The Toby Keith Concert

Yesterday I went to see Toby Keith with my friend Nancy and her hubby we took a 2 hr and a half trip to Sweinfurt from Hanau. It rained so hard going there but when we finally got there it stopped raining.. We were so happy it was just really cold for me and it drizzeled a little bit to..

Toby Keith did a great job singing yesterday I loved all of his songs..

Yesterday two soldiers reenlisted and Toby Keith was part of that. I just wish the weather would of been warmer and I was able to get pictures but I couldnt because we were to far away..:(

Happy Military Spouse Appreciation Day

Miltiary Spouse Appreciation Day..

by Arlene H. Hull

Special to the Tester

'If the military had wanted you to have a spouse, they would have issued one."

Remember those words? Well, that was then and this is now. Americas
military has realized and acknowledged the signifiacance of the military spouse. In 1984 President Reagan proclaimedthe Friday before Mothers Day of each year to be Military Spouse Appreciation Day. Its your day to stand up and be honered.

For the times you've stood and watched a ship sail from the harbor, an aircraft disappear in the the clouds, or a truck convoy pull out of sight, not sure when they would return, we thank you.

For the countless household moves you've made from a place you know to one that's strange and different-often by yourself-we thank you.

For the families you've held together, for the anniversaries, birthdays, and holidays you've celebrated alone, we thank you.

For the hand you've extended to another military spouse when the needwas there, truly creating a military family, we thank you.

For the spirit and strengh you've shown when your service member has gone into harms way, we thank you.

For the pride you've displayed while serving as an ambassador of the military spouse to the rest of the world, we thank you.

Far to frequently, the sacrifices and dedication of the military spouse have gone unnoticed and unappreciated. In our nation's recent history, thousands of service members have been placed in harm's way as they stood watch as freedoms guardian. You too have stood watch at home, facing challenges alone. You

Enjoying the weather

The weather has been really nice here in Germany. Chuck and I have been loving it. Its been so sunny here and even warm. We have been taking walks in the evening and went downtown today and walked around. We are on the hunt for some shorts and tshirts but I was able to find a pair of shorts that I liked but Chuck didnt see anything that he wanted. So we will look around at some other places or even buy from our favorite store Old Navy. We love that store. I hope that everyone else is enjoying the weather to where ever you are..

Look at me

Heres a picture of me wearing my new skirt that I got yesterday at New Yorker. How do I look? Do I look okay?

Amy

Happy Cinco De Mayo

I hope that everyone had a great day today..Chuck had the day off so we went downtown with our friend and had Pizza Hut for lunch and did a little shopping..I didnt buy that much just a pair of sandals and a black skirt at New Yorker..Its just a black one but I hope that it looks good on me. Chuck wants me to wear it so I told him I would.. I am not much of a dressing up person.I like to dress casual and be comfortable. Chuck bought a remote control car and hes playing with it. Hes to funny to watch boys with their toys. He keeps picking on Sabrina with it and teasing her. Shes not that happy with him right now.

Adios,
Amy
