Green, Green, Green

Dusty and I got to see each other this weekend before his sapper school starts in a couple weeks. We had a lot of fun just being with one another! Saturday, we painted the kitchen asparagus green! I love it! Our house is looking more like a home little by little and we are so blessed and excited to have it! Now all we need are visitors! Here are some pictures of us painting and then the finished product. We started on Saturday and finished on Sunday. You wouldn't think, but painting wears you out, or it did us. Or maybe it was because we were getting high from the fumes, haha jk! We did have a lot of fun doing the little project and are glad it is finished. Now time for the bedroom and living room :)! It was sad leaving him at the airport today, but I haven't bawled my eyes out like a few weeks ago in Atlanta and almost running over a girl that decided to walk when cars were going! It is sad to leave each other and to know that we won't see each other for a month and a couple weeks, but we can do it. I am busy with school and searching for a job, and Dusty will be busy getting ready for sapper school and then starting sapper school. All in all, we had a great weekend and thanks to his mom for helping us find a cheap flight. Actually, he had skymiles so we didn't pay anything...thank you Delta!

Getting back into the swing of things!

My first day of class was yesterday back at Georgia Southern University. I haven't been in school since Spring of 2007, so it was a little hard getting back into the swing of things! But, I have to say, the day went pretty well. I have 5 classes and 1 lab on Mondays, so I go from 9-5:40....long day, but I made it! I was glad to get home last night to see Layla, poor thing had been locked up in the house since 7:20 that morning! She was glad to see me, and to go to the bathroom! I have some tough classes this semester, but I know I can get through it, especially if I want to graduate! I am only taking classes Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and Mondays are the only really long days, so I am happy about that. I am also happy that I get to see Dusty on Friday!!! He is flying down here and staying until Monday...no school woo hoo! Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Christmas and moving in!

I hope that everyone had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
We left Missouri on the 21st in a huge Penske truck, with a trailor on the back for my car, and drove to Memphis, TN to see Dusty's parents, sister, and Grandmother for Christmas and had a really good time! Then on Christmas Eve, we drove from Memphis to Dalton, GA to see my family. We also had a really good time there too, seeing about 40 of our family members! Then on the 26th, we drove from Dalton to Pooler, GA, where our new townhouse is and moved in! We got there on the 26th around 5:30, immediately started unpacking, and didnt go to bed until 1ish, got up at 8 in the morning and were back at it! It is so good to be back in Georgia! I know that I am going to miss Missouri, especially the friends that Dusty and I made! In Missouri, we had been wearing sweaters and big jackets for a while now, and when we moved in on the 26th, it was 80 degrees down here....so hot and we so weren't ready for the chance in temp...too bad its not like that anymore, I think the cold followed us here! We are all moved in and are so excited! Dusty left today to go back to Missouri to finish his engineer school until the 14th. At the beginning of February, he will be starting sapper school! I am so proud of him for doing the training and now going on to the school! We will be away from each other for a couple months, but it is well worth it! Gooo Dusty! (haha) I love him and I know that he can do it!
