The Army way of Life

the day before he left for basic

The first few months of Kaleb being in the Army were challenging for both of us. We were apart for 4 months which made us as strong as we are today. Every letter i got in the mail was amazing, it made me smile every time i read them. Trust me, getting to hear from your soldier is the best feeling in the world. Once he returned home from basic training, we got married. August 24 was one of the best days of my life(:  Our new life has now begun, the night after the wedding we got to see the Riverdogs play in downtown Charleston. The next day Kaleb had to leave for his first duty station, which is all the way across the country. The rest of August flew by, the movers came and I was planning the trip across the country. This month was challenging and I was ready to move. My mom and I took the journey across the country, that's another story. I got to Washington on my birthday and finally got to see my wonderful husband! The movers brought our stuff that weekend and also my mom returned home. Now we are ready to start our Washington life.
