It's That Time of Year Again...

We have moved! Yes, you read that right. We are no longer in Savannah at Fort Stewart. We have moved to Fort Benning, GA (Columbus)...closer to both Dalton and Memphis! Dusty will start the Captains Career Course May 15. It lasts approximately 6 months. Yes you read that right too...we will only be in Columbus for 6 months before packing up and moving to Fort Bragg, North Carolina (Fayetteville).

I will be between Columbus and Savannah until the middle of June. I am finishing the school year up with my parapro job at the elementary school in Savannah and will visit on the weekends.

We house hunted a couple weeks ago in Columbus for about 5 hours and finally settled on the house we are in. We love it! Since being married, we have lived in a 15X8 in Summerland Key, FL; a duplex on post at Ft. Benning with Greg and James; another duplex on post at Ft. Leonard Wood (Missouri); a townhouse in Pooler, GA; and a 700 square foot apartment in Savannah for 4 months...so needless to say, we are ecstatic to have our OWN house, sharing NO walls with anyone, having our OWN backyard to run around in, throw the ball to the dogs (well just Paisley), sunbathe, and cook out. It has been great! I think we might be getting spoiled!


We moved in on Saturday and worked pretty hard moving in and setting things up with the help of about 4 other couples. I wanted to share the photos of the new house with you. We are really enjoying it!!!

We have already had company! My sister's husband, Beau Bray, and their 9 month old baby Branton, came for a quick visit Wednesday night to Thursday evening. While Beau went to the golf course Thursday morning for his golf lesson, Dusty and I put Branton in the stroller and went for a walk around the park near our house. It's so nice to be close to it. We walked about a mile, then let Branton swing and bounce on the little bouncer things (sorry, I cannot think of what they are really called). We shopped, ate BBQ, had frozen yogurt for dessert, and played in the backyard. We had a really nice visit with them.


Tomorrow, we are heading to the family beach house with Danny and Liz (Dusty's parents) for the weekend. I am currently on spring break and will go back to Savannah on Monday. Dusty starts work on Tuesday. Here are some pictures of the house and Branton. Hope they all fit! Enjoy!!!
