More I Do’s

Congrats to Cole and Amanda Williamson!

Chad’s younger brother got married yesterday morning to sweet Amanda! Unfortunately, I couldn’t make the nuptials, the stack of work on my desk was calling my name.

I got to spend Saturday with Cole after I picked him up from the airport, weather was nice, Cole put the top down on the Vette…nice. We stopped off and got Cole outfitted for his big day and then grabbed a bite to eat.

Sunday I headed down to Cowboy Church with Chad’s family, had lunch with them, and then went with Glen to see Nana. Always glad to see Nana.

Thanks for spending the weekend with me Williamson’s!

Was going to try and go see Chad this weekend…but he got new orders. He is leaving Benning and heading to Camp Shelby, MS to start pre-deployment training.  Bummer.

A HUGE THANK YOU to two of the guys at the office for being so supportive and offering to help me out so much to try and get to Chad. I consider myself to be so lucky to work with such great people.

Sunday was rough at the wedding… This was our first, of many, big events apart. I know how much Chad wanted to be there and how much I wanted him there.

To the Bride and Groom: Congrats from A Solider and his Wife – we love you both!

Termites Eat Concrete?

I guess the ones at Ft. Benning do. For the time being Chad managed to kill them with Lysol…who knew!

Chad informed his higher ups earlier this week. Army motto “sit around wait” right? He still has termites. My guess, he will have them until he goes to his next station.

Tick Tock…Tick…….Tock

Does it feel like a minute takes an hour to anyone else around here?

So Chad is at Ft. Benning, no internet and thanks to all our fine tax dollars building all those concrete barracks, he has little cell service too.

Long week, past, another long week ahead.
