It's February Already?

       Really? Did I seriously just blink through January? I keep having to remind myself that it is in fact Feb, and by the lack of blogs, you can guess that I have been busy. However, if this year keeps going as quickly as it has been going, I'm going to be 25 before I know it!
   What you may ask has been keeping me away from updating you all on our lives you may ask. Well, first, I have been trying to get some subbing in, about 3 days a week, to bring in some extra income. Military is very generous to it's officers, however, they didn't know about us wives who enjoy the finer things that Del Rio doesn't offer, that online shopping does. (oops!) Also, I am making a couple trips these next couple weeks. 1st at the end of this month, I am so excited to be visiting my Godchild in Ohio...I suppose I'm excited about seeing the sister-in-laws too, but baby Elaina is my reason for venturing back up into the great white wonder of Ohio. Then at the end of March, I am going down to Ft. Myers to spend some quality, relaxation time with my parents. It could not have come at a more perfect time because Bryan will be finding out our next location at the beginning of May, and I am already a nervous wreck for this now! Some of you may be concerned of when Bryan gets to have a mini vacation, since I've been hogging all the trips. Well, as it would have it, he had a cross country flight he and his co-pilot had to do last Wednesday to Shreveport, LA. They were supposed to fly there, spend the night, and fly back on Thursday. However, Mother Nature had other plans, and he was snowed in until Sunday night. Yes, Shreveport is defiantly not as appealing as say, Ft. Myers, he WAS out of Del Rio. So it counts. Sorry. =)
      Also, as we have reached our 1 year, Bryan's 2 year mark, here in the Dirty Del, I have learned how to say "see ya later, good luck" to friends instead of "goodbye." It is defiantly not easy, but I am so excited to know that wherever this journey takes us, we are going to be having friends everywhere. For example. This last Friday on drop night (where you find out where your next assignment will be and where you will be moving) people found that they are moving anywhere from AZ, to Jersey, to Germany! I am definitely anticipating ours, but it's filled with anxiety and excitement. I am not one to enjoy having others plan mine (our) future...but I knew what I was marrying into.
     Finally, I participated in my 2nd quarterly CRUD tournament. What is CRUD? Well, it's hard to explain. I would say google it, it probably would do a better job of explaining it then me, but it deals with a pool table, two balls, and two teams. It's lots of fun, even though we lost. We sure looked good...



 These two are from last tournament, but you get an idea of how it's played...
There were 9 teams of about 5-7 ladies

I promise to do better, however, as ya'll know I will be gone. I'll do my best! I miss you all and hope you have a great February...even if it is moving at crazy rate.
