Wierd weather

We are having some wierd weather this year because it went warm to cold over night. This has been a cold fall for us in NC. It goes down to the 30s at night time and everything. We even had a frost last night. I have a bad feeling that we are gonna have a cold winter. Last year it was in the 70s and 80s. Now we are freezing are butts off. Chuck and I are both from NY you think we would like the cold weather we dont like it. Chuck said the only the only thing that he likes about NY when its cold is that he can go sking. My parents said that they already got snow in NY. My friend Liz sent me pics of it there. Thats one thing about NC is that it dosent snow only a little bit. Is everyone else having wierd weather where they are.

Time is going by to fast

Well Chuck is leaving for a another deployment soon which stinks. It feels like Chuck just got home 2008 is going by fast. I hope that 2009 will to so I can have him back in my arms again. Hes still here we got a few fun things planned before he leaves and we get to celebrate our 7 year anniversary which is awesome. I have been blessed to have him home for our anniversaries. We are also gonna get to celebrate Thanksgiving together to. He is gonna be leaving soon after that which makes me sad. I know that I got some awesome family and friends that will help me through this long deployment which will be great. I wanted to go home for the year that he would be gone but Chuck dosent want me to. He dosent want to lose our house which is true so I decided to make the best of it here at Ft Bragg. I just want him to be safe there. I already started to worry about him which is wrong I know but I want him to be safe. I have already started to stress out about it. I am trying not to but I am.

Chucks birthday pics :)

Chuck and I had a great time on his birthday we went to Applebees and then we did a little bit of shopping and then came home and had cake. It was great to beable to celebrate his 34th birthday with him. For his birthday he got the Wii Fit for our Wii and we both love it. Its a lot of fun and hopefully it will help us both get in shape. He wanted the Wii sports to but we arent having any luck finding it. I know that you get the game with the new one but we got a used one while in NY and it didnt have that game. :(

Marriage Retreat @ Myrtle Beach

Chuck and I went on a Marriage Retreat this weekend. Chucks units Chaplins had it for us. It was really nice we got to learn about the 5 love languages. We learned about the 5 love languages a few years ago but it was great to talk about it with him. We learned what both of ours was and to fill each other love tanks up. There was 5 Chaplins and each one of them talked about their love language and what works for them and their wives. We got to meet other couples to and all of us getting ready for the brigade deployment coming up next mont. I enjoyed this time very much with CHuck and he enjoyed it to.

We stayed at the Ocean Dunes and our room was paid for and 3 of our meals to. We had a Ocean view from our room which was really pretty. When we werent doing the classes we got to spend time and have fun with each other.

On Friday night after the class we went to the hotel bar Mangos and Chuck sang Kareoke. He sang I cant help falling in love and I cross my heart. He was being a sweetheart to me.

On Saturday after the classes we had a whole day to be with each other was really nice. We went to Broadway By The Beach and walked around the boardwalk and th en we went to Medevil Times for a dinner and a show. We had so much fun watching it and eating the yummy food to. We definitely want to go back again. Then we got back to the hotel and Chuck sang Kareoke again.

On Sunday Morning we did a few pic from our deck again since it was sunny and then we went and did the class. After the class we were released in the morning and we went to Barefoot Landing and had lunch at Joes Crab Shack and did some shopping. Then we drove home. We had so much fun this weekend.

We took a lot of pics from there to. I dont want to bore everyone so if you want to see them you can check out myspace of facebook if you have me. Or if you want to add me you can. :)

Happy Birthday Dad

Happy Birthday to my Dad I hope that you have a wonderful birthday today.

Conflictions with Lawyers

Well after getting back to NY last week Chuck got 2 letters in the mail from his lawyer that there is a conflict now. The conflict is that he wrote the will for Mr Black 2 years ago. So now he cant be Chucks lawyer but he gave Chuck a new number for a lawyer in Fayetteville. Hes gonna refund the money back to Chuck and hes gonna give it to the other lawyer. Chuck said that he gonna meet his new lawyer tomorrow at his court case tomorrow. It isnt setteled yet which is good for Chuck because he still has his liscense but hopefully buy the time he leaves for Iraq it is. We just didnt need this added stress to everything else that is going on. Well I come back tomorrow and say what happened.

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Chuck and Chris I hope that you both have a wonderful 34th birthday.

I am excited today because I get to celerbate Chucks 34th birthday with him since he was deployed last year. Tonight we are gonna go to Logans and have birthday cake. I will post some birthday pics later on.

Our NY adventure

Chuck and I had a great time when we were in NY. It was fun hangingout with our family and friends. We got to shop which we loved because it was tax free on clothes and shoes which is cool. I wish that it was like here in NC. We played Wii with my brother Joe and our friends, Liz and Scott and my brother in law Chris to. After playing Wii Chuck loved it so we actually found one while we were in NY. It was one that was traded in at Gamestop but it was still cool and worked.

We also played team trivia at Flashbacks and Anatellos with Scott, Liz and Chris. It was fun playing trivia even know we didnt know some of the questions. I actually got one question right and I got excited. It was who wrote the book My Life and I said Bill Clinton. I got lots of cool pics at Flashbacks they had some neat stuff there. Anatellos was a Italian resturant.

We also got to eat at yummy resturant called Tullys with Chucks parents and our friends. We also went to Jonathons for Kareoke. I dont sing but Chuck and his brother Chris love to sing. It was fun watching them sing. I cant carry a tune but I sing when I am home cleaning, in the car and in the shower to. LOL

My parents also took us out for dinner to Consols which was really yummy Italian food. We had a great time hanging out with them.

We got to spend time with Chucks grandmas. We went out for lunch with Grandma Fertig to a little diner by her house. The food was yummy there. Then we went to Phills Chicken house for dinner with his grandma Hranek. We had a great time being with both of them.

Then our last weekend in NY we went to Wine Country with our parents. We had a lot of fun going to the different vineyards and trying different wines. Then in the evening we went to Chucks Aunt Nancy and Uncle Garys to hangout.

We also got to spend time with my little cousin Danielle, Mitchell and Samantha. They came over to my moms house and we did crafts with them. They were so cute and said silly things.

My parents through a party for Chuck at the VFW for him deploying soon and for his 34th birthday coming up this week. It was such a nice turn out for him. My family and his family were both there. It was wonderful spending time with all of them. We miss them all.

To top off our vacation we got to hold my new baby cousin Ylaena. She was so cute and only 1 month old. I love babys.

Since I took so many pics while I was home I will just put up one for now and some other ones this week.

Update for Chucks court date

Chucks hearing went well and they post poned it again. I think its good that they are doing that. They are trying to have it work in his favor if he does lose his liscense because hes gonna be deploying anyways. His next court date will be October 9th. Chuck said they will probroblay post pone it again until November before he leaves. Please cross your fingers that they do that. He dosent want to be with out his liscense since he has to work everyday and because he wants to beable to go and see Joe and Cassandra down in Gerogia. We havent saw Joe for a few years. I think it would be great for them to see each other.

Remembering September 11th,

This was a sad day that I will never forget. I still think of all those families that lost someone.

Bush Gardens Europe

On the skyride we got to see some of the park. It was fun. Do you see the rollercoaster in the background.

The Griffon rollercoaster. This was one was really scary Chuck said. Yesterday Chuck and I had a fun day at Busch Gardens. We got in free for the day because of the website http://www.herosalute.com/ . We had so much fun and it didn't even rain. Its been rainy so much here but I am glad it was a nice day. We went on rollercoasters, 4D rides, and the sea dragon and some other ones to. We got to see the Clysdale horses they were so pretty. We didnt get to see all the neat shows they had there but we got to see the Octoberfest show in Germany and that was neat to see. It reminded us of being at the real Octoberfest in Germany. We also ate lunch in Germany at the Octoberfest. Chuck got to sample some yummy German food so he was happy.

Labor Day plans

For Labor Day this year we are going to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg VA for the day and gonna spend the night there on Friday. On Saturday we want to see some of the town and then come home. On Sunday we are going to our friends daugthers birthday party. Then on Monday we might just bbq some chicken with some of our friends and relax. I just hope that we have nice weather so we can enjoy. I keep checking the weather bug and it saids rain for VA. :( I just hope that it passes over.
