Deployment Day!

So, I haven't posted anything on here in awhile. It's been a fast couple months with lots of things going on. Jay deployed for Iraq at the end of July for, hopefully, his last deployement (wishful thinking, honestly). He made it safe and sound. Getting ready to get the job done there and get home. The first month is almost over. It's gone a lot faster then I thought that it would. It's been a lot of ups and downs. Some good days, some bad days. We are getting through it.
It's hard to describe how it makes someone feel. I'm so proud of him but I'm selfish. I want him here. Making memories. So, instead I'm here making memories for him. I started scrapbooking for all the days of the deployment. Obviously, I'm not doing all 365 days because that would be overwhelming, but I'm doing most of the days. I want Jay to see what was going on and the things that the dogs and I did while he was away. It should be a fun little project and something for me to work on while he gone. It's a fun thing for me to start learning.
