Still Alive....

We are still alive here. I thought I should check in just in case anyone was wondering. Most of you know that my parents came to visit so I have been too busy to get on the computer much.

Dad called last week on Wednesday evening and asked if we wanted some company. He said they were leaving Thursday at noon. So on Friday evening they arrived. It was a short visit because they left yesterday morning to go back home. It was quick because Dad had some time off work but he has to be back to work next week, Monday I think.

But now they are gone. So are things calming down now? No. Luke should be home on Wednesday. I have to finish my Christmas shopping and have everything ready before he comes home. I am trying not to get all stressed out. I almost don't believe he will actually be here so soon. He has been gone for 7 1/2 months. I really am afraid to believe he is actually coming. I probably won't be 100% sure until he calls me from the Dallas airport. It is kind of hard to trust the army after they extend a deployment a month away from when you should be home. That really makes you try not to get your hopes up anymore.... But I have to plan on Wednesday for now.

Now I need to get out of here. Have a book fair to go to and some things I have to pick up and shopping to do. I still have not gotten the picture taken for our Christmas card. Hope to do that this afternoon...

I love Christmas. I love Christmas. I love Christmas. Really, I do......
