Happy (Almost) New Year!






Well it time for the traditional Year-in-Review. I hope that this is finding everyone in good spirits and good health. Steve and I have just recently returned from our Christmas trip to Arizona where he met my family for the first time. I'll say it went swimmingly. I'm happy to report that he spoke to my mom and dad and asked if he could ask for my hand in marriage! He even divulged his ideas for the actual proposal to my dad but is keeping those plans top secret. Yay!
So back to my year-in-review. We've both met each others families this year and the meetings went well on both sides. Steve got promoted to SSG this year and I was made cadre and was put in charge of the warrior care clinic and made medical NCO for our company. We took our first trip; both road and by air together this year and gained a cat named Oreo. Our year anniversary was in November and hope to have many more! Steve enjoys his video games when he is not working and looks forward to getting more! I look forward to playing my little games and (honestly) doing homework. We both go home as often as we can but as both pretty busy with work.
Looking forward to 2009!! We've already got plenty of plans in the works. Steve has 2 MONTHS of training scheduled March-April at Fort Huachuca. Yikes! I'll be flying out for Rileys b-day in February then riding out with Steve in March. We'll be going backpacking in Az before steve has to go to Southern Az for training. Then I'll most likely fly out for my b-day in April. Lots to do already!
Well Happy New Year! Lots of Love from an AZ girl lost in Kentucky!

Yay! I can't wait to be able to call Steve my brother-in-law. Well, I probably could now since it seems we sucked him into our family and love him already. Miss you guys!

I am so excited for you sweetheart. Although...let's be honest....you really had to get MY approval, right? I was the deciding factor...HAHA. Good news is, I heartily give my consent. Steve is awesome!

Miss you already and make sure to give me a call when you need help with the big day! :-)
