Recent Happenings & Annoucement

So I've had a post written for some time now, but haven't been able to post it. In fact, I haven't really been able to post much of anything, because this is all that has been on my mind.

If you have been following for a while, you know that Steve and I were waiting to find out where the Army would send us next. Well, we found out a little over a month ago that Steve recieved orders for Korea. This came as a huge shock to us. It pretty much knocked me flat on my butt. During this time, we were yanked back-and-forth with emotions. We found out that Sadie and I would not be able to travel with him. We even started looking at town homes in Georgia to be near family while he was gone. We've been married 3 1/2 short years and this will be Steve's third time overseas.

I didn't want to hit "post" let alone tell anyone but family in fear that it would make it all the more true. I was even mad at God and refused to go to church, because I felt like he wasn't listening to my prayers. I was wrong, so wrong.

This week, we finally received good news and a different set of orders. We are still going to Korea, but as a family. Thank you God. We will be in Waegwan, South Korea. This would never have been my first choice for an assignment, but to know that our family gets to stay together makes me the happiest person alive. We will be living there for two years.

During this time, I almost decided to quit my blog. I wanted to spend as much time with Steve before he left. But now that we are traveling to the other side of the world, I can't wait to bring you new and exciting posts I never would have dreamed of writing.

This is one a once in a lifetime chance to experience another culture and I cannot wait to immerse myself in the Korean world.
