The Closing

Well today we closed on our home and everything went through. No turning back now. So it looks like its true we are moving to the wonderful island of Hawaii. . I'm so nervous NOW.... I honestly am sad and relieved all at the same time.. I realize that I will not be will the person I love most in life (Jeff) for all of the major holidays.. Thanksgiving.. His birthday ( hes missed all but one of mine) Christmas, New Years, and Our 5th Anniversary. So many special events coming up and I can't stop the tears because of the seperation. I do remember the 1st time we were seperated.. He was in Iraq and I was in Korea.. I missed my first flight to Korea b/c of him running late (imagine that)... Well we had to drive all the way down to dallas it was the longest drive ever. I rememver walking in with sweety palms and thinking I was leaving then.. Well come to find out I missed my 2nd flight because we at the wrong terminal.. So I received a new ticket and had a night to spend with my newly husband. So we slept in the Jeep Grand Cherokee and washed up that morning of leaving for Korea brushed teeth washed face and was ready to go.. Until I looked in those gorgeous eyes and the tears just came kinda like last night.. We had to say our first "See ya laters" it was the hardest thing I have ever done.. Well here we are once again in 28 days having to say our 2nd set of 'See ya laters'.. Its getting harder by the day. So anyways The house is gone and we are of to friends on the 26th of this month and then living out of suitcases which doesnt excite me I'm limited to what I wear.. So thats all for now.

House Stuff.

Well we close on our house this Thursday. I can't believe that I will have to move out of the home I love so much.. As I look around I see my pictures on the walls that in a week from tomorrow will be but in to boxes.. I look at my husband sitting in his favorite chair in is shorts watching his 65 in tv (football that is) and he wont be sitting in his chair for 6 mths.. The smell the look. Everything will be so different. Furniture will be rearranged in smaller rooms, and not so much space to lounge in.. This makes me sad but I do know that there is good to come out of this move.

Praise God!!

It is so amazing how God shows us how he loves us on a daily basis and if you obey he provides... Well i passed the board yesterday so I will be SGT McFadden soon.. That means more money and responsibilities. I get chills even thinking about it, but with out God there is no way I would be were I'm out now. So the stress has been lifted off my shoulders. My boss said that I just have to show up and then I can leave. This is a true blessing this means I will be ale to spend time with family and friends more than what I was going to be able to.. Reality is really starting to hit. I sent my car to Hawaii on Tuesday.. I am going to miss my best friend Sara the most she has been there in the thick and the thin times out here on recruiting. Thank you Sara for helping me and providing guidance.. :).. So for now God Bless .. Oh were out of town this weekend and we plan to be back tomorrow.

Wow time flies bye!

Well I haven't been on here it seems like in forever.. I have alot to say and no the words to say it. The mood I find my self into night is sad, overwhelmed, and calm. I know thats like contradicts.. Let me explain... Reality about moving has hit me really hard lately.. At church on sunday with the small group kick off after we were finished with the activities we got into our small groups and We started to discuss what was going to be happening the semester and it took everything I had no to cry. I didnt realize the emotional connection that I had with so many people in that room. Some are new and some are still building. I do know I am glad to be done with recruiting and not having to worry the long hours and seeing my husband for minutes each day. That is a huge relieve, however I have friends here in the lovely town of Dallas and I can't believe that we are moving now that we are starting to know people. Overwhelmed.. mmmm so much to do and no time to do it i havent moved in almost 2 years and there is so much to do between here and there. I have the promotion board on friday and I know that God will give me the memory and the confidence to sit in front of the board members and answer those questions they ask. Oh God is Great.. I don't know how life would be with out the strength that he gives all of us on a daily basis especially me... and Calm the fact of knowing that God has our backs.. I look forward to seeing those of you who choose to come to our going away party and those that can't make it.. I'll still love you, but for now God Bless and have a wonderful evening.

Everything is coming together

Well, it looks everything is coming together. The inspector came through and nothing came back. The appraiser came through this morning and had nothing bad to say other than you have a very clean home. So it looks like our home is going to be gone. :(.. I am very sad that my home is going however at the same time I'm happy because one day God willing we will own another home. We have a very busy schedule coming up and would love to see all of our friends and family prior to leaving. This weekend we will be having a huge garage house if there isnt rain. We have alot of stuff to get rid of. Well until next time. God Bless.

Super Excited!!

Well, things just couldn't fall into place at a better time in our lives. Our home is currently in contract mode to be sold. PRAISE GOD!! And we celebrated my birthday tonight. My husband did a wonderful job of suprising me. We went to Ripley's Believe it or not then to the Wax House it was pretty awesome to see those things and to get a few laughs and a few jumps from car horns. Then after that we went on to dinner reservations at the Reunion Tower. It couldn't have been any better unless you ask Jeff about the Duck.. Everything was perfect from the glass of water to the dessert. Well thats the update for now. Good night and God Bless!
