Dinner :)

Tonight I went out to dinner with one of my little brothers (he'll turn 23 next week) and his girlfriend. It was fun. We went to this place called Rheinhardts Oyseter Bar. It was an interesting experience to say the least. The food was good and it was nice to spend at least some time with them before we leave. We are supposed to go to dinner next friday with my dad too. That will be nice. I am leaving here next Saturday. I can't believe it's time to leave here already. I will be sad. It's been so nice having my dad in my daily life. Sierra will miss him like crazy.. i already know it. She's done so well this deployment. I am very proud of her. She misses James but she's handleing it a lot better than I thought she would. Tonight on the way home I was listening to my Sirius radio and it was on the 60's station I listen to once in a while and Sonny and Cher's "I Got You Babe" came on. That is so James and my song. We got married really young but look at us now, seven years later... stronger than ever. I cant imagine my life without him. He is my world. I know that he feels the same way too. I need to download that song from Itunes and put it on my ipod. My plan as for now is to go to Texas for a week, Oklahoma for a week & be in Arizona by the 16th or 17th. We'll see. Tomorrow James takes his final boards to finally qualify for ESWS. He did the 1st class boards earlier this week. Basiclly it's a warfare pin. He said he's going to "butter them up" with fresh baked cookies and hot wings! I knew being a cook would pay off someday! lol. He was supposed to get it in 2003 before he lfet the Lake Erie but they werent holding boards until the day we flew out.. and by the time they called us it was too late. And you can't get it while on shore duty. Anyway, I am ready for bed so i'll leave you for now with the lyrics to "I Got You Babe"...dedicated to James..We're proud of you!

They say we're young and we don't know
We won't find out until we're grown
Well I don't know if all that's true
'Cause you got me, and baby I got you
BabeI got you babeI got you babe
They say our love won't pay the rent
Before it's earned,Our money's all been spent
I guess that's so, we don't have a pot
But at least I'm sureOf all the things we got
BabeI got you babeI got you babe
I got flowers in the springI got you to wear my ring
And when I'm sad, you're a clown
And if I get scared, you're always around
Don't let them say your hair's too long
'Cause I don't care,With you I can't go wrong
Then put your little hand in mine
There ain't no hill or mountain
We can't climb
Babe I got you babeI got you babe
I got you to hold my hand
I got you to understandI got you to walk with me
I got you to talk with me
I got you to kiss goodnight
I got you to hold me tightI got you, I won't let goI got you to love me so
I got you babeI got you babeI got you babeI got you babe

Bored

We were bored yesterday and decided to pose for some pictures for fun! Sierra wanted to strike a pose with my dad's mustang, lol. We leave here on Saturday August 2nd to go to Texas. I should be there for about a week and then onto Oklahoma & then Arizona. I've been looking on Craiglist for places to live and I am pretty confident that around this time next month I should know where we are moving to.. or at least have it narrowed down. I can't believe it's been almost five months since James left. Thankfully, I've been very busy here in Georgia so it's helped time fly. Although we miss him a lot and I cannot wait until homecoming. Just 2 1/2 months left!! August should fly pretty fast since we will be moving around so much. I just have all of september to stay busy unpacking/getting settled in the new house and then in October he'll be home!
