Ryan will be deployed for a while in 2006. Right now I don't really believe that it will be happening, mostly because I've had so many friends who were going.not going, going, not going. But he's started paperwork for next of kin, his will, etc. Pray for me to be strong for him as we spend time together before he leaves, as well as him to have a safe travel. Although he doesn't want to be away from me, he is a little excited to go on a TDY.

New House?

Our weekend warrior project for this weekend was painting the outside of the house. We changed the teal trim to black and the door to red. We're very excited about the outcome :-)

Bragging

A friend of mine was bragging on her husband so I thought I'd brag on mine! He has been very sweet lately. Yesterday, I needed gas in my car (we were both driving, we usually carpool). When I got to the gas station, Ryan was already there waiting to pump my gas. Today he made my lunch for work and wrote a cute note in it. The other day I had a BAD day at work and had to go back at 7 for a PTA meeting and he picked me up from it with a flower and my favorite snack, candy corn. I love my husband!! And tonight, even though he wanted to do nothing, he went to Lowe's and bought paint for our exterior. We are painting the front and back door red and the shutters and garage black. Should go nicely with the brown siding. This brand of paint has the most noxious odor!!

My latest decorating challenge was fixing our master bedroom. Once we aquired our new 4-poster bed, I wanted to make everything match/look grown-up. I love having my big princess bed!

A rivalry at it's best! Ryan and his friend Justin (from Langley) are posing on our trip to the Admirals game on Saturday. That's Norfolk's minor league hockey team. That's as close as we can get to our favorite sport. We had a blast, and they won 6-5 in overtime. Exciting! We have to hate them a little though...because they are the farm team for the Chicago Blackhawks...our other rival.

I'm a Bree

Who are you? I thought I would be Bree...so maybe that changed my responses. Take the Desperate Housewives quiz! http://abc.go.com/primetime/desperate/quiz/index.html

These are the girls from my community group at church. There are boys too, but who needs them in the picture! The bottom 3 are in college, then Danielle teaches with me at Barron. We also have Monica, but I think she was off looking for cake!

Ryan and I went to a church hoedown. We did line dancing and square dancing. We roasted S'mores and had a fun time!!!

Whoops! This is the car, the other was my birthday celebration with Drake!

Here is the promised car picture!
