visiting Kelly, Lacey and the boys, but they let us come and stay in their house while we were there! THANK YOU SO MUCH! It was wonderful to have a few days to relax and just be! It was a little crazy, just because Korry and I both knew HOW crazy the next few weeks were going to be! But the kids didn't notice and they had a Blast!!!

I hope everyone is doing well we love and miss all of you not here!!! I hope you all have a GREAT weekend and a Blessed Easter!!! :o)
