Day Six

day six: whatever tickles my fancy

well, this is going to be an easy one since i have decided i'm going to talk about rey, since even though we are more than a thousand miles apart he is in my thoughts at all times! no matter what i am doing or even saying he is always in the back of my mind. i always find myself thinking, what would rey say to this? would he find this funny? would he find this fun, would he like this person..etc. so to give this post more of a certain subject i'm going to talk about rey's homecoming!!

so far rey's homecoming is supposed to be in december and i hope and pray everyday that he really does get home before christmas. so i know it's really early to be planning for homecoming since i haven't even reached the three month mark yet, but in less than a month this deployment will be halfway through so i figure that's good enough for me. plus, if i remember correctly and these two deployments end up being the same once i hit the three month mark on rey's last deployment everything just seemed to fly by! so far i have ordered rey a homecoming banner! the banner says 'welcome home naldo' and then at the bottom it says 'husband, best friend, and hero' so yeah, pretty cute! plus, it has my favorite picture of him on it as well! it's actually that picture on the top of my blog on the banner! i just think he looks super adorable and that's just totally him! the other thing is me and my friend melissa have decided that we want to wear matching shirts! here is the shirt we have decided on! CLICK ME! so yep! that's the shirt and i am super excited about it! so let's see.. what else? oh yes! i have hired a photographer! last time when rey got home i had my dad recording me and rey seeing each other, but in all the excitement of him being back i totally forgot to get some pictures. plus, my dad is a pretty conservative guy, so both rey and i felt awkward and didn't give each other that big kiss that we had wanted to! so this time i am going to have someone there to capture it all and this time rey and i aren't going to hold anything back! like i said, last time i was a bit shy since my dad was there, but this time nothing is going to stop me from running towards him and jumping into his arms! i honestly can't wait for that moment! seven months is a long freaking time to be away from someone you love with very limited communication, but last time and i already know this time, as soon as rey and i see each other it's going to make everything we went through totally and completely worth it! i seriously cannot wait!! well, i think it's time i stop torturing myself by thinking about it since like i said, i'm still about a month away from the halfway point... but yeah! that's the plan for now!

peace in the middle east,
