So...it's been wayyy too long since I've blogged.

I don't know exactly how many people actually follow this but, I'm gonna keep trying to be a good blogger.

So Rush has been in Cali for the past 4 weeks helping out another unit with training. He's not too happy about it since he really doesn't have a job to keep him busy when they aren't firing "God's guns" which is quite a bit of down time for him. Mostly he's bored, he's already read the book he took with him, and he doesn't have one of those hi-tech phones that have all those games on them. He should be home in about 10 days, which I am so ready for. I feel like I just got him back from Afghanistan and now he is gone again.

It's hard to believe we've almost been married for a whole year! And MAY is going to be absolutely CRAZY for us this year...

But first we are going to celebrate our 1st Anniversary on Saturday May, 8th. I don't think we are going to plan anything big since the week after we'll be sunning in ourselves Oahu, Hawaii! While Rush has been gone, I've been doing a lot of work planning our honeymoon to Hawaii! Yep we went ahead and booked it and I've got an "itinerary" of what we are going to do and when. It's going to be so much fun, we are planning on scuba diving, horseback riding, sight seeing, sunrise hiking, (hopefully) sunset cruising, and tanning on the beach! YAY! Now if everyone could please pray that everything happens to where they STILL let Rush off to enjoy this. Gotta love the military.

Anyways, before we get to Hawaii, we are going to be flying in to Dallas to celebrate Bruce and Kerie's wedding! It's going to be crazy fun, and I can't wait to see Rush in a tux. ;) He's so handsome. We're so excited to be able to also make it to the rehearsal dinner on Friday night. And I know Rush is going to love being with all of his buddies. Also I am hoping that Garrett and Liesl make it to Waxahachie so that I can finally meet my newest nephew, Ethan!

Sunday morning after the wedding we fly out to Hawaii! We'll be flying back in on Friday but because of the time difference it will be Saturday morning in Texas. We'll have to land in DFW and then get a cab to Love Field so that we can catch a flight to San Antonio. Yes I know we are going to be tired, but we plan on having something to help us sleep on the plane ride.

Once in San Antonio someone is going to pick us up and we are going to attend my cousin Georgia's wedding! It'll be fun and I can't wait to see family. Then Sunday night we fly back home to North Carolina.

Too bad we aren't getting frequent flyer miles.

THEN if that's not enough, Monday on the 24th of May we are MOVING! Not far, but on base. I figure just ask off and sleep in then get moved by TMO (some guys will come in and pack all of our stuff and then drive it on base for us and then unpack the boxes and I think set up our furniture!) Rush and I both plan on asking off so that we can oversee the moving process and then buy them pizza for lunch so that they'll take great care of our stuff! At least I've heard that worked for others. :)

So in short May is going to be a very busy month for us, and I look forward to every second of it!
