There are a TON of pictures to show and so many words that I need to spill out about our vacation but I can’t seem to wrap my head around it all yet. I think my brain is still at the beach even though I am not. So… here’s a couple of “best shots” and…

Well we’re almost there – Daddy comes home this afternoon. I don’t know why I am making such a big deal out of this. I know other woman do this all the time or even for months at a time while their husbands serve our country around the world (hello, Tranny Head). But you know,…
