As overjoyed as I am to have my husband home safe again I want to also remember those who paid the ultimate price for our freedoms. My husband lost 5 good friends on this tour. We will miss you guys...and we will never forget.
Together At Last!
Hello again lovely blog friends!!! I just want to say how thankful I am for all of your lovely comments, positive thoughts, prayers, and support while my soldier was serving in Afghanistan...and I have some VERY exciting news to report!!!! Nathaniel made it home safely to me on June 1st!!! I can't describe to anyone what the past 7 months have been like (unless of course you have been through this too). It's truly the hardest thing I have gone through. Worrying everyday and waiting and hoping not to get a knock on the door. I can't tell you how many times a door-to-door salesperson came to my front door and caused my heart to sink to the pit of my stomach. I think I kind of went into a "mental zone" in order to cope and get by....but it worked and although I took 7 months off of doing the things I usually love, I'm happy to say life is feeling great again! Here are some pictures of our reunion....the best feeling!!! Bear in mind it was 4am and I was fighting strep throat (yes...great timing to get sick hey?)...but I wasn't going to let that stop me from smiling ear to ear!!!

I'm so happy for you both. You looked so beautiful, he must have thanked his lucky stars to finally come home to you!
Very glad your husband made it home safe. Thank you also to you and your husband for the job you do daily to protect our freedoms. You are appreciated and admired!

Thanks everyone :D I am just bursting with joy right now! I've dreamed of this time for the past 7 months and it's finally here! You guys all seriously rock for still being my blog friends lol! I was kinda worried I might have lost some since I was on a blogging hiatus! Glad to be back!
As a former military wife (stationed in Edmonton), I can honestly share your happiness. I love hearing stories of happy homecomings!!!!
