Wednesday was our last day at Fort Bragg. Some days, it feels like we just moved here. Between June 2010 and June 2013, I’ve had three jobs, we got engaged, we dealt with a year-long deployment, we got married, we had a wedding, and we’ve managed to survive living with three other men. So enjoy some then and now photos. Our house then. And now. Across the street then. And now…. View Post »
Our Army moving announcements
We’ve decided to send out moving announcements so that people have our new address. I know we can do email, but I like the personal touch of mail. I found some cute designs. I think this will be the selection for this move, and I’ll print them out as postcards. And this will be for our post-course announcement. It doubles as a Christmas card which is appropriate because Mac’s course… View Post »

We even partook in the church tour (more like an info session) afterwards. The pew where George Washington sat. We walked a few blocks… View Post »
Sunday Social: pet peeves
1. What is your biggest driving pet peeve? People who don’t drive the speed limit. Oh, so you maintained a speed of 45 through a 55 zone and now into a 35 zone. Cool. 2. Biggest Blogging pet peeve? People who join blog hops and don’t look at any other blogs. You have to do some work to get more followers. 3. Biggest general pet peeve? I could write a… View Post »
Charleston, day 3
Our final day in Charleston was still busy. We made reservations to tour the H.L. Hunley, the first submarine used in combat to sink an enemy ship. If y’all go to Charleston, definitely check this out. It’s still being researched and actively repaired. Again, my artillery husband proved knowledgeable. The guide stated that they weren’t really sure why the Hunley’s torpedo had a copper casing. Mac pointed out that copper… View Post »
