and our new base is.....

Grand Forks AFB in North Dakota! 
Was this our first choice? No, was it even on the list? NOPE! But it is where we are being placed and it is where we will call home for three years come August.  

What do I know about this place? 
It floods and its cold.
2/3 of the time its snowing in the winter.
It gets in the negatives. 
Its close to Canada. 
I know this isn't a place that we were hoping for, I know that we are moving to a place close to Minneapolis and that we're putting in to possibly swap to a different base. 


I wont lie when I say I'm nervous, scared and possibly going to freeze my butt off. I'm excited too.. we're going to be away from family, and we'll be going on many adventures. I'll be possibly starting school there, maybe buying a house? I don't know! But whatever it is, we will figure it out. 
But until we know for sure (orders are printed) we will assume this is our new home.

Its May!


Hellllllooooooooo May! 
This is an exciting month around this house, why? Oh because this is the month we get ORDERS! -supposedly- and A's mom is coming to visit.. plus I get to start shopping for my trip to Georgia. 

Anyone have any ideas? 
I thought these two are cute, the shorter one for graduation with some cute gladiator sandals and a long necklace.. the longer one for traveling or dinner on our first night? Who knows! 

Its starting to get busy here, I'm looking at that blog everyday in May.. its gonna be hard... but with my new schedule things seem to be kind of on the right track.. I'm up early, home to take bru out and off to the gym. The only downside being that they completely messed up my days off and I'm now trying to fix it. But for now I'll just leave you all with me being incredibly stressed, planning, and just waiting for orders ... I hate this waiting game!
