1 MORE WEEK!

At this time next week, I will be in my hotel room in Cape May, New Jersey, tossing and turning in bed trying to imagine our first meeting together in a LONG time! Will it be an exciting, jump in your arms kind of greeting? Or will it be that awkward "hey buddy how are ya" kind of greeting? When I talked to Greg on the phone last week, he said there are certain "rules". What are those rules you ask? Your guess is as good as mine! I assume a hug and an "appropriate" kiss will be okay. As much as I would like to jump in his arms and hug him as hard as I can, I think I will keep it "cool". And as much as I would like to imagine it like this...

....we all know it won't! But a girl can dream right?

This all reminds me of the day I saw Greg when he came home from Iraq. Standing in the airport with extreme anticipation of seeing him, as he walked down the stairs, I couldn't help but "speed walk" towards him. It was the best feeling in the world, especially since it had been at least 6 months since I had seen him. This picture just makes me all giddy inside ;)

I just found this video when he was home for a little bit before going back to Kentucky

Okay, no more cheesie-ness ;)


When I talked to Greg last week, he also said that we are going to need to talk about the rules on base and when he is in uniform. For example, when you are on base and the Flag is being raised or brought down, you must stop what you are doing, even if you are in a car, you have to stop. When there is a road march, you must get out of their way and you may not say anything to them or do anything to distract them. So I found this site called 11 "In Uniform" Rules Every Spouse Should Know. Pretty interesting and informative. Now I must remember to stand on his left at all times in case he needs to salute. Don't want to get a jab to the face! ;)
