It's been awhile...

Hello blog and blogworld, are you still out there? I know its been a while... I guess you could say, we've been a little preoccupied! My last blog post was one month ago! Yikes! I will try and back track a little, while trying to stay up to date...

So, on our 10 year anniversary, Ross got notified of a short notice deployment to Afghanistan... Bummer, right? Our whole summer trip was altered, and well, we just went into crazy mode to prepare for his deployment. The kids and I went to Arizona (part of our summer trip) while Ross went off to training. We had fun in Arizona, and I will share some bits from that, and then were blessed with a chance to see Ross one more time before he headed overseas. He had 2.5 days in Denver, so we flew up there and took advantage of it! It was a nice, but short couple of days...

Off he went (two goodbyes, tough) and then home we came. Coming home without him was a lot harder than I thought, but nothing compared to the traveling ordeal Ross has been going through... Anyway, that's where we are now...

For those of you who know what's going on and having been praying for us, thank you. We feel your prayers. If my blog changes tone a little, its partly to share more of our everyday with Ross, as well as a way for me to chat with you I guess, so thanks for that as well.

We miss you Ross/Daddy:)

Tearing up for you- it's hard, don't let anyone tell you it's not. You're one lucky girl to have Someone that loves you so much and knows exactly when your heart needs to be held closer. I will join in praying for each of you and Ross and the kids. Glad to see a little post from you, friend.
