Exactly a week from now, I will sign my first lease with my husband. HOLY HELL!
Not only will this be the first lease I will ever sign, but it will also be the first time I will ever live anywhere else but my parent's house. It's a little scary but after living in their house for two years with my husband and our son it's become kind of a hassle. I don't think we would be moving out right now if he hadn't been reasigned to another base somewhere else. It's okay though, all my friends had their college adventures to different countries, now I get my own adventure here in America to a place I never been with my family that I love dearly. I will enjoy is every step of the way.
In other news, this is one of Benjamin's best friends, Gabe. [Shout it out to JoJo]. I was looking at this picture today and realizeing how hard it's going to be on Ben. Sure I've tried explaining it to him, but I'm not sure if he understands it. Like our friend just had her twins, but was able to explain it all and show her that there will be two babies in a little while. She had her pregnant belly to help explain it as well. With Ben, I feel like it's going to be a little harder. Maybe I'm just crazy and he actually gets it, but I could be dead wrong. Guess only time will tell.
We leave July 6th at 4am to go sign our lease...holy hell.

And the countdown begins...
In less than a month, my family and I will be moving to Belle Chasse, LA from Chicago, IL. That's a 15 hour drive from here....
Who am I? Let me tell you.
I'm Therese and I recently got married to Kristian who is a Marine. We have a son named Benjamin who will be 2 on Monday! [June 21st]. 3 weeks before our wedding we found out that Kristian has been reassigned to live in Belle Chasse, LA. It's scary but it's something that was going to be done eventually...whether we moved to a different town in Illinois or out of state due to something like this. I've lived in Illinois my entire life so this is something that will be very different for me but fun. I'll get to be a wife and a mother in our own home. [We live with my parents].
July 17th is the day we are moving and the day that is coming way too fast. I have amazing friends here that are old and new. My block friends are priceless and our children get along so well they're all best friends. My friends from grade school[sixpack] are just as amazing and all graduating from college this year.
This blog will be about our trip from Illinois to Louisiana everything in between and back again. Something that will give me something to do and enjoy while down there adjusting...plus keeping intouch with friends...letting them know how things are going. Enjoy.
