The Past Couple Weeks & The Next 6 Months

Wow for the past couple weeks things have been busy--with a capital B!!! I'm trying to think of what we have done since my last post and I don't even know lol. Work has been crazy and I've had a couple long days the last couple weeks. On Friday's after work we've been taking a marriage/couples class at our church. Its been so nice just getting to meet other young couples and have good Bible based discussions. Its been giving us more to talk about and I see more how much our views and beliefs are alike. It has been very helpful to me and has been fun!

We've just been trying to relax a little bit (which hasn't really been happening) and just hanging out with friends a lot. We've gone to a couple movies. Robbie and I had a date night and saw the new "Left Behind" movie. This past weekend I went with a girlfriend to see the new Nicholas Sparks movie/chick flick "The Best of Me" while Robbie went to see a scary movie I didn't want to see lol.

I've still been posting daily on the Facebook page Our Military Love Story that I mentioned joining a little while ago. That has been fun! I love getting comments and responses and getting all the fans of the page talking and interacting with each other. Its awesome to see such a good community for military significant others/spouses! The other ladies who are Admins of the page are great as well! Its nice getting to know them a little bit as well and to know we're all going through the same things together.

I do have some really exciting news to share! We finally heard back last night that Robbie's reenlistment got approved! We are both super excited! I'm so relieved and happy to finally have an answer and an idea of what is going on. As of right now it looks like we'll be moving the NC in June. Things can always change until we get official orders but that is the time frame we were given and the word right now. We've been planning that this was going to be happening next year but its so surreal thinking about it actually happening! Better get ready East Coast I'm coming back! ;)

As exciting as everything is it also feels like a time crunch--June is only about 6 months away! So for the next 6 months we're going to be busy Busy BUSY!! We've already been making a Bucket List of things to do on the West Coast before we move and now that we have a time to get it all done by we're going to be running around a lot I have a feeling! Not to mention the next couple weeks and months in general are super busy with lots of excitement planned!

This weekend we have a Luke Bryan concert. Next weekend is Halloween. November 5th is Robbie's USMC ball that we are attending. End of November is Thanksgiving. Then there's Christmas (with a possible trip to visit Robbie's family) and New Years. February is Valentines Day and a dual birthday trip to Vegas for Robbie's 30th and our friend Jessica's 21st. March is the only chill nothing-planned-as-of-yet month. April we're going to the 3-day country music festival Stagecoach again. May will be crazy with packing and getting ready to move and then June is the big move. So much to do, so little time! So much fun to have and be had, so little time! So much planned, so little time!

All in all, I'm super excited to see where our future takes us and to be near my family once again. Our friends Tyler & Jess are also supposed to move to NC (right near us) in July! I'm super excited that we will be going to roughly the same place together around the same time. It will make our move and life in NC that much easier! There are so many things we want to do out here before we move and I just hope we'll get to do most of them. So many plans to be made and lots of excitement to come. I'm so glad to have this prayer answered in such a beautiful way! I'm so thankful to now have a time line to be able to make our future plans and move forward with them. The best is yet to come :)
