So, although his ship is going to stay on deployment until around Christmas, James has received his orders and will be coming home at the end of September. How excited we are to be reunited with him!!!! On October 13th we will be embarking on our 7th move in 5 years, going from Logan Utah to the Naval Training Center at Great Lakes Illinois. Although we are not looking forward to a Chicago winter we are looking forward to the adventure that is always entaled in a move and change of this type. It will be a challenge, but we are expectant and hopeful. We will hopefully be able to stay put for 3 years, as James will be a division commander at the Navy's Boot Camp.
So although we are sad to leave the beautiful and close-to-family Cache Valley (there really isn't anywhere on earth quite like this place... although I detest the sidewalks and traffic lights here) we are glad to be moving so soon. And we would like to extend our invitation to our friends and family...
If you ever find yourselves out near Chicago, our latch string is always up for you, and we love nothing better then friendly reunions... so come visit and stay as long as you like.
As soon as we get an address we will post it here, but our phone numbers will not be changing.

Exciting times ahead most especially that upcoming renunion! Okay I'll admit even I'm getting a little choked up about it because I know just how special and sweet those moments are when our Sailors finally come home! Have fun in Chicago! we were there for a little over 7 months a few years back, Jon was in school at the Naval Station. I can honestly say I don't miss the bitter cold.
We'll only be four hours away from each other. We will have to get together sometime!
I am so excited for you that James is coming home!
Although we will be sad that you are leaving AGAIN we know that you are doing what you need to. Please let us know when we can see you all, and when James gets here.
Love you all.
