...........hooray!!!!
Some of you may remember that my daughter Kristen was married last summer to a military man. The came home last August for the wedding. Her husband Chris is in the Air Force and has been stationed in Anchorage, Alaska for the last 3 years. Kristen has been there with him for the last year and a half...give or take a few months.
In just about 4 hours, Kristen will be coming home again......Chris will arrive in about a week, after he finishes up settling things in Alaska. I am very excited to see her, but oh what an uproar we will have in my house until Chris arrives. What will be the cause of the uproar? No, not Kristen, but what Kristen is bringing along with her. She will be accompanied with her 1 year old lab-rotteweiler-chow mix "baby", Guinness. I can just about imagine how crazy (and LOUD) my 3 yorkie babies will be when they see him. I'm a bit paranoid at how this is going to work, but it is just temporary until Chris arrives and Guinness goes to stay at the other gramma's
house. I've already told Kristen that we're not going to take any chances with these dogs together.....she swears that Guiness is going to be afraid of my yorkies. We will see.
But, Kristen being home will make it all worth while
. Unfortunately their stay will only be temporary also
; about 5-6 weeks. I hope to spend as much time as I can with her, because after their visit, they will be gone for another 3 years............this time even farther away than Alaska. Come early April, they will be on their way to
Misawa, Japan!!!
If anyone has ever been there, I'd love to hear about it. I am not a world traveler and have no desire to go that far away, & Kristen tells me that it would be a pretty pricey vacation, so she may not be able to visit either. Thank goodness for webcams & Skype so that we can see each other as we chat! Ya never know, there may even be a little grand-baby born while they're away. Shhhh, don't tell her I said that
