The Orders Say......



While I was in PA with the boys we finally got word to where we're headed next....Fort Knox, Kentucky. People may cringe when they hear "Kentucky", but we're actually pretty excited about it. We were really hoping to get Ft. Belvoir, Va or Aberdeen PG in Maryland. This would have been nice since they're closer to family. Kentucky is definitely not the worst place we could be going. There was a chance that we'd be staying here in CA or FT. Leavenworth, KS. We're ready to move on and get to our next place. Plus the cost of living in KY compared to CA....much better!!!!

Knox is only 10 1/2 hours away from Pottsville. This means no more flights and crazy travel around the holidays. YEAH!! I can pack up the kids and head home for a long weekend or people can drive to us. It's going to be really nice to not have to fly cross country to see our families. I'm excited that there'll be more trips home to see everyone we've been missing for so long!

Tom went to OBC in Fort Knox after West Point so it's going to be familiar as well. I visited there many times. We have a favorite Mexican restaurant, El Camino. There's a really cool haunted corn maze around Halloween and Fort Knox has the school for Armor guys so we're bound to run into people we know. We also LOVE Louisville! It's about 45 minutes away with tons of things to do including going to baseball games. There's a minor league baseball team there, the Louisville River Bats. Those games are so much fun!!! The boys are going to love it!

Anyway, it's great to know where we're heading next. The move will come in October and we're looking forward to it! Kentucky....here we come! (in 6 months. hahahha)
