Could it Get any More Extreme?

This next month Andy will be spending all of his time at the National Training Center (NTC) in Fort Irwin, CA. I don't think I have publicly announced it, but Andy will probably be deploying to Iraq next October 2009 and NTC is a month long training in preparation for the deployment. Needless to say I am not excited about either trip. Unfortunately this means we won't be able to spend Thanksgiving together this year or next. Luckily I will be spending a lot of time with my family, and hopefully that will distract me from the fact that my husband is far away. Andy isn't super excited for the trip either, but this will make our Christmas all the sweeter! SO...in honor of our upcoming trips I thought I would show you what we have to look forward too:

This is where we currently live:
Although the fall weather here is beautiful, we are still in the 80s. Hopefully sometime this week it will drop below 75. I only wish!

This is where Andy will be for the next month:
Welcome to the desert! Hopefully the weather will be a little mild, after all it will be November!

And lastly, this is where I will be for the next month:
BURRRRRRRRRRRR! It makes me cold just looking at it!
