We are still in North Carolina. There is still no word on when the Marine is leaving. Things here are ridiculously unorganized at least that's how it appears from where I'm sitting.
We've been here since early Saturday morning. Friday we headed up to Small Town, South Carolina and spent the night with Mr. Perfect's parents. Not too bad a trip. I managed to stay awake the entire 3 hour drive which is HUGE. Usually I'm the worst road tripper ever. Start driving = start sleeping to this girl.
We hit the road early on Saturday morning to get up to NC. We were told that the Marine would more than likely be heading out sometime late Saturday night or early Sunday morning. That did not happen.
It's been nice though just hanging out up here with the fam. My parents have their camper down here that they're staying in, so we've spent night watching movies and just hanging out. The Marine has a dog that's going overseas with him (part of a group), and we've gotten to go see him work the dog and stuff. We've even managed to help out with their care and walk a few of them (almost killed me). I've got a few pics that I'll put up once I get home.
Anyway. His departure date is now looking like sometime next week. Of course Mr. Perfect and I cannot get back up here. I'm pretty bummed that it looks like I won't actually get to see him off, but at least we had these few days with him. Hopefully they'll get whatever they're waiting on taken care of soon and these boys will know when they're headed out.
Headed home in a few hours. Guess I'll catch up on what you ladies have been up to when I get back to 'ol Georgia.

Hey girl! I have been MIA, so first I wanted to give you and Mr. Perfect a huge congratulations on your baby news! That is such an awesome blessing and I am so happy for y'all. I don't know if I had mentioned before, but my mom had 7 miscarriages, "unexplained infertility" and lots of complications, so she always called me her miracle baby. I'm really happy that you're pregnant! And I am so very grateful for the service your brother is giving to our country-your family is in my prayers. Have a great week!
