Perhaps some of you may have noticed the new counter on the side of our blog.  That’s because we now have “final” dates for when we have to be at our first base!!  We have to be there on October 1!  Originally it was going to be next February and we are very excited to have gotten the date moved up.  On our trip out there we wanted to stop and visit family and friends on the way…and that trip got extended to an entire cross-country trip.  Can’t wait to head out on September 1st!  Only 2 months away!

On another note, my sweet husband commissioned on June 8 as a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Air Force!  With right-hand raised, he left behind his ROTC days and became an officer.  Five years of long, hard work.  Definitely such an exciting moment!
