Welcome!

Hello All!

I was inspired by my beautiful Sister-in-Law Tabitha to start blogging. I figured with family all over the country it would be a great way for people to keep in touch.
The next time around when Ben is deployed it will be a great way for people stay up to speed with what is going on in his life. With his communication so limited it is hard for him to keep in touch with as many people as he wishes he was able to. I will be able to post messages from Ben for everyone to read!
Right now I am just working on getting everything in place for when Ben gets home. I, of course, put everything off until the last minute. I am glad I decided to do so because it is keeping my days filled to the brim, it helps them pass at a nice quick pace. I have a big huge surprise for Ben when he gets home, not only is he coming home to a new home, there is going to be an ADORABLE 8 week old Chocolate Lab puppy! I have done a ton of research and really feel that I found a great dog, after the disaster of Bella I was very wary of getting a new dog but Ben talks about it constantly and, has mentioned about a zillion times how much he would love to have a Chocolate Lab.  I am pretty sure that I have Ben totally fooled. He thinks we are waiting to get a puppy from a litter that will be born about a month after he gets home.  
I will post some pictures of the new puppy once Ben meets him. I am going to pick him up tomorrow afternoon. The breeder is awesome and gave us a discount as a "Thank You" to Ben. It was very touching. 
Anyways, that is pretty much the scoop from Lacey. I hope you all find a way to come visit, we have plenty of room! 
God Bless!
