Update :D

Oh goodness gracious! I have been absolutely HORRIBLE at keeping this updated. :/
Here is the update.... 

Peter is in IRAQ! 

haha, ok but there is more :)

We are going on almost 4 weeks of him being there, and I keep getting asked,
"When is he coming back?"
"How long will he be there??" 

The answer to both questions is, "I dont know." "WE dont know."

Prsident Obama has promised all troops out of Iraq by December. I dont believe that, because if it were true, then we would be plannign a homecoming in December and I would get my husband back for Christmas. So we will just wait and see :)

So far Peter is doing well. I wish he could get on here and let you all know what he thinks of Iraq, but I think i will do it instead and add some sugar to it. He HATES it there. He knows that he is doing his duty and its his job to be over there, but being over there has helped him to see that there is no point. Not going to get all political or anything, or start bashing on Iraq, but it is completely safe to say that he HATES it : ) that is the nicest way it can be put haha. 

He has taken a few pictures, but with what he is doing he cant pull out his camera to document everything [i asked him to hand it to someone else to take pictures for him, and we will see how that goes] 



So there you have it : ) Thanks for reading, and im really sorry if this came off as "bossy". I am only meaning to be informative, and help my husband stay safe. : ) 

PICTURE TIME!!!!!
some of you have seen these on facebook..... but here they are : ) 



HOPE YOU ALL ENJOY!!!! ♥

saying goodbye.....

I have had songs pop in my head that Peter and I both LOVE. They make me happy AND at the same time make me sad. I think it is because i know i wont be able to actually listen to them WITH him since he will be gone for at least 7 months. I Miss him so much already BUT i also know that its not forever, and we just started. Im trying to be pretty upbeat about it and not be a whiny self centered "woe is me, becaus my husband is deployed" type of people. Trust me when i say, I know how those type of people are. I see updates on Facebook and hear from people all the time. I dont like when people whine about stuff they can control. I might complain for a few minutes, but it is not all on facebook and no one really ever knows when i do it. Unless that person is Peter. HAHA, he has to hear it sometimes from me : ) THATS why we are in love and married. To be each others support and we are allowed to vent, cry, complain, whine [a little] and generally be there for each other. This time will allow us [as crazy as it sounds] to grow closer to one another AND closer to our Heavenly Father. We are dealing with this ok and appreciate all the support from our family and friends ♥

Here are some pictrues [if you have already seen them on Facebook, then im sorry and bear with me as i try to share with everyone what this day was like for us...] from the Day peter left. I plan on blowing some of them to very large size and hanging them in one of our hallways...
