Blizzard Bloghop

First of all, THANK YOU to Ann Marie for hosting this blog hop, I cannot imagine how much work you put into this!

Second, I am so cheating and using the same post from the last blog hop I participated in, with a few edits =)

I'm in my late 20's a 20-something wife of a US Army Engineer.  I'm originally from the great state of OH-IO.  The hubs is originally from Kentucky.  If you're not familiar with midwest geography, our home towns are separated by a river and about 5 miles of land.  We both claim Cincinnati as "home" simply because it's easier.  We technically met on facebook thanks to this photo

(we have a mutual friend who pointed him out to me on there and I sent him a message telling him I thought he was hot) in 05 while he was a Firstie Senior at West Point.  We went on our 1st date 2 days after he graduated.  He was looking for a "summer fling" before he left for OBC in the fall but ended up finding the love of his life.  We married at the JOP in January of 08 in a super cheesy chapel in Kentucky in front of our parents, grandparents and siblings (we just celebrated our 3 year anniversary in Hawaii thanks to the Army sending the husband TDY...you can read about that here and here and stay tuned for more)

We had a large ceremony/reception in September 09 (which 3 of our grand parents were unable to be with us for, so we're really glad we did things the way we did!)

We have a fat Beagle named Buster, whom we inherited from my grandparents and love dearly

We've been stationed at:

Ft Bragg

Ft Leonard Wood x2

Ft Riley

and now we're blessed to call Camp Zama, Japan home.

This blog is mostly to document our life as a military family and to keep our friends and family back home up to date on our adventures in Japan.  I enjoy hockey, photography, Coke, reading, traveling and cooking, so those things frequently show up around here too.

Happy Blog Hopping =)
