Tears, Tears, and More Tears

Well, we officially have 1 month down for this deployment. Lance has been stateside in IN since October training. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be because I knew I would be seeing him at Thanksgiving.

We picked him up Wednesday in Charleston, WV and spent Thanksgiving at Lance's parents. It was so great seeing him and getting to spend time with him! We got to do a little Christmas shopping for the kids and had a mini Christmas for him before he left. He enjoyed one day of hunting and lots of good food! It went by too fast. We took him back to the airport on Saturday. Wow, that was tough! Taylor and I cried so hard. I think I was crying harder, because she knew she was saying goodbye to her Daddy for a while. It does surprise me though, that she still hasn't asked when he is coming back.....I am sure she will ask soon.

So Happy to See Daddy!

We headed home, back to NC today. It was great getting back home and turning on our Christmas tree and just spending quality time...three three of us. Lance leaves to Egypt this week. Please pray for a safe trip and arrival.
