Isn't Technology Great?

Fun times at Gardner's Village

If you haven't been there during the Halloween season or if you just haven't been there, it's a fun place to go hang out for a Saturday afternoon!

I just thought I'd post some cute pics from the past week.  I've been busy since Lance left, that makes time go by a little faster.  Ellie misses her daddy and when she sees pictures of him or hears him on the phone, she gets so excited.  

We're down to just 4 weeks now.  I should have learned from our last experience that it's not a good thing to count down, but it's hard not to.  I usually do pretty good the first week that Lance is gone, but after that I really start to miss that boy.  I am very thankful though for all the technology that we have these days.  It makes it so much easier to go through these times apart when we can talk on the phone a few times a week and e-mail everyday.  Have you ever really just stopped to think about how it was back in the day when they would have to wait weeks or months for letters to reach each other.  I don't know how they did it.  They had to be much better women than I am.  

Baldee, if you're reading this, I'll tell Lance to stop by for a visit.  He said they're letting them go do a little sight seeing.  I'll just tell him to pull into J town and look for the people who aren't like the others.
