There's No Place Like Home



Drew deployed to Afghanistan on December 19th, 2011 to meet up with the rest of the men and women of 1-13 Cav.  We were so blessed that Drew got to stay behind in the US to see Carson come into this world on November 18, 2011.  Minutes after saying goodbye to Drew, Carson and I made the long journey from El Paso (where we were stationed at Fort Bliss) to Memphis to live with my parents until daddy comes home around late July/early August.  We are loving being back in Germantown surrounded by our friends and family who love and support us so much.  So blessed & so thankful!

(Carson skyping with Drew)

We Skype with Drew almost everyday (depending on how well his internet is working that day). Technology has really eased this transition for us, knowing Drew can watch Carson grow & I get to catch a glimpse of my sweet hubby! This first month and a half of Drew being away has seemed to creep by. But once the season changes and spring gets here, I know August won't seem so far away.  We miss daddy so much, and are so proud of him!!!

Drew's care package staples:
- sour patch kids
- skittles
- startburst
- Doritos
- Zapps potato chips
- Smartfood white cheddar popcorn
- newspapers/magazines
