Well, a lot has happened in a short amount of time. We were able to go to Ohio to visit Nate's family. The circumstances weren't all that great, but we were able to visit with all of Nathaniel's family in Ohio before we are off to Hawaii. We met Nathaniel's mom at the hospital to visit his uncle Larry who had suffered from a stroke the weekend prior. We met up with his Grandpa and Peggy and his His Aunt Linda and Uncle Bob along with his cousin Cara. It was nice to be able to see everyone and just to catch up. We were able to go back and visit, but just for a little bit since they were bending the rules for us that late at night. We went home after that to say goodnight to Tim, Nate's stepdad. Tim was really sick while we were there so he rested the majority of the time. We woke up and went back to the hospital. We stayed there for a little while then we went back to spend the night hanging out and spending time with Tim. Sara, Nate's cousin, and her boyfriend stopped by to say hello and Uncle Mark also stopped by, he had made us one of his famous cheesecakes. It was amazing! We spent some more time with them and then went to bed. The next day, Sunday was really hard, we knew were going to have to say goodbye to Tim, probably for the last time. He spoke with Nate and I each individually and we were able to say our goodbyes and just talk for a little bit with each other. I was bawling like a baby by the end, he will be greatly missed.
Well, after all that we are back to the present day. Nate and I are preparing for the big move in about 2 weeks. We are going room by room and seperating our stuff which has turned out to be pure craziness. My family comes next week and I am so flippin excited for it. We did all the shopping for there visit, there was so much.
I am also going to start a new blog when we get to Hawaii. I am going to take one picture a day for everyday that we are there and blog about my day and the picture I took. I think it will be something different and that way my friends and family can see what it's like in Hawaii. I will probably discontinue this blog. Well, enough for now I'm off to bed. Blog again soon lol!

Weekend...
Well, a quick update from this weekend...
The Resort was amazing. Nate and I left early and dropped Oreo off at the pet palace (we left Baxter at home). We made it to the Resort about 12:00pm and we checked into the hotel. After we dropped our bags off in the room we went and snooped around the hotel and found out were things were. Our massages were at 3:00pm so we got there a little early to fill out our papers. The Spa was the most amazing place ever! We were each taken back to our gender dressing rooms and we were assigned lockers with codes for our things. We had our couple's massage and that too was so amazing, just what we needed. Then we went back to the dressing room and took showers to get ready for dinner. We went to dinner at the Power Plant restaurant. After Dinner we went to the casino for a little while, that was a lot of fun. We aren't big gamblers, but was fun to go in and play some of the games. We were tired after that so we went to the room and went to bed. We woke up and checked out of the Hotel and went to breakfast and then we decided to go back to the casino again, just for fun since we didn't lose any money the night before. We never spend that much money that way if we lose it we aren't at rock bottom. We played a couple hours on 10 bucks lol. After that we decided just to go home we were worn out.
We were on our way home when we got the news that Nate's uncle Larry had had a stroke early sunday morning. Nate's mom had to go to the hospital because Nate's grandfather was scared to give him the medicine bc it wasn't gauranteed to work. They gave him the meds and he has improved a little bit, but he still can't move his right side and he can't fully talk. We are just asking for people to keep him in your prayers.
We are going to Ohio this weekend, which will hopefully be good trip. It will be a sad one. This will probably be our last time to see Nate's stepdad Tim. We are going to be saying a lot of goodbyes this weekend so we again ask for prayers.
Well, that is enough for now I will update again soon.

Comings and Goings...
Wow! I actually posted within a month of my last post...Crazy!
It has been a crazy weekend with so much going on and so many emotions. Nate's grandparents came to visit us this Friday for the weekend, I always look forward to seeing them so much. I love grandma Balough because she always brings stuff to me that she knows I am going to need and use and funny enough the items are always something I was just thinking about needing. I love when she gives us these items because there is ALWAYS a story that goes along with each item that makes them more personal than if she had just given them to us and said, "Here ya go!". The funniest part about it is that grandpa Balough chimes in and says, "No no that's not what happened". It is so flippen amazing to watch them chatter back and forth...and that was just the beginning of it.
I have always loved watching Nate's grandparents together, they are definitely an inspiring couple. Nate and I both are a product of divorce so to see a lasting relationship that we can model ours after is truly a gift from God. They exude love through all they do. They are always willing to give us advice on anything from finances to how to get a stain out of a shirt. Last night they took us out for dinner to a Japanese Steakhouse. It was so much fun watching them get involved with the cook and all his throwing of knives and such. It was a wonderful evening that was capped off by playing more Monopoly Deal and Mexican Train Dominoes. Now don't let the fact that these are grandparents fool you they play to WIN!:) Grandpa always tries to come up with "new strategies" on how to kick everyone's butt, but most of the time it doesn't work. We then tried to convince grandpa to stay one more day, but they had to get back to Ohio. When they went to leave grandma Balough stopped and said she wanted to lift us up in prayer before she left, which of course made me cry like a baby. She prayed for our future and for Nate and I individually and the things we were going to embark on. All of this made it even harder to say goodbye. I really have never been one for mushy sad goodbyes for the most part, but this goodbye made me realize that this is one of the first of many that we will say in the next couple of months.
God has truly blessed us with wonderful families and AMAZING friends that are all portable because they are all in our hearts. It will be hard to say goodbye for 2 years, but I know God has big plans for us in Hawaii and for Nate in Iraq. I am so proud of Nate for making the decision to go over to Iraq and serve. We thought long and hard and prayed even harder about the decision. We have no regrets about and for the most part our families respect and honor our choices. I know they don't want us to move so far away, but right now with no children it is a great opportunity to see and live in parts of the world that would ordinarily not be an option. I always knew I was not meant to stay in SC forever, I just didn't know how God was going to move me out of my hometown. Who knew that it would be through a big eared, big hearted man named Nathaniel. God has given us such a gift by allowing us to be apart of this great unit called the Army. We are going to meet people and go places that we could have only dreamed of. With all that said it doesn't make it any easier to say goodbye to those that we love and care about. We have started our goodbyes with this weekend and they won't end till we get on the plane.
On a lighter note, Nate and I get to go to the resort next weekend, which I am SO excited about. I am looking forward to spending time with my husband just the two of us with no work just relaxation and at a gorgeous hotel.
I guess I better start in on the things of the day. I have to do our meal plan for the next couple weeks and clean out the storage closet and give our lovely dogs a bath. Well, hopefully my next update will be after our trip.

the up and coming...
Well again I have totally neglected this blog thing. Nothing much is going on with me at the moment. I am just trying to stay on top of organizing our move and so on. I think once I am in Hawaii blogging about all of my adventures will be a good time consuming thing for me to do while Nate is away.
Well there are a couple things coming up that I am really excited about...
1.Family coming to visit-My grandparents are coming this weekend for a quick stay to see us before we leave. In July my mom, Nana, aunt and uncle are all coming to visit for a whole week :). I will have to find something for them to do so I am working on that right now.We also get to visit my mother in law and my father in law in Ohio!Hopefully we will get to see all the aunts and uncles up there too...they are so much fun. Uncle Mark said he would make us a cheesecake for our going away present. He makes THE best cheesecakes ever. I am excited to see them all before Hawaii. His mom tells us that Nate's stepfather is getting worse (he has cancer) and this might be our last time to see him so we are trying to get there and see them and spend time with them before we leave.
2. Our little getaway weekend to the French Lick Resort in Indiana is coming up in a week and a half so I am really looking forward to massages and staying at the gorgeous hotel and eating a wonderful meal.
http://www.frenchlick.com/hotels/frenchLick/index.jsp
this is a link for the hotel...We are so glad to be able to take a weekend away!...and with our gift card we don't have to pay nearly as much as it would normally cost which is a HUGE blessing. I will try to be a good blogger and post pics and blog about it.
3.Hawaii!!!enough said ;) I am getting excited about our upcoming move and finding a new place for us to stay and for us to take the puppies to the beach and let them play in the sand. I am excited to be apart of a REAL unit and to no longer be in TRADOC. Nate also becomes a Captain next year so that is something we are already looking forward to happening.
All in all I am just doing the wifely things. Today I mowed the lawn all by myself and found it pretty rewarding. I thought since I will be doing it by myself in the future I might as well start now. Plus the lawns in Hawaii won't be like they are here so I got it covered. I am about to start reading "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo". It seems like it will be an interesting book. I am then, hopefully, going to finish my book club reading from last summer. My friend and I started our own summer book club and I got stuck on the first book because I didn't have any time at camp to read them so I am going to play catch up and hopefully we can start another one this summer :).Well, that is all for now my hubby is cooking me dinner so I better go eat it. I will really try to update soon(haha i know).
