Happy Belated Birthday Hubby!
William's 22nd birthday was yesterday but I'm posting this late because I was at mom's and didn't have internet. I haven't heard from him since Saturday when he was in Kuwait. He was supposed to find out last night at midnight (Eastern time) when he would be leaving. I hope he's on his way since I haven't heard from him but I really don't know. Hubby, I hope all is well and we'll celebrate your birthday when you get here! I love you and be careful as always!

William is in Kuwait
I talked to William a couple hours ago and he was able to get a flight into Kuwait today. He said they are backed up and he is hoping to be home by Christmas. It's a waiting game now...I'll keep you posted.
I saw William today!
This morning I was eating breakfast at the table and my laptop was there and all of a sudden the Windows Live Messenger screen popped up. It was William! We were able to IM and see each other for about 30 minutes. That's the first we've seen each other since early September! He's sitting in the terminal in Balad and has now gone to see when his flight to Kuwait will be. Hopefully, we'll know something soon!

William is on his way!
William called a couple hours ago and said he is on his way. He's in Balad, Iraq waiting for another day or two for a flight to Kuwait. Then he will go from Kuwait to Atlanta and Atlanta to Gainesville. He won't be here in time for his birthday but we're hoping he makes it for Christmas.

Early November...Mom and I making Christmas cookies for William
Mom and dad made William a whole lot of sweet stuff in early November so that he would get it by Christmas. I helped a little but they did the hard parts. Mom and I made spritz, gingerbread, and mingles. Dad and I made him chocolate covered pretzels, pecan pralines, and divinity. I would much rather eat cookie dough than a cookie any day! Yum!!!
Mom pressing out camels and stars. She also made wreaths and trees.
I made royal icing and decorated a few of the cookies. I'm sure they were melted by the time they arrived but I tried.
All done. I accomplished the ACU attire, ha.

Thanks Mom and Dad!
Since William is coming home (Gainesville for now, I guess) for Christmas I told him to go ahead and open all of the gifts from me and my parents that had been sent to him. My mom sent William a box full of snacks, toys, books and a book light. Dad got him a boxed set of one of William's favorite TV shows. Thanks Mom and Dad!
