A Little Bit of Everything

I do miss being at my house with all of my things and my friends and routine, but I have enjoyed being at my mom's house.  I like being able to go outside and see Bella and let Jack run around outside.  I enjoy playing games with my brothers and having company while I watch a movie or tv.  It's nice hanging out with my brothers.  It's like they're friends that were born into my life.  I didn't choose them, but they're there.  I may not be super close with them, but I love them and I never feel awkward when I see them no matter how long it's been.

It's weird though.. I thought that the time would go by fast when I came to Arkansas, but it really hasn't.  It's gone pretty slow actually.  Oh well, time IS moving whether it seems like it or not.

I also got some good news from a fellow Army wife =) .  Supposedly her DH is coming home X months earlier than scheduled and DH could possibly be coming home X months early too.  It's not super early, but I'll take what I can get =) .  I do hope he comes home early, but I'm prepared to wait however long it takes.

On another note, DH has been doing OPSEC for the past few days so I haven't been able to talk to him. I don't think I'll be able to talk to him for another couple of days either.  Oh well, I have my family to keep me company.

Oh yea, 3 days 'till 2011!!!

I'm Home!

Or at least my other home =P .  We made it to AR after about a 6 hour drive.  We had to leave later because I waited on my flowers to arrive.  They are so pretty!  Red and white tulips in a red vase with a silver bow on it <3.  They wilted a little on the way here, but I think they'll recover quickly.

Anyway, I went to visit Bella (my mom's calf) once I got here and she has gotten SO big!  It's probably hard to picture, but when I left her she was about 3 weeks old and the size of Jack.  Now she's about the size of, well… a small cow lol.  I also went to visit Highnoon.  He's my favorite horse (out of 6). He's a Morgan horse (for those of you who know anything about horses or who care to google lol) and he's so sweet!  They're all really sweet, but I especially like him because he used to be so shy and he always comes up to me to let me pet him.  I trust him the most and I just love him to bits!

Not much else going on.  I gave my brothers their Christmas gifts early.  I gave my oldest brother, Justin, Bioshock 2 for xbox 360 and my youngest brother, Chris, another xbox controller so he could play with Justin lol.

I also got to talk to DH!  I didn't think I'd get to talk to him until Monday, but he was relieved from duty early =) .  Hopefully I'll continue to be able to talk to him all the way until Christmas.

Anyway, I'm super tired since I went to bed late and woke up early to talk to DH.  Below is a picture of Bella when she was only a couple weeks old.  I'll post a picture later of her current state.
