well, all the talk is finally going in motion. we have taken off! as i write this we are in a hotel in farmington new mexico. my first venture out of utah, and we stop in farmington. go figure!! i always said i'd love to move to new mexico, but now that we're here, i think i'll change my mind. it's a lot different than i expected. i'm sure there are better parts, but i'll believe it when i see it.
so, we left our dear friends this morning to set off. we are planning on three days. we'll take our time seeing it is so long for the girls. plus, we won't feel rushed to get there by a certain time, and there is an extremely high chance someone will be sick. ainnsley was the one this morning. poor thing. we were on the side of the road just before price cleaning everything with bottled water and forcing gravol down her throat. lovely. let's hope for a better couple of days.
with all that has happened in fort hood these last couple of days, it will be very interesting to arrive during this trial. i hope i can protect my girls from the hate that i'm sure will be said, but know that i can't for long. it is a really scary world we live in, and i was foolish to think that we would be safe on base. it made me realize that nowhere is truely safe. what i can keep safe is my family values that i hope and pray that my girls will understand and cherish their whole lives. hey, one can hope. i am so thankful to be together with brad again, and it has made our family values stronger than ever.
i always say i will be better at posting, but we actually have something going on now, so there is more to say. i will miss utah and all the friends that i have made over the years. i'm so grateful for this day in age where it is so easy to stay in touch. it's wonderful.
so, here's to being an army strong family for real now!! hooah!!!
