Comforts of Home!

Anticipating the boy's arrival I stocked up on a couple of bottles of red wine and a few of our favorite snackies. I thought for sure he would be super tired after his long travel day, but I guess his adrenaline was pumping because we stayed up late with our wine and chats and comfy couch just like we always did before he left.

I met him at the airport for 9:30, and of course our friend was there to pick up one of the other guys too. So we all had a big reunion and hugs and kisses and chats and laughs while we waited for bags and such. By the time we got everything and finished talking and stuff, it was well after 10:00 and we have a long drive home.

He was just so happy to be here. It's so cute! and contagious! I was pretty smiley too. LOL. Of course!!!

When we pulled into the driveway I figured the dog would be doing his barky, happy dance...but I guess he didn't realize that daddy was coming home (uh, duh, how would he know??!)....so I opened up the front door and let him run out. I think he was momentarily confused...LOL. But once he realized what was going on, he was one happy doggie! DBF was pretty stoked too...he missed his buddy.

We spent our evening just drinking wine, chatting, petting the dog, and just enjoying being together in the comforts of our own home. It's amazing how it's just the little things that really matter.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! :)

Tonight!!!!

Yup, the man is returning TONIGHT!! I woke up this morning to a Facebook message letting me know that I should pick him up at the airport at 9:30! wooooohooooooo!!

(haha, typical military....talk about waiting until the last minute to give them any details....)

I have stocked up on wine and his favorite snackies. Oh my God, will it be nice to finally have a normal, cozy night in with my boy!

FINALLY!

HE

IS

COMING

HOME

TOMORROW

!!!!!!!!!!

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

(Nuf said.)

I should clarify...

Vegas is for work. I've been for the same convention the past two years, and although Vegas is cool and the trip is paid for, it's actually more of a pain in the ass than anything. We're only there for 2 1/2 days and working pretty much the whole time. Last year I got an afternoon to wander the strip, but aside from that I don't get any free time. We are hoping to check out a celebrity chef restaurant this time (suggestions?) and maybe a show on the one evening off we have.

This year's trip is less desirable because DBF is coming home the day before I leave. So I'll be in a big hurry to get back home to be with him. The timing is so wrong!!

As of November 1st...

- SIX days till honey comes home!

- SEVEN days till I go to Vegas!

- FIFTEEN days till my birthday!

- FIFTY FIVE days till Christmas!
