:(

chrsitian left today. he wont be home for about a year; he goes to war on August 20 and this is his last trip home.. its very sad. thats the crazy thing about the marine corps. or any branch of the military i guess, they FORCE you to leave everything and yet the people that join choose to do so. christian is excited to go. i'm not but he is. he wanted this. why would anyone want this?

He was home for about 9 days. it was a good trip. we had some hickups but all in all it was wonderful. The trip to Mississippi, late night IHOP, and my birthday all added up to some good memories. I'm happy.
