Last Week

So it's my last week at home with Becky (assuming no change in flights) and I'm trying to enjoy it as much as possible. We went to Wal-Mart today to stock up on toiletries and miscellaneous clothing, and then took a little drive around Fountain trying to find where are friends live. We never realized how much nice housing there is south of us, and we wish we did a little more looking before we chose--although we are extremely happy with our place.

We had a layout of our gear on Friday morning--talking 2 duffle bags, 1 rucksack, and a small backpack for personal items.--I'm pretty much ready to go, just have to pick up my ACH (Advanced Combat Helmet) cover which is getting the 4th ID patch sewn on it.

Thanks to everyone who has posted, e-mailed and kept us in their prayers--we appreciate all of it.

Thomas - yes, you sound ready with your physical gear, inspections, purchases etc. I am so glad there is yours and Becky's blog as a form of communication for all. I will also email you directly to your email, I assume that stays the same. Yes, the power of prayer is amazing. Being held in Someone else's hands greater than us is so wonderfully profound, soothing, helpful and amazing. Interesting that it is a comment that so many make! I love you, Mom
