june 14, 2008 -- BEST day of my life!
i sure am missing him right now! he's off being an army man in san antonio for 6 whole weeks. he left on june 13th and will be back in lexington on july 28th. but i do get to talk to him every night and text throughout the day, including sending him word jumble puzzles to keep him awake during his classes about learning to be an officer in the army. this isn't like regular boot camp, he stays in a hotel with his own kitchen area and maids (so this is where your tax dollars are going haha) and takes classes during the day and some physical training. but his last 3 weeks, most days are going to be spent in the field, learning how to do patrols, shooting guns (he is SO excited!) and "real" army stuff, even though his job in the army will be fixing people's teeth :)
so isaac left on the 13th and i flew out to kentucky on the 14th (great anniversary, huh? hehe). i would have died if i had to stay in oklahoma all by myself for that long! i have LOVED LOVED LOVED being home, being in my old room, and being spoiled by my parents! i get to hang out with the greatest people on earth, my family. i get to run in the morning around tall, green trees and beautiful green grass. my parents are in the beginning stages (meetings with the architect, no construction just yet) of building a house out on our farm and it makes me so excited to do the same sometime in the future!
here are some pictures i took with my phone of home :)
this is the rock wall my dad is building in our backyard. he took a dry stone masonry class a few years ago and loves it!
freshly picked blueberries from our plants in our backyard! we also have blackberries and raspberries :)
this is what i get to see everyday when i run! the UK arboretum that backs up to our house.
only 22 more days until i get to see my love! hope everyone is having a great summer! and a shout out to all my other army wife friends who are having to go without our husbands this summer. it's good to know that they are having a good time golfing all the time with each other :) can't wait to see you guys back in oklahoma!

Jealous you get to spend so much time in Lex! Although, sad to be without your hubby for sure.
Love that your Dad took dry masonry classes. That guy is the BEST. It was so fun to see your fam at Chuck's reception.
Congrats on your anniversary! I can hardly believe it's been 2 years! I still remember hearing all about you when you went home for the summer and Isaac and I were in Utah... You guys are perfect for each other. I love it. :-)
