Its been awhile...


Spring is almost over and it's really warming up here. School is coming to an end for Zachary and Christian. Its hard to believe Z will be in 8th grade next year and C will be in 4th. We are looking forward to our trip to Florida and Pittsburgh!

On the military front, something huge and exciting has happened. I went for a TDRL review in January. I just got my letter telling me I'm being released from the TDRL...and that as of 04 June 2012...I am permanently RETIRED! !! WOW.
On a sweet note, last night I went in to tuck the babies in and Thomas just completely melted my heart. He got up in his bed, gave me a huge hug, and said "you make my heart happy, Mommy."

I love that kid!!!

Christian had two field trips, one to a mine and one to an art festival...he came home as a tiger!

Chasie is 3 and he's good at it!! But he is such a sweetheart!!

Bye for now, but I want to wish my lil sis a very happy birthday! ! Happy Birthday old lady!

XOXO, Leanne

I enlisted in January of 2000 and left for Basic Training in April of that same year. My life was forever changed. I've lost most of my friends from my life "before", but what I've gained is irreplaceable. Now I sit here, medically retired for almost 3 years and I laugh at how different life is as a dependant than how it was as an Active Duty member. My husband has been serving our wonderful country for over 14 years and I now have the privilege to be an Air Force wife. For those that knew me before this transition, you know how much I truly loved my job (even on days when I swore I hated it), and wh...

Friendships

Yesterday was quite of an emotional roller coaster for me. Through my time in the Air Force I met some amazing people. Amazing doesn't quite sum it up, but it's the best I can come up with for now. My journey of course started in Basic Training, but my journey with military friendships started there as well. In my flight, there was this small annoying girl. I couldn't stand her. She seemed spoiled and I honestly wondered what in the heck she was doing there. Throughout our 6 weeks, we stayed cordial, but that's it. I was not there to make friends, I was there to get the hell out of there. Period. At the end of those 6 weeks, they put us on buses and planes and sent us to our Technical Schools. That small annoying girl was on MY bus. The road trip from San Antonio to Wichita Falls is not short. Believe it or not, that small annoying girl was actually pretty damn cool. We spent every day together in my 3 1/2 months at Tech School. We've stayed in touch ...
