Vacation Time Coming Soon

So I dream of every day going to the beach! Yes every single day! We are Vacation Fools all year long! That is one of the things that I miss the most about my hubby being gone! Of course HE is what I miss the most!!! Vacationing all the time is also one of the things I miss the most about being stationed in Fort Bragg, NC! Vacation Spots, especially beaches, were very short distances away so we went A LOT!!! Needless to say since the hubs is on his way soon to spend 15 days with us we are vacationing most of the time, just like the last deployment! I know some military spouses prefer to live there everyday life during that time, but we do not! We love to spend that time vacationing our hearts out! Then when he leaves we do not have to go back to day to day life without him again. It is hard enough the first time I personally do not want to do it again! Preferrably NOT EVER again but we are in the Army and will be for a long time still so it is part of the job! We deal with it and move on! I support my husband fully and I LOVE OUR life together as a family! It is our life! Being a soldier is what God has called my husband to do and I stand behind that decision as a thankful wife!
Okay so our first vacation spot will be Tybee Island, GA! I can not wait! We have never been there! We are also going to visit Savannah, GA some too! The Hubs and I have been to Savannah a couple of times but are not experts on that city and there are still millions of things we would like to see! But the best thing is none of my family has been to either city! We will all be little explorers and on a new adventure! So not normal for my family we go to the same vacation spot every single year on the same week of every year. It is just what we have always done and truly our hearts LOVE Pensacola Beach but we will go back another day! So Tybee Island Here We Come in two weeks!!!! Any Suggestions of things to do I would love to hear!


The Next stop on our Vacation is Myrtle Beach, SC. We have grown to love this place. Jon went to Myrtle Beach several times growing up but I had never been till we moved to Ft. Bragg. Actually we never adventured there until after his 1st deployment to Iraq. We drove in for a Strong Bonds Marriage Retreat on a long weekend and Jon had the next week off so we had decided to book a hotel for that week as my birthday present! The Retreat went great as did the week. We had so much fun and there was so much to do! We love to go to the outlets and putt putt and Jon loves to fish off the pier. So with the oil spill in the Gulf we changed our vacation spot to here! We are so looking forward to the time together relaxing, fishing, golfing, shopping, and spending time with our families. We have also decided that we are going to renew our Wedding vows on the beach since our 5 year anniversary was this year and we have been through so much together!
