Michael's deployment...

Michael met with the head chaplain from Fort Hood today. She came to Fort Jackson and took all nine of the chaplains headed to Fort Hood out to lunch. They will learn next week who they will be attached to. They are all ready to know. But, they did learn that they will be deployed any time between December and February. At least we know that for certain. We are praying that Michael will be deployed in December. Our main concern is we don't want him to miss Victoria's 16th birthday. If he is deployed in December, he will only miss her 15th birthday. 

So, that is the update as of today. On a *brighter* note, I went shopping for a formal gown today. Michael and I are attending the Chaplain's Regimental Ball Friday night. It will be our first formal event, and we are excited about it. I am very glad that my friend, Virginia Mace, gave me her notes about how to "behave" at a formal affair and how to handle the receiving line. So, thank you, Virginia! I am going to read over those notes again!

Until next time...have a blessed day!
