The Road Trip Continued....

Back on the road! After saying goodbye to the Wards in Clovis we headed to Wichita Falls, TX to see some more Air Force friends! The weather cooperated and it was a nice drive. The only trace of the bad weather was ice on all the trees. It reminded me a lot of driving the back roads to Billings from Laurel back in MT. After 6 hrs. we finally arrived just in time for a fabulous home cooked meal! The Norwoods are awesome cooks and all their food is mouth watering! It was awesome to meet their little girl and the kids had so much fun playing with her. They also didn't mind all her toys! :) We were able to spend a whole day with them and had such a great time. It made us wish Wichita Falls was our final destination. Unfortunately we had to continue on and we headed the next morning to San Antonio, TX. We once again had 6 more hours on good roads. We were lucky enough to have a wonderful friend already there when we arrived. Leroy and his family were stationed with us back at Hill. He was there by himself and had an apartment right off base. He helped us reserve one so when we arrived we just had to unload! Thankfully he was also nice enough to help us unload the whole trailer so we could have a night on our own beds! The apartment complex is decent and we can't complain with the new carpet that was just installed. We were quickly overwhelmed by all the bags & boxes. We have been living like this for the last 5 weeks and it was just getting OLD! After a good nights sleep we spent the next day busy avoiding staying in the apartment and setting it up! Leroy showed up after work and finally got us kicked into gear! Thank you Leroy for being such a great friend and really helping us out! I won't lie I had a very hard time adjusting to our new life! It is so hard to leave everything and start all over again or to just get through the next 4 months. The reality is all the little time periods & obstacles equal our life. Once we get through them all life on earth is over. So with some encouraging words from my FABULOUS husband and a little time with God I realized sitting around wishing it was all different wasn't going to help. Home is truly where your husband & kids are! or HOME is where the Air Force takes YOU! Ready for Sun Helping Daddy Set up Shop Olivia, Sawyer, & Fiona The Norwoods Trees on the way to Wichita Falls
