We have a home again

We officially have keys to our on post housing. We love our place and it is ours. Our household goods will arrive tomorrow. We purchased 2 area rugs to fill our bedroom and the living room to go where the couch and chair will go. I will post photos as soon as I can. We are so excited to get moved in. Well we are off to dinner. We are tired from moving some things from our guest house room to our home. We are so ready to be able to sleep in our own bed. It has been almost a month. Lance was at airborne school before that so I know he is ready to sleep in it again. It rained today but now the sun is out and it is warm again. Hope the weather is nice for tomorrow's move. The past 2 days I have helped at our friend's pest control company. They needed some typing done so I helped there. I will return next week to do some more admin duties. Take care and keep us posted on you.

We have a home!

Housing called this morning, we went and looked at a place in Werner Park at Ft. Campbell that is a 2 bedroom and we are moving in next Weds! It is quite roomy for a 2 bedroom and we believe and pray all of our stuff will fit. It has quite a large kitchen and it has an attached garage which will give us storage if we need it. It has a fenced in backyard for Simba so she will be happy. She is currently in Nashville staying with friends and she is loving it since they have 2 dogs. They are all playing and getting along very well. We are so exactic that we will be able to bring her to a home next week! We were hoping to be moved in before Lance has to leave for a short time. He is very excited to go on this mission but wanted to make sure I was settled before leaving. I am still planning on going to China with Lance's Dad in Sept. or Oct. We haven't heard yet for sure when I will go or anything about our daughter. In June or July we will receive a photograph and medical report on Gracie. That will be her first name! We are loving being back at Ft. Campbell, loving the 70 degree weather with no humidity. The trees are a breath of fresh air and the red buds and tulips are in bloom! So different than Ft. Hood. Take care and thank you for your prayers for us.

Just here waiting

We are still waiting for our name to come up on the housing list. We started at number 20 and Friday we were 17. So we are moving and that is good. We did look at some homes to buy but our best option would be to move on post. We would get a 2 bedroom which is quite a bit smaller than our 3 bedroom home but we would deal with it. We may have to store some things. We will just have to wait and see. We went to Grace Chapel today. It is the chapel for 5th Group. We enjoyed it. I have my first coffee with the other 5th Group Chaplain wives tomorrow night. I am looking forward to meeting them. Lance officially starts work tomorrow. He is looking forward to that. Everyone we have met so far has been super nice and we both are so excited in being a part of the Special Forces Group. Such a different part of the Army. They are all so close and seem to love their jobs. Lance will be jumping with them Weds and I am looking forward to taking pictures and being there to see him. I'll keep you posted on us. Hope all is well where you are. Take care and keep the comments coming!

Tennessee

We are enjoying being back at Ft. Campbell. We were here in 1995-1997. We are seeing friends we haven't seen in a while. It is great! We are still waiting for on post housing. We will probably get housing in June. There is a 2-4 month waiting list. We are currently at the guest house. Simba is staying with some friends in Nashville. They have 2 pugs and Simba is enjoying having friends to play with. Lance's new unit is awesome and we are so excited to be a part of the 5th Group Special Forces. Such a different environment than a non-SF unit. Everyone is great. I'll keep you posted on us and hope you are doing well.

Bye Bye Texas

Well we are officially homeless and are no longer in TX. We closed on our home Fri. and left today Sat. in route to Ft. Campbell, KY. We are staying with a friend in Nashville, TN Sunday and he and his wife will watch Simba all week as we look for a place to live. We are hoping to get on post but we will have to wait and see how long the list list. We may have to buy or rent. I just wanted to give an update on us and to let you know how much we will miss our TX friends. What great friends we have in TX and we hope to meet up with you again. Take care and keep in touch and keep checking back here as I will post when I can.
