Our 1st R&R

HE'S HOME!!! This is just an R&R, but I'll TAKE IT! It's fantastic having him here to warm his side of the bed, and give me his famous smooches! Our reunion has been bliss. I was so worked up before he came home, my tummy in knots. I wasn't sure what to expect. This is our first deployment as many of you know. Literally within moments of that first off the plane kiss everything felt like HOME again. As if he never even left! We were laughing and talking of our past memories/the ones we would be making, and he was opening up about his "war" stories. I've loved getting to know all the characters he serves with by listening to his stories as he smiles thinking of his brothers back in the 'litter box'. We even left for a special trip to chicago the next morning and spent a couple of uninterupted days just to ourselves. He suprised me one night with a romantic carriage ride thru the city and some deep dish Chicago pizza, and a shopping spree at HERSHEY! I'm a blessed girl! I have posted a few photos to share :) I'll be sure to catch you all up on more as it comes, but for now I'm off.... to enjoy my sweet hero of a prince. I'm not sure why I had my self so worried about our reunion, because so far it has been everything a girl could wish for! God Bless AMERICA!!!
