Bye Bye Black Cloud

It has been a long 7 months, and it coming to a end seemed to be so far out of reach and into the distance. in the last 7 months..


~we moved to new Orleans

~was exposed to black toxic mold

~Julian had staph




~and lets not forget that terrible virus he had for a good week..



~& the two ER visits we made because of the dang on virus





~Josh's ship attacked by pirates..





~we got in one car accident

~pulled over by a police officer twice!!!

~hit a pot hole..

~finally moved back to Virginia where our living arrangements fell through..

~got blessed with a amazing home.. that we love..

~Julian was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes...

and life just hasn't been the same since that point & everything else seems to be a big blurr.
But we survived!.. we are stronger people.. better people.. and so much closer with God.

On Sunday, August 15th, Josh finally returned home to us!.. Julian and I could not be happier to have him home... and for this black cloud of a deployment to be gone and over with.When Julian saw his daddy, he could do nothing but squeal a out of control giggle. He had a smile a mile long, and could not have been happier to be in the arms of his own personal hero, his daddy. Julian recognized his daddy, and bonded with out skipping a beat.
