I have been having trouble with posting this and I couldn't put my finger on why....I wanted to, but didn't at the same time. Until I ran across my friend's blog here. She says she didn't want to blog after her husband's homecoming. This was, I believe his first deployment, so, first homecoming, and she says, "it really was so dear to my heart that its hard for me to share that part with anybody."
I can understand that.
I'm not going to go into too many details or share too many of the pictures. Trust me....there are TONS! But I see this as our family's own personal journal, and I am doing this for my friends and family that would like see.
It's hard because there are certain people that I hope never come across this blog, hence the fact that the old blog went private for a while. But as long as our family is safe, we will be public and we will share :)
Tiffany, the make-up artist...with her massive collection!

Sunglasses we got for everyone in the party. They were fun! I still wear mine all the time

The dress that I wore! Big thank you-again goes to Amber to loaning it to me....and to Jared for bringing it out from salt lake on some last minute notice! He is awesome!
I was up by 7, showered and hair in curlers by the time Jess and Tiffany got there. They said something about how calm I was, that they would have been nervous wrecks! LOL. yea. I can see that. I was more excited and more....just ready.
