Matt called last night!!
Matt called last night!!!!
No news on dates but planning is in the works.
This planning is way to slow and I think I might have to take a trip over there to speed things up!
He said it has snuck over a 100 degrees a few times,but it is not as bad as it was when he got there!
Thanks again for keeping Matt involved through the blog and for all the packages sent.
Love

hey
ok so sorry its been so long since i've made a posting here but internet connection is always iffy. so i was finally able to sneak away from the office for a little while tonight and see Toby Keith perform on a USO tour. I've always wanted to see him and even thought it wasn't a full out concert it was still pretty cool especially when he was signing his patriotic songs and needless to say "we'll put a boot in your a**" was sung pretty loud.
Really nothing new to report on here. Not nearly as exciting as my last deployment was but i guess that does make the mom happy. Things are slowly moving along and we have at least started planning the trip home but that makes it hard as well b/c we still have a while to go. I can't imagine if i had gotten over here on time and had to spend the full 15 months. i think the shoulder surgery was worth the pain for that sole reason.
Amanda you will be happy to know that we have both Bonefish Grill and Mellow Mushrooms down in Savannah and i'm a huge fan of both. i can't remember if i've mentioned before but it looks like i'm going to be living with 3 other guys in a house downtown when i get back. still not sure how i feel with going from living on my own for the last 5 yrs to 3 housemates but we are all leaving about 6months after we get back and all want a place downtown so it just works out. i don't think i'd be doing it for longer than 6 months but should be a good way to have a blast when i first get back. ok well thats all i have from here hope everyone is doing great and hopefully i'll see everyone at the weddings if i make it back in time.

news
Hi Everyone!
I want to let you know that I am moving back to MD. I was offered a job at William Hill Manor, it is a assisted living facility in Easton, it is also an EMA community. I will be working in the recreation dept and I start May 1st. I am really excited, they are also breaking ground for an additional 50 beds to open in about 16 months which will open the door to lots of other opportunities.
It was a really hard decision for me since Hannaford treated me so well and I do really love maine. However, I hated be so far from my family and friends, plus I knew I was not passionate about retail. I am leaving in good terms tho, my boss told me that I could always call her if I changed my mind. I just wanted to let you know what was going on!
I will be living at home and communiting at first, until i find someplace closer. That is if dad lets me move back!!
I miss you guys and cant wait to see you!!!!

Top Five Reasons to Visit Amanda and Kenny Down Yonder
5) Our cherry blossoms bloom before your cherry blossoms. Note: This picture was taken a week ago. I have since been informed that y'all have these now too.
4) Target has really cute colorful purses. My mom said these were listed in the Sun as one of the "must haves" for Spring. 
3) BangBang Shrimp, huge scallops, Shrimp Diablo, and the best Pinot Grigiot ever are just five minutes away at Bonefish Grill.
2) You too can sing along to Breathe's "Hand's to Heaven" and other 80s tunes on Kenny's iPod. If you've never heard of that tune, you should download it. There aren't words...
1) Duh - you can play Rock Band 
Not making the list (in no particular order):
- The word's best pizza at Mellow Mushrooom makes the perfect post-Pinot Grigiot lunch
- Kenny's kind of a big deal. We can Tivo him.
- You can stop and visit Bobby on your way down at Virginia Tech. And give Anna's alma mater a "holla"
- You can fly on Skybus for just $10. Oh wait....no you can't. But its just a six hour drive.

It is warmer, and we will not see any more pictures of the trip until he comes home. That was about it,he did get a kick out of the family members that are still willing to give John the benifit of the doubt!!!!!

Happy B-Day, Will!
I know we do not acknowledge all cousin birthdays on the blog, but given that today is a milestone b-day for Will, I thought I'd give him a shout out. Happy 21st B-Day, Will. You'll actually be able to toast your big brother at his wedding and join the "older cousins" at the Zippy Lewis lounge at the Dunes.
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday!
