Too Long, but Short Update

Last weekend I went to Okoboji, IA for my cousin Amy's wedding. I flew into Minneapolis and stayed the night at my brother's new house. GORGEOUS and in a cool funky part of town; perfect for them! They are dealing with a toilet that overflowed and flooded their main floor which was super sad and destroyed part of their new flooring! Yeah for homeowner's insurance. We drove with my parents to IA for the wedding and it was a blast. Dancing, talking, and family!

This week at work has pretty much flown by and I am super busy. We have Bible study on Monday night at our house, sign language classes on Tuesdays, small group on Wednesday...We are nuts but hey it is fun!

Best part of the week, Cory surprised me with symphony season tickets! He took me to the first one on Tuesday after dinner. Another blessing by the way. We order everything and then our waitress came and told us the man at the front when we walked in paid our tab! The man thought Cory was military and wanted to thank him for his service. We never saw or spoke with the man. How amazing! We are blessed!

GO BRONCOS!!

So I am super stoked that the Broncos are 2-0, even if an argument can be made fro 1-1. I know all the debates and this and that, but bottom line, 2-0!!!!!!!! YEAH!!! Also, I couldn't be happier that the Packers are also 2-0!! Now if the Cowboys win tomorrow we will be three for three this weekend!

Other than that, I am excited for the new blog my friends and I created called Kerb Your Appetite. You can check it out at www.kerbyourappetite.blogspot.com. Basically, four of us decided we are bad influences on each other with food and working out so instead of encouraging each other to eat crap, we want to encourage each other to eat well and work out. Check it out to see exactly how we are starting it. FYI: Kerb comes from the first letters of our names: Kendi, Ellen, Rebecca (Becky but the "R" is more convenient) and Brittney. It should be awesome to be able to help each other.

I leave Thursday for Iowa because my cousin is getting married on Saturday. I can't wait to see my family but bummed Cory won't be there. Can't always get what I want right! I will post pictures when I get back!

Now, I gotta go watch my DVR because I can't miss Army Wives!

Better than Lasts...

I promise this is a better post than the last one. I can tell you a number of reasons why.

1. Cory told me today he has one date/month planned from September to May!!
2. Despite my effort to not hear a future date of Cory's transfer, his squadron commander stopped me in the building they all work and told me September 12th. I realize that the man has been setting those dates that have passed over and over but never has he told me to MY face. Therefore, I will trust one more time.
3. It's Friday and I get to hang out with the Lycans and the Donatells (who are visiting from Colorado).
4. I love reading Genesis!
5. I organized our office supply closet that came in today. Sick I know but it looks awesome!!

Have a great weekend!!

3 Day Rainy Weekend!

So I know I live in Montana and I know that it is September but from 80 to one day and the 40s the next...AHHH! Add to it that it snowed here on June 11 and my verdict is that summer is way too short in Montana!! Not only was it cold but it rained all day Sunday and Monday.

Also, to add to the frustrated state, I just found out that Cory is still POSTING for at least one more tour. In case you don't know the history, we were told he would be switched early summer, then July 15th, then no later than August, and now at least one more post into September. I no longer trust what anyone tells us in the Air Force.

That said, hopefully next post will be more uplifting...
