Staying Connected

When Scott was in the military, he ended up being stationed at Fort Hood, TX.  While there, one of his best friends, former roommate, and classmate from West Point was stationed there too.  I’d met his friend before, at our wedding, but it was in Texas that I first met his wife. 

Even though we both were going through some hard times, we share some great memories from our stay in that small town.  I think we both were dealing with our own personal situations and I love to be able to say we’ve overcome and grown so much since then!  She really has blossomed into an amazing woman, all while living the heroic life of an officer’s wife.  (It really takes a strong woman to be able to stand through all the deployments and military craziness that goes on in the Army!)

And somehow through all the moves and changes, we’re still in touch.  That’s why I was delighted to hear that she FINALLY started a blog of her own!  ;)  She is currently living at West Point while her husband teaches at the very college he graduated from.  I love the pictures she posted recently on her blog because it reminds me of our trip to NY during Scott’s reunion.  That and it makes me think about how Scott and I used to dream of him one day teaching there.  I guess you could say I’m living vicariously through my friend right now!  ;)  

So anyway, enough with my rambling…go check her out…

You can find her on my blogroll as The Long Way Around
