Wednesday on a Thursday. (Orders finalized)

Wordless Wednesday

Ok,ok so this might be a little bit wordy. I am pretty verbose most of the time. Before we went fishing during our visit at my parents, I stopped at my great-grandparents grave. This is the first time since my great-grandma passed in 2003 that I have been back. It was nice to clean the grave sight up a little bit & to just reflect a bit.

Wordful Wednesday
This is Ben in all his Marine glory :-) He will be up for the August promotions board so he had to take a picture to update his file for the Marines. (Now that doesn't mean that he will be promoted in August, he will have to wait for his number to come up & they only do promotions twice a year so....it's complicated ok! I always feel like I have to explain these crazy, daily life decisions!)
Anyway, we also got the email from his career monitor saying that we have been extended in his current squadron until next summer. Woo hoo! (That is what we were hoping for.....now in December we will have to make some very hard decisions on what we will be doing next summer. It very well might include moving us far from our church, home, friends, & everything else that we have built up here over the last 6+ years.) Regardless of what next summer holds I am content to know that we are here for another year and that God will lead us where we need to be next. (For all of those family member reading this post, we really don't have any favorites right now so everything will be told in time!)
