The FINAL countdown!

Here is a shot of Eric getting an award certificate. This is great, because it means they are almost done! Woohoo! Only 7 more days!!!!

Only 3 more weeks!

We are on the final countdown! Eric will be coming home in just 3 short weeks!

I know this is the life of a military wife, and don't get me wrong I am so proud of him, but being a single mom sucks! I don't know how those military wives do it whose husbands are gone for 1-2 years. I know I have it easy, so I try not to complain.
So excited that he is coming home though! Finally we can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Life in Qatar!

Eric has been gone for almost 2 months now, so we are almost 1/2 way done! It is harder at times than others, but we are surviving! Here are just a couple basic pictures he sent me a while back. This is just various shots of the base.

Can you believe all the pretty colors? NOT! I would so miss the mountains, trees, and flowers. Everything is so white. Blah!

This is like an outdoor lounge area. Everyone can hang out. Let me remind you it hardly ever goes below 100 degrees there. And if it does, it is like 2:00 in the morning. It is usually around 110 to 115 degrees every day, and has gotten as hot as 140 degrees. They also do not have rain there at all. Since it is the desert, they have mostly sandstorms.

Here is Eric with one of the guys he works with! What is funny about this is when Eric joined the military over 20 years ago, he was stationed at Beale AFB in California with this same guy! Small world!

Keep up the good work honey! We love you!
