A Few Tidbits

It's Friday!!! 

  Anyone else excited about that?! I don't have much to say today but here are a few tidbits going on in the Smith household.

* Today is our company ORG day (family day), it will be much more organized than the last one. It will be nice to just have our relatively small group of families/soldiers together.

*I had lunch yesterday with the ever awesome Jax from the harmon squad yesterday and we set the date for her to take our pre-deployment photos!

*Kyle gets the ever dreaded multi-cam gear on Monday which means he is that much closer to the evil "D". Boo!

*We are going to a Greek Festival on Saturday, have I ever mentioned how much I love Greek Food?!

*We are already making plans for our trip home at Christmas, time to get started on Christmas shopping!

*Kyle will be applying for 2 fellowships that would start after his command time is up. Praying this all works out.

*I have registered for classes all the way through March, I'm really excited!

*I also never got my hair done when I went back to Vegas, fail. Maybe sometime in the near future I will find the time.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

  9. Yayyy for Org day!! Keeping them small and simple makes them so much more organized and fun!
    Seeing people in multicam always makes me sad for them. I'm really looking forward to your photos though!
    What kind of fellowships?? John is thinking the same thing when his command time is up. We're thinking about going to DC.. (:
    Good luck with school! Do you have two month semesters like John does? You'll have a ton of classes knocked out by March!!

  13. i've not eaten Greek food in a long time. We had a fun photo taken at the coast last weekend. Love it even though Phil doesn't always want ours taken. Memories for sure, more fun when we are out and it's against a cool nature backdrop. Going to visit my mom at the nursing home and hopefully drive her to the dahlia farm. She LOVES flowers! Have a great weekend......sorry to hear the D word is coming up. But that's part of Army life. Sigh! Hugs!

  20. Yay for booking your photo session! Sad to hear about the dreaded "D" :( but it sounds like you're going to make the best of your time apart :). I hope you have a great weekend!

  21. Glad you got the photo session scheduled! Lookign forward to seeing the pictures!

    If you like Greek food, you'll definitely want to be stationed in Germany! Why? authentic Greek restaurants (run by Greeks) all over the place, the food is out of this world yummie! And of course Greece itself being nearby ;-)

    Hope you had fun at the family day. Let me know when you have decided on what to do with your hair! I'm getting to the point where I just want to chop mine off again ;-)

  22. Now I want to go to Greece! I absolutely love that country. I could live there. The food is ridiculous! Mmm ....
