Ft. Campbell...

Sorry to everyone for not posting anything for quite some time but we are without internet service til the middle of June...

We have rented a house in Clarksville, TN and are almost all unpacked and settled in. The house is very nice, lots of space and lots of storage...the kids are happy to have a place to call home. (Although they ask me every night if we are leaving/moving soon) lol

I am a platoon leader in 2-44 ADA Bn and they just got back from a year long rotation in Iraq. Its kind of nice to be coming into a unit at this time because we are resetting and as such we have a lot of time off for family time.

Danae hasn't been to the Dr.'s yet so we don't know what we are having...she will probably not get to see the OBGYN for a while because everyone is pregnant down here! so all the OBGYN's are packed...we will post something whenever we find out.

Pray for us as we are looking for a church and as I get settled into my new position/unit.

Love and miss you all. Feel free to visit anytime you want...we have extra room!

We made it....

Well after a long day of flying, we made it to Ft Benning GA. It has been great. Brookelynn won't let her daddy out of her sight and Kierra is totally up for the adventure again. They are eating cereal out of a cup on the floor of the hotel and watching cartoons. It's a little crazy, but we are enjoying life all being together again.

We will load the remainder of our things here in GA and head out for Ft Campbell KY tomorrow afternoon. Will graduates in the morning. Pray that the Lord will have the perfect house waiting for us and if we have to wait...patience in the waiting. We are all so ready to not be living out of suitcases and so ready to spread out a bit again. I know the Lord already knows our future and I will rest in that.

It was so great spending tons of time with all my friends and family. Love you all!!

This is a few pictures of our last month here in Idaho. It has been fun seeing and hanging out with all our friends and family. We even got to see Levi (my brother) and his family that came from Ft Leonard Wood MO. It is a bitter sweet good bye to this great state and saying good bye is never easy.

But we get to see daddy (Will) tomorrow and for that we are so very excited!! And we're hoping a house will be quickly available as we are anxious to get all our stuff out of storage which is already in KY waiting for us.

As for the pregnancy, it is going well and I am feeling lots of movement. We can't wait to find out what we're having but it's going to be another 2 months maybe before I can get that ultrasound. So I keep telling myself that waiting longer won't change the sex of the baby so what's the rush...right?

Well, we will write more when we get to GA and KY. We will miss you all here in Idaho. Come visit us whenever....well, maybe you should wait till we get a house, but it will always be open for you!

Love

Danae

Pathfinder Week 2

Wow! I thought last week was mentally challenging...this week made last week seem like a joke. :) Thankfully, I passed the dreaded drop zone test and now we will move on to practical application of what we have learned in the field.

This is my last weekend before I get to be with my girls again and I am like a 7 year old kid waiting for Christmas. God has been good (as usual) but we are all ready to be united once again.

Next stop will be Fort Campbell, KY (or Clarksville, TN) depending on where our house is located. Fort Campbell borders the two states...you get the picture.

Hopefully we will get into a house on post, but if not God will provide us a home.

Love and miss you all.

Pathfinder Week 1

I just finished one of the most humbling weeks of my career (with a smile of course). :-) This course that I am in now is by far the hardest academic course I've been in so far. We had 3 tests last week and I missed more points on those 3 test than I did on all my Army schools in the past year combined...part of the issue is that I am dealing with stuff that I have never heard of before let alone seen. So I am learning a lot. :) This week we have 3 more big tests so please pray that I will continue to pick up the information being shot out of a fire hose at me.

This is my second to last weekend before I get to see the girls and I am so excited to be reunited with them again. God has been graceful and made this time go by very quickly so I am very thankful for that.

Danae will supervise the packing and movement of our household goods on Monday and Tuesday and then it will just be a count down until they head out to Georgia. After I pick them up in Atlanta we will gather the rest of our stuff that we have here and drive our two cars to Ft. Cambpell, KY. Please be in prayer that we will be able to find a house quickly so that my poor family can have something to call home for the first time in a year and a half.

I love and miss all of you guys and look forward to hearing from you this week.

The Girls going out with Uncle Sage....

Last night the girls got to go to their Grandma Linda's house and see all her animals. Uncle Sage and Aunt Kristen dared the venture with them and they had a blast. Mommy got some alone time and that was much needed and a great break. Two more weeks before we leave to see Daddy and we're all ready. I am finishing up last minute packing as the movers will be here on Monday. It's exciting to see all our stuff again even if it is just through piles in storage. Lol. Hope all is well with everyone.
