Kyle and I have one week left until we hop on a plane to Vegas (yes I was just there a few weeks ago), we are sooo excited!!! He has not been home since Christmas 2008 so it is long overdue for him. We decided not to travel on 4th of July weekend. (as I'm sure airports here in NC will be packed, 82nd Airborne Division will be starting block leave) We usually go to Wilmington for 4th of July but we changed plans. We are headed up to Charlotte to go to Carowinds! Of course, we are both rollercoaster fanatics so it seemed like a great idea.
We are excited to spend time together with both of our families, since he won't be around much in the next year it will be amazing!! My sister and I have a "date" planned to see Eclipse together and I am really excited. I haven't talked a lot about my sister but I figured now is a good time. Lisa is 4 years older than me, but never treated me like her annoying little sister, she has been there for me through so much. I couldn't imagine my life without her, it will be great to spend quality time with her.
In about a month Kyle will hopefully be heading off to the Pre-Ranger Course, so if he makes it he probably won't be home until the end of November. I will miss him but I know this is what he wants and I will support him no matter what (here is hoping our 1st round of clomid works haha).
Well, I better get back to work, I plan on catching up on blogs tonight!
Happy Monday!!
your plans for the 4th sound like so much fun! we are thinking of going to wilmington, do they have a lot of stuff going on for the 4th?
ReplyDeleteI don't know what the pre-ranger course is, but if he gets selected, it sounds like he'll be in the same class as SoldierMan. He's slated to start in Sept. and finish end of Nov. How cool would that be?
ReplyDeleteOh boy, he definitely is overdue for a visit! I hope you all have fun in Las Vegas and a great 4th of July! I'll keep your fingers cross for Kyle - wish him luck from us all :)
ReplyDeleteWe'll be at Carowinds this weekend, too!! Are y'all going Sunday or Monday?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Vegas dear....seems like you have the whole of July figured out...lucky you!
