Welcome Home Drew

As you can imagine, life over the last week has been wonderful and busy all at the same time. It's hard to believe Drew has been home for a week, but I am of course enjoying every minute of it. The two of us have hardly sat still and with how our calendar looks it will probably be at least another week until we do. That's okay though, because he is home. I will take being busy and slightly tired over Iraq. I didn't realize how stressed out I was until he was home for about 24 hours. I actually felt lighter and more carefree. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of time to write right now, or a lot of pictures from the Welcome Home Ceremony, but Drew's sister Gayle made a beautiful video/slide show of the day. Be sure to have the sound turned up.

Enjoy!

Back in the USA!!!!

Yes, Drew is stateside and in less than a week he will be here! I have a feeling it's going to be the loooongest week of the year, but then again, he is safe and in the same time zone! Not to mention I don't have to fight through static phone lines, seven hour time difference, speaking in code or the Skype video freezing.

I will get to see his face IN PERSON in five days!

There is a BRIGHT light at the end of the tunnel.
