Meeting the Dad

So as you know, Michael and I will have been together 2 1/2 years next week! :) Last week he got in touch with his Dad and they talked for a long time. Apparently it was his Grandpa's birthday so it would work out just great if we came to visit and have me meet his family. It was nice to finally have met all of his family now! We got to spend a lot of time together, just the two of us, without worrying about school, army, or having to do things for both of our families. We also got to spend a lot of time reflecting and planning, it was fun! He was also able to show me places and things from his childhood which was great to finally get to see.

Please pray for him though because he's having a rough time at Fort Hood and beginning to get discouraged!

I came back from my mini vacation and got to catch up with my roommate! We've been getting a lot of roommate bonding time here lately and we are starting to talk about maybe getting an apartment together next year off campus! I'm soo excited about possibly having my own room/bathroom and having a kitchen to cook in and living room to separate work from sleep!

I'm pretty down right now because it is probably going to be at least another 2 weeks before I see Michael again...I really am just ready to get college and the army over with at this point!
