Blizzard Bloghop!

If you're stopping by for the Blizzard Bloghop, welcome!!! Allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Sarah. I'm a 20 something Army wife. 

Though, I wasn't always an Army wife.

This is my husband, Joe, sans uniform. =P

Joe and I met in college in 2006. Neither one of us had plans that included the military. We were going to graduate and become teachers. He a choir director, and me a history teacher. After graduation from college in 2008, we got married in June. Then we moved to North Carolina to start our lives together. After many interviews, crappy jobs, one good job and some ups and downs, Joe got laid off in February of 2009. A few weeks later, he met a US Army recruiter at a job fair. The rest, my friends, is history.

Though he could have gone the OCS route, he chose to enlist instead. (He's actually currently trying to get into OCS. Silly hubby. =P) After about 9 months of training (BCT and AIT), he got his orders for our first duty station. We currently live here:

In mostly sunny Hawaii. So while most of you are covered in snow and blankets, drinking hot chocolate, I'm sitting on my couch in a Tshirt and shorts. Not to make you jealous or anything. ;-) 

I know I said that both of us live here, but I sort of lied. My hubby is currently residing in a CHU in the sandbox. Just 2 short months after we PCSed here, he left. We knew it could happen, but I think both of us were hoping it wouldn't. 

This blog is sort of like my home. I'm here a lot, and I talk about a lot of things. Sometimes I use it to vent my frustrations about deployment. Other times I use it to brag about my sweetie of a hubby. I also like to show off my newest creations. =) I have just taken up sewing, thanks to encouragement from my bestie. I also enjoy reading, scrapbooking, baking, Grey's Anatomy (seriously) and laughing at my silly dog, Jasper.

Thanks for stopping by! Feel free to look around here before you head back to Household 6 Diva to check out more blogs! Hope to see more of you around here!


Aloha!
