I saw a press release on Wednesday for Deployment Extension of Active Army soldiers both in Iraq now and those heading out. I confirmed with Geno and he is part of that extension. With this extension rather than him coming home at the end of Nov. beginning of Dec. we are looking at end of February beginning of March. Though this quite a disappointment for Geno, Derrick and I (Xavier’s still can’t comprehend) we know that this is something that has to be done no matter how difficult it is. Is it fair? No, but life always isn’t. 

On a MUCH happier note my wonderful husband sent me the most GORGEOUS flowers a woman can ask for!  I’ve included pictures at the end of this post.

The boys are doing well.  Soccer practice restarts tomorrow(weather permitting).  The weather has been crazy - as most of you know. 

This weekend we didn’t do much. We went to Raleigh yesterday so I could get some running shoes. We ended up staying in Raleigh for most of the day. We saw Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Xavier had a blast. If I got a nickel for every time he said “Whoa” it probably could have piad for the movie. It was a cute movie and I’m betting there will be a sequal.

The Best Buy guys came on Wednesday.  It took them all of 25minutes and they were out of here. I couldn’t believe it! I was hoping for the price they charge they could have at least sweated a little…nope, not the case. The good thing is, it’s set up and I’m taping the 23 or so hours of shows for Geno as I type this now.  When they showed me what they had to do I knew that it was worth the price - I NEVER would have figured it out!

Well, thanks so much for checking in.
