Here's a bit of an update. My computer is acting up so I am not able to download any new pictures.
I went to Greece for the last time and stayed for a week. It was a very relaxing trip. Brian worked while I finished up the Twilight Saga. It rained mostly so we stayed mostly indoors. I was fine with that. Just being with Brian made me ever so happy. I did drive to VA to catch the hop and it was pretty nice driving alone. I didn't stop but for gas and restroom breaks. I listened to the audio book Marley and Me. It was a pretty good book. I haven't seen the movie, but I think it is very different for the most part. I gathered that from some of the previews I've seen.
The trip to Greece went very smooth and I was just so thankful to see Brian when I got there. He had to work pretty much everyday so I stayed home and read the rest of Eclipse and started on Breaking Dawn. It was great to be lazy!! I think we all deserve to be lazy every now and then. Brian and I did some shopping, but most of the places were still closed or closed at odd hours. One time we went down town and everything closed at 6 pm. This was a Saturday. They usually close things at 3 during the week and reopen at 6 then close at 10. They do not do that on the weekend. We had a couple of sunny days, but not warm enough to go to the beach. Now I am back to the normal life. This is good news because in 3 weeks BRIAN WILL BE HOME!! I am so glad. It has been too long, a year is too long. He should be home around the 12th of April. It works out because the kids will be out for Spring Break. Since I'm done reading all the Twilight books I am back to just wondering around finding things to do. I must say that I have become a big time fan and will most likely read those books over and over. I also bought the movie. I know it's not going to be as good as the book, but it's something to enjoy. Although I promised Brian that I will not watch it until he comes home. I'll look forward to watching it with him.
Katrina and Carter are thrilled that Brian is coming home. They can't wait. They are both doing extremely well in school. I have put Carter on a low sugar diet, because I am doing a test. It has really helped calm him down. Although I just found out that some of the things I bought have Splenda in them so they got put in the garbage. I read up on it and do not want to chance putting any kind of chlorine in our bodies. I am even throwing away my favorite gum because it has sucralose in it. Why are good things bad?? I don't understand!! Carter has just been bouncing off the walls so I decided to take him off of sugar to test him. It really has helped him focus more at home.
Katrina thinks she is an adult. She asked me why adults get more things than kids. I am not sure why she cares. I bought a shirt one day and she noticed right away that it was new. Well she freaked out and said "why don't you buy me anything". It is sad when I have to hide new things from my daughter. I told her to get a job. It is really frustrating to me that she is concerned about what I have. I just keep reminding her that she is 8 and she needs to be 8 and be happy. Life is too short to waste it on things like that. Other than that she is doing great. She is ready to move to a new place and have her daddy home for good. Well at least till he has to leave again, but won't be as long. Thank GOODNESS! I think this about sums up everything.
Oh Brian does have his BIG test coming up on Wednesday for Tech Sergeant. It will help us so much when he makes it.
When we get the computer fixed I will update our pictures.

Our kitty Neela races me to the bedroom to get her belly rubbed. This a routine thing for her and she will softly make a noise until she gets her belly rubbed. It's quite funny.

Yeah he is almost done! I am glad your year is about up. Seperation is never fun, but you did get some awesome vacations out of it!
I am so glad that the year is almost done. I know that you will be glad to have a home back again and to feel like a normal family, but we are going to miss you guys sooooooooooooooooo much. The summer will not be the same without ya, but we definatly want to come to North Carolina to visit.
I'm glad you had fun with Brian in Greece! Hey why don't you come over to my house on Thursday, we are having the book club. Come and socialize! @ 9:30am.
That is great that Brian is coming home soon. Please let us know when he passes his test. I am sure he will do great. London is the same way about things. No so much what I get, but what ever the boys have she has to have as well. I took Jacob to the Doctor and he got a sticker, and London freaked out because I did not get her one. I have been trying to explain that she has things that other people don't and other people get things that she does not have. Just share and then she will get to play with everything. That does not work with your clothes though. Wish Brian luck for us.
It will be so great to be together at last and to just have a complete family. Marie, I sure did get some awesome vacations. There were good things that came out it. Jessie, we will miss summers with you too. I just hope Brian figures it out and can get all the pictures back. Thanks for spending time with me at the park. Most definitly come visit. Monique, I have voice on Thursdays. I know I would love to come. I'm sorry!! Jennifer, thanks. All I have to say is "GIRLS". I'll let Brian know, thank you.
