My son will be home next month!!!
Jordan will be stateside April 2nd, in Ohio the 14th woo~hoo !!!! He took leave and will be able to stay until May 6 ! Since he has been deployed the last two years (with only a few month break between time) we decided (we'll he did) We are going SKYDIVING!! I asked him what he wanted to do and he said "take my mum skydiving" umm..ok, fark yay, count me in, let's rock! As long as we can go out backwards, I might barf if I have to look the way I fall LOL. He'll be on my back since he is certified. He and his dad are going to Talidaga (sp?) NASCAR. He want's to go to Shipshiwana to shop and eat Amish food LOL
But on a side note...looks like Afganistan in August.

WOOHOOOOO!! Great News!! Enjoy Yourselves!
P.s. Skydiving is sooo awesome. Once youre soaring and seeing how beautiful everything is, you will forget all about having had jumped (does that make sense?? lol)
Anyway, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats!!! Enjoy the time you get with him...
If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun.

That's so cool. Hope you have fun skydiving. I'm too afraid to try something like that. I'm not a big fan of heights so jumping out of a plane isn't something that I think I could do. LOL

How exciting! I know everytime my little cousin comes back, we all (from MO, Texas, & OK) get together to spend time with him. Congrats and have a good time.

Thank you !! I am excited!! He was upset to miss the girl's birthday's by a few weeks, but said he'd take them out shopping. LOL Sometimes when he calls he asks for Dawson first, that's his princess even though she's his little sister by fifteen years
I was watching the tape of Jordan and my nephew when they went to Indiana skydiving last year before they went to Iraq..uummm..can I have second thought? Looks skeery, to me anyhow,but they were all smiles and wind blown smiles too
I go to Albequeque the 20-25th of April to see my dad,mom and dad's family,so during that time he will go stay at his dad's and go to the race.He'll go up and see my parents a few days after he gets home (he's based at Camp Pendelton CA.,they are about 5 1/2 hours away) We are hoping my nephew gets back from Afganistan (he's due home first week of May,he's stationed at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton,which is two hours from me) before Jordan leaves on the 6th.
I know the month will just drag and take forever for the 14th to get here lol
