Default Visit with Alyssa was great!

Our visit with Alyssa was wonderful! I have missed her so much and really I didn't realize just how much until she got here! All of her little antics and expressions, her laugh, her smell, everything about her beautiful little self. We did a whole lot of nothing, just hung out and watched movies. I cooked her lots of her fave meals and bought her fave snacks. It was just like old times. My birthday was in September and she brought me my gift. I started collecting Willow Tree figurines 10 years ago and I haven't had a new one given to me in about 5 years and she was thoughtful enough to get me one! She said it represents John Isaac! It made me cry!



Here she is looking better than ever!


She is in the best shape of her life. She is so muscular it's crazy. I couldn't stop looking at her. She is back in her running shape and currently running a 7:30 mile! She comes in first place when they run at all her PT practices. She is also 2nd in her class at Tech School! I can't believe how well she is doing.

She got her 1st duty station orders too. She is going to Hickam Base in Hawaii. We were planning a vacation to The Bahamas in June as a family but now we are going to Hawaii instead. She finishes Tech School in February. She is soooo excited about her station. We are excited for her too. Jonathan grew up in Hawaii and still has sisters there also.

Of course I cried when she left. Saying goodbye is so hard to do.

Anyway, just wanted to share how great things went and brag on my baby girl.

she looks like she is in great shape and really happy My niece's husband is stationed in hawaii but I am not sure what base he is at. She wants my husband and me to come down while they are there but with me being afraid to fly Im not sure itll happen. She says it is beautiful but very expensive (but then she has three kids to support). At any rate glad you guys had such a great visit!

Yeah for a great visit!!!!!! She looks awesome! I would gladly take a trip to Hawaii if she wants to adopt a second mom! I have always wanted to go. SO jealous that is where she will be stationed and that you will get to visit!

I'm so glad you had a great visit and that she's doing so well! I remember my son's early days in the Marines all too well! She'll love Hawaii - we were stationed there for several years early on in our marriage and loved it
