I've bought a ticket and I'm flying to CANADA! I need a break. I know this isn't the best time to come and visit, after all I'll have just missed college "reading week" and the weather will be deep freeze cold, but this trip is for me. I want to eat my parents food, and use their hot water. I want to do my laundry in their basement and have talks at the dinner table while eating cereal from Safeway. I want to visit with friends and family and remember that I have many people in my life (although they live far away) that care a lot about me and what I think. I just need a change for a while.
Dave just got word today that he can join me for my 4th week, and I'm so excited! Dave does everything for me and Ava. He loves us and cares for us, he supports us and tries to make everything wonderful. He is truly the best husband and I am glad that he gets to have a short holiday with us. Plus he will be flying home with me so that means I only have to single parent one 10 hour plane ride.
After living in Germany for 4 years it was hard to leave. We had awesome memories and life milestones made there. We had great friends and highly involved church callings. We both had high expectations for England and although it hasn't been a fair fight, the UK life hasn't fulfilled my dreams yet. I know it can never be the same but theres no reason why life at Mildenhall can't be as good as Ramstein, it just needs more time and sunshine! Things aren't as bad as I'm making them sound it's just they aren't as good as I'd like them to be. When I return, England will hopefully be in spring and site seeing can start! I'm excited to see everyone and I'll try my best to come to you so you don't have to rearrange your life but remember I am lugging around a 2 year old so days start late and end early.

It might take a year or two but you will like it eventually. Thats what I was told about Cardston and it took me about a year and a half to be ok with it and if I had to live there forever, I would be ok. It will come, I promise!!! HOw fun to come to canada. Hope you have a good trip. I'm sure you will.
Yeah! We are so EXCITED to see you again!!
I know how you feel! Good for you!
you will feel like a new woman when you come back....(i hope) :)
Enjoy lots of love and laughter with your friends and family.
I'm jealous.
I hope you have a great visit in Canada. I agree, Ramstein is a great place. I don't know if anything can top the life changing experiences that we've had here. Hopefully England will work out for the best. You guys deserve it!
