Alaska here we come!!

So for those of you who haven't heard we are heading to Alaska in December. Tj re-enlisted for 6 more years. We will be in Ft.Richardson. It is going to be very different but cool to see another part of our country. Tj will most likely deploy in march after we get there so I'm not looking forward to that part but the move will help him advance. I do have some family there so that part will be nice. TJ is doing really good in the Army some of his NCOs have told him the Army needs more soldiers like him. He is very dedicated to the Army and his country We are very proud of him and all the he does for our family.

I'm not good at this

So I have not been very good about posting blogs. So much has been happening it has been crazy. Life gets a hold of you and where does the time go. I will be putting up some new pics this week. Alot has gone on we went home in April, getting ready for the baby, and just life. This last weekend we went to Panama City Beach for a marriage retreat. Takoa went with us the Army provided everything we needed it was a blast so there will be pics from that soon. We have 3 weeks until the baby is due I have been wishing she would come now but you know they come when they are ready. But we have been busy getting ready. WOW so much has happened... TJ signed up for 6 more years so we are heading to Alaska in December. It will be a good change for us. Its cool to see so many different places I'm not looking forward to the move and all that comes with it. But I will have some family up there with me so that will be nice. Well check back for more pics and more updates this week as I try to get caught up with it all
