Outprocessing Hawaii
I realize you can't write much beneath those slide show pics, but even though some words are cut off, I'm sure you'll get the idea. John the kids and I flew back to Hawaii space A out of Travis AFB CA. It was a 16 hr road trip down and then a flight over on a C-5 (military's biggest plane). For those of you who don't know...space A is usally a cargo plane, but free :) It was a last minute decision to go and I'm so glad we did. It was, of course, random. Staying different, and weird places, and we waited alot for John to get outprocessing done, in the van our good friend, Theresa, loaned us (thank goodness). But, we had alot of fun times and were able to stay in an Army beach cabin on Wiania Army Rec. and downtown Waikiki, which was awesome! We took a military contract commercial flight back. Which was by far the nicest flight I have ever had, and there were only 12 of us! We then pulled an all-nighter driving back, and I only freaked out on John once, for missing a Starbucks early morning, while he was smoking a cigar, watching the sunrise. Ya, we're kind-of weird, but we sure have good times! Increadible and a very blessed trip!

What has John been up to these days?
Oops, has it been a month:( !
OK, I guess I didn't realize how much I posted for John while he was deployed, since now that he's back, I'm doing horribly! Well, John is still in Hawaii getting outprocessed, but will be back permanetly next week! He was sad to have to turn in his military ID yesterday for a temp and was sworn into the reserves yesterday. It's all sort of weird and sad for us, but we know it's God's plan and therefore we are happy to be doing this.
Upcoming for us....a summer with LOTS of yard work, and John will be finding a new job, to accomplany his school work that will be starting in late Aug. A whole new chapter for us, but I think anything sounds great, as long as we're all together! For me, I'm looking forward to family and friends this summer! Can't wait to have alot of BBQ's in the sun and many more adventures. I also have about 20-25 more lbs of baby weight to get rid of....run, run, run! I gained a total of 60 this pregnancy...yikes!, but 40 of it is already gone, so that's a good start!
That's the skinny on us. Hopefully I will be keeping you better informed :)
