Well... unfortunately... we got the news we have been waiting on today.  Rob's leave got denied by the Army.  (Just another joy of being attached at the hip to the military.)  So I get to come home to Kansas in December by myself.  Not what I was hoping for.  At all.  But sometimes you don't get what you want.  (...or all the time.)  Sucks big time, but we will all survive.  Just means I will be in KS/MO for 8 days versus the planned 14.  On a positive note we DID get the airplane tickets bought so that I can go home.  So OFFICIALLY I will be home December 19th to December 28th.  Hopefully I will get a chance to take a day trip down to Springfield and see Rob's family (cause they were informed we would be there.. and I want to see them!) but at this point some decisions still need to be made.  Now, I am just ready for December to get here.  Get excited folks!

Another upside is that the baby (aka dog) will not be home by himself.  Which makes me happy... even though I have to sacrifice for it.  Just means the boys will have 8 days together to bond and what not... pray for good weather yall.

That is all.
