Here we go again...

Well it is beginning to sink in after these weeks of not knowing and thinking maybe we would dodge the bullet it is happening. Corby has been called up to go to Afghanistan. He will train here for a month and then he goes to Fort Lewis Washington,that is the state of Washington. He will be there a couple of months and then off to Afghanistan. He will be back March of 2009. I have been praying for the right thing to happen and I am sure this is the right time for our family it still doesn't change the fact that I will be lonely. I am not sure if this is the right venue for me to whine and be honest or if I should just put a brave face on it all the time. Well today has been hard it is grey outside and I don't feel real good and so that makes it worse. I need to give myself time to process and not be hard on myself. I have the most wonderful friends and ward and I shall not want for anything I will just miss my precious husband who is everything to me. I am so blessed and spoiled he is always so good to me and I hate it when he is gone too long. I do however believe in what he is doing and know how much he loves doing it. I will support him and start thinking about all the things I will do to make the time go faster. I am surrounded by such wonderful people and I am grateful for their words of support that I have already recieved. Corby starts out at Camp Williams on tuesday.

The Ultimate Gift...

We rented the Ultimate gift and watched it tonight Abby Meg and I. We all really enjoyed it. Gave us so much to think about. It came highly recommended and now we in turn are going to recommend it. This holiday we also watched Hairspray and The new Harry Potter. I think I liked this Harry the best. Still two more shows to go for Harry I wonder if they will continue to be so good.I am still not sure what I thought about Hairspray great singing and dancing good message I just couldn't forget that John Travolta was the mother. Meg and Jesse started back to school today and Cooper tomorrow I got all the christmas stuff put away so I feel like I accomplished something. Such a beautiful day to be alive I love living in Draper and just being able to walk out the back door and walk for miles. Tomorrow will be a great day too because Angie is going to have her baby I am so excited for her.
