We Made It One Year

     First and foremost...I apologize for my leave of absence. Things have been crazy here. Bryan has started in academics for the T-1 where he was appointed as the SRO "Senior Ranking Officer" (because we've been here for so long.) So he is in charge of making sure the class knows what's going on for the next day and is kind of the go-to person between instructors and his class. I'm actually really (pleasantly) surprised at how well and how seriously he takes this responsibility. It's so good for him.
     We also had a couple visitors come our to experience the Del Rio lifestyle and all it's glory. Bryan's parents came out and finally got rid of alot of his junk that I'm sure has been piled up since he went to college. It actually was kind of fun to see what "goodies" he still had. Then we had Jeff, one of our friends, come out to visit us during Halloween. It was so good to see a friend outside of Air Force for a couple days, and to catch up on life back in Sylvania. I can't reiterate enough, PLEASE COME AND VISIT US!
     As for me, I have been trying to sub as often as I can. Need to make as much as possible with the holidays coming up. Especially if we make the track up to Ohio to hopefully see the birth of our 1st niece!!! Also, I am in a sewing kick again. I am making my own Christmas cards which include some minor sewing. Then my newest creation I've been working on is a quilt that consists of  Bryan and my old high school t-shirts/sweatshirts. I couldn't bare to part with them just yet, but some are so old there are holes everywhere, or they just have gotten so small, but there were taking up space in my closet, and therefor my idea formed. It's coming along slowly, but I will post pictures when I am finished.
     And then for the biggest news, Bryan and I have successfully been married for 1 year! Gosh already? I can't believe it's been one whole year. It seems like yesterday we were walking down the beach to say "I do." And honestly I want to be there right now. Del Rio just doesn't compare. I was at a lost for ideas for gifts for Bryan, so I looked up what the 1st anniversary was and it was paper?! So brainstorming I came up with a signed picture of Jim Tressel and the Horseshoe. He was surprised...hopefully he liked it. It fits well in his man cave. He got me a pair of genuine leather cow(girl) boots. He claims that it's his way of keeping me around for another year. =) I am so blessed.

Well I hope you all had a great Halloween, and I promise to repost before Thanksgiving.

                  Miss you all.
