No Fair!

Chris obviously made it to Washington...
because he is enjoying a chocolate dip cone with Dad. I'm so jealous! Dairy Queen dip cones are like a Fields family tradition. As kids dad and mom used to take us there after family home evenings or for a special family date night. It was such a treat for us as kids. I don't think Chris understands how special he should feel that dad and mom took him there. I can't wait for him to come to Utah and get me, so I can have a chocolate dipped cone too!

It's Official...

Chris is a Ranger! He finally graduated RIP and we were so excited when we found out he was going to be stationed at Ft. Lewis, WA rather than Georgia. Since he had his truck there, he was given a week to drive to WA to report on base. Knowing that it would not take him an entire week to get there, he decided to stop in Utah to see me for a few day. Chris and his friend Josh from RIP headed out west! He sent me his picture from the road to let me know he was almost here.
They got here on Thursday and were able to stay until Sunday morning. It was so nice to see him after so long. We mosting just hung out and spent time together. We went to Provo to see his aunt and cousins. It was fun to see them and they really enjoyed seeing Chris and listening to all his stories. Sunday came too fast and it was hard to say good-bye AGAIN. At least this time I know he will be back in a few weeks to get me. He has to report to base in WA and check in, then they allow him to leave to move his family (ME). I can't wait to see him again...I better get to packing!
