Home?

We're here! And we have internet to hook our computers up to as well. It feels weird going from an I-phone for a couple of weeks back to a lap top. I like the clickity-clack this makes. Anyhoo...

The trip out here was great! We took three days and we got to see a few things and it was just a great experience to have together and I'm really happy to have made it here in one piece! We got along the entire time and that was perfect. I didn't take as many pictures as I wanted to and I kept forgetting to grab my camera. But I will put up what I took when I get the chance.

We drove to Mt. Rushmore and that was pretty cool. It was very cold outside. We made it in the night before to Rapid City. It was incredibly foggy and when we were driving toward the sculpture we were worried if it had been a waste of time because we wouldn't be able to see it, but the skies cleared on the way and it was great! It's smaller in person, because you always see close up pictures of it and everything. The eyes were pretty creepy too. But I know I got a lot of pictures of that, so I will have to find a good one to post.

We went through St. Louis, during rush hour traffic no less, and it was so HUGE. I couldn't get any good pictures because of the stop and go traffic, but it was still amazing to see and I cant wait to go and check in out when we have more time. All of the sports arenas were pretty close to each other and close to the freeway and I thought that was pretty awesome. It was weird seeing a Home Depot right off the freeway and downtown. And there were like apartments or condos inside an old factory warehouse type building right on the side of the freeway. That was really cool to look at too. There were a lot of old structures in Missouri., we had driven through St. Joseph earlier in the day and that was pretty cool to see too.

We are staying with one of Kasey's buddies and his wife, and I am loving it here. They are so nice and I am so grateful to have a place to stay. Jessica and Trevor have been awesome. Their stuff just arrived today and I am so jealous watching them unpack everything and set their place up. I can't wait to do that.

We had been wanting to get a place on post, but Kasey heard form a friend that it might be at least 6 months to get one. We can't stay with the Sampson's forever! They need their alone time and to be able to have their spare room to themselves, and we need to be able to be alone and just be together alone finally. And I want to be able to set our home up too. So I think we will be looking off post if Kasey comes back today and confirms if the wait is going to be that long. We need somewhere that allows dogs since we want to get a puppy soon.

It will all work out, eventually. Unfortunately, it's still a waiting game. We will figure things out together though, and I'm so happy about that. Now I'm just waiting for him to get off work! He needs to hurry up! ;)
