Happy New Year!

We got some new and unexpected news yesterday. Josh is getting orders to deploy to an Army unit for 8 months. The last couple years the Navy has been sending people from shore duty assignments to augment units in the Middle East. Lucky me- his number came up. Josh will be headed to Ft. Jackson, South Carolina in March for a crash course in how to be a soldier. Then he'll on to an Army base in Kuwait. Good times. Happy New Year to me and the kids!
