Hey Everybody!

Well...I know I have been largely MIA from the board lately. I apologize. We have a lot going on right now. Hubby is still deployed...but will be home in a little over a month! We are also going to have to move. He is getting new orders. It is almost a sure thing that we will be in Charleston. So much so...that we went this week to put money down on a house we are having built...with a contingency clause in case we need it. So...I will be in and out for the next few months as we prepare for Dan to come home...go on a vacation together...then the move. Please know that I love you guys and pray for you often! I will still be popping in. I just wanted you to know I am still here...and have not vanished! Love, Stephanie

Stephanie, I was an Army wife for four years, though during peace time. I understand the mobility involved in military life. I will be praying for your housing situation, and your husband's anticipated return. Know that you are loved here, but more importantly, you are loved by our Father in heaven. Hugs, Trish

Awww..you are so sweet, Trish! I have been thinking about you. How did Thursday and Friday go? I hope better than you expected! Love, Stephanie

Hey, Stephanie how nice to hear from you. What an exciting time is coming up in your life. I wish you all the best. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers till we hear from you again. Enjoy. Hugs and much love, Sandyd

Hey Sandy...Yes...lots going on here...and I also have something going on with my hand now...and it makes it difficult to type. So...off to the dr I go on the 24th...so I can get better...and get packing.... Will be here and there for a while...great to hear from you! Love, Stephanie

Steph~ First of all your picture is just GORGEOUS!!!! I have been thinking about you and wondering how you were doing. It is good to see your smiling face. When you get to wherever it is you are going, please let me know. As always I will be praying for you and your family... Jeanna

Thanks Jeanna! We THINK we are going to Charleston, SC. My husband's rotation date is 1/7/07...but we don't have any orders yet! He is trying to get a position that needs special clearance...and it is taking FOREVER!!!!! We have put earnest money on a house...with a clause that we can get it back if we don't get orders there...but I am so excited! He will be home in just a few weeks...lots to do...so email me if you need me...I check email every day...several times a day. Love, Stephanie
