This may be the last post I will be able to do for a week or so. We have been very busy the last week and it's only getting worse. There are a lot of exciting things that have happened though and I thought I would share...
First, and most exciting...Andy was promoted to Captain! He flew to Kentucky last week to do some out-processing before we move, and to his surprise they promoted him while he was there. We knew he was up for promotion, but weren't expecting it until July..so this was a pleasant surprise. I am so proud of him!! He definitely deserves this promotion and I couldn't be happier. I will be sure to post a picture when I have the chance!
Secondly, we got our family pictures taken! We haven't been able to see them yet, but I can't wait to. If you live in southeastern Idaho and are looking for a photographer you definitely need to look up Chantri. She is super! http://www.chantrikeelephotography.com/
Other exciting news, we finally purchased a new sofa! We both wanted something with a little more sitting room and purchased this beauty...
Ours is a little darker in color, but I love it. Needless to say I have spent A LOT of time buying fabric for pillows and even got fabric for curtains today. Can't wait to get going.
How will I make all these pillows and curtains you ask?? For a belated birthday and mothers day gift Andy got me a sewing machine! I have been using my mom's for the past year and wanted one of my own...I am excited to use it!
The move is upon us and we will be making the trek this week. Andy left today and Noah and I will leave this week as well. It is definitely a bitter sweet experience. We will miss being with our family but are really looking forward to being together again. Thanks to all of you for your encouraging words and support! Next post I promise more pictures.
Until then! Happy Memorial day and my special THANKS to all the men and women who serve our country. Especially to my own sweet husband.
