LEAVING!!!

We are finally out of here! We leave this morning, once I get some sleep and we get up...Too excited about finally moving on. Good bye White Sands Missile Range, hello McConnell AFB in Witchita, KS. Will post more when we get in!!! Wish us well!!!

Roving Homeless

Well, we are temporarily homeless. Today we said goodbye to 11316 La Crosse Street. But we are still in New Mexico waiting on the go ahead from all of the paperwork going thru, so we are waiting...waiting...waiting...well, you get the point. We are currently staying in the TLF (temporary lodging facility) here on base. Once we get the okay, we will head to KS and see about getting ourselves a new home...Until then, we are what you could call the roving homeless. Have Tahoe, will travel, if the military will let us...Here are a few pics of our home until today for you all to enjoy. It was a good house, and we loved it while we were here, but as they say "Home is where the Air Force sends you"...So, hopefully soon, on we go.... The front of 11316 La Crosse Street...

And the incredible view from the back yard...And finally, Aiden enjoying the vast space of the living room...Goodbye, 11316 La Crosse Street...

Echoes

Well, the move is under way. I am not saying we are on the way out...no, we are still here, but, our stuff isn't. We are currently living in an empty house with just the necessities. Thankfully we kept the tv, cable box, and 2 boxes of Aidens toys, or I would be going nuts right now. We have several things that still need to be done before Jeremy can get the final parts of the outprocessing done. One of those things is dental appointments for both Aiden and I. Now, for me this is routine, but for Aiden this is a first, and I will do my best to get a few pics if they will let me. I am not sure of this though, as it will be a military dentist. Jeremy is also taking his test for Staff Srgt. tomorrow morning. It is looking to be around the 15th when we will finally be out of here and on the road to Kansas. Until then, we sleep on air mattresses, eat off of paper plates, and cook in aluminum pans/tupperware. And we live out of suitcases. I suppose it is the modern day version of roughing it. The poor dogs don't even have "their" patio furniture to sit on outside. Things are really quite crazy, the house echoes at the smallest sound. Even breathing in the living room sounds loud right now. Sunday morning when I woke up, and went to let the dogs out, I was a little panicked to see that there was nothing in the house before I remembered that the movers had come and taken it all away on Saturday to put into storage until we arrive in Wichita. Aiden had a bit of a hard time dealing with things while the movers were actually taking all of the boxes and furniture. He kept going into his room and coming back out very upset saying "boxes"...and he started crying a few times when they took his changing table and his bed. Thankfully he was asleep when they took the couches, because I think that would have really disturbed him. All I can say for now is, I am a little bit disoriented, and ready to have my stuff back, no matter where I will be when I get it....
