visit my family more

I’m going to be going home for about 6-8 months while my hubby is out of town. I’m super excited! I get to spend time with my family! And it’ll be good for me since I won’t have Matt home to talk with and spend time with. YAH!!!

but this trip will be to recover from a surgery on my ankle. It’s my 3rd one in 3 years. =[ But I get to visit with the family from the 28th of Feb to the 8th of March. Pretty good time I think. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone.

We’ll be going to OK first for about 4 days then heading to AL for about 10 days. I’m so excited, plus we’re gonna try and get the visitation changed while we’re there. Hopefully SHE won’t give us much trouble with it. I’m so glad we get to see everyone in one one trip. Stopping at Matt’s moms on the way down to see his dad. It’s handy having the family in 2 states now instead of 3. Although it would be ideal to have them all in 1 but I guess you’ll have that.

In October Matt and I will be taking a trip to Alabama to see Dawson and the rest of the family for about a week. Then I’ll head to Oklahoma and he’ll stay in AL for a bit longer. It’s been a while since he’s seen his family and he needs time with his son. I’m going to be going to OK only for the fact that my sister is getting married. Otherwise I would stay with Matt and Dawson. I miss my boy. =( I’m still excited though that we get to see the whole family in one shot.

again soon. But this is a trip I really don’t want to make. My Gpa may be having open heart surgery and he’s old and his heart isn’t as strong as it used to be so this may be a bad trip. I’m really scared but all I can do is pray and place it all in His hands.

with my family. I love going out to visit them and seeing how much my home town has changed over the years. Things develop and change so quicky, even over the six months since I’ve last been. Amazing!

I’m so excited! We’re going home. And I’m so glad that Matt’s going with me. But he’s gonna be going underway the day after we get back, so that sucks. But it’s only for a couple days. It’ll give me time to get us unpacked and get the laundry done, so bonus there. :-) Woohoo! Only one day and a W/U!

until the trip home. I’m excited Matt gets to go with me this time. The family hasn’t seen him since the wedding in Dec 06. But I’m kinda bummed because I don’t think I’ll get to see my buddy David. It’s been 2 years since I saw him last and that was only for a few minutes when he stopped by. Guess that happens though.

April 17th-21st! Family here I come. Already cleared with the boss and my plane ticket has been paid for. 22 days and counting!

to go home again sometime in March or April. Matt will be out to sea so I think it will do my mind some good to have something to look forward to while he’s gone. Other than counting down the days until he comes home. That always gets me really depressed. So I think that’s a good thing to go for. Maybe I’ll surprise the whole family and get my cuz to pick me up at the airport. We’ll see how that goes. I could always get my dad to help me again. We pulled that once. My mom screamed and cried. It was great. LOL I love surprises. It’s so much fun.
