It's been a while... sorry

So I know I'm a bad blogger.  It's been a week since I've written.  A lot has gone on.  William finished the corps!!! Yay! I only cried a little at the last step off ever.  And I definitely skipped the second pass which shows how much I will truly miss William's corps lifestyle.  We packed up all of his stuff and put it in a measly three large plastic bins.  Kinda sad... but very easy to move! Here's some final review pics:

The Seniors

Wiliam and I - hopefully the last picture with him in this uniform

The girlfriends/fiances... we keep each other sane!

He moved into a new duplex with a bunch of his chemical engineering friends so this semester will surely be a blast.

I accomplished a ton of wedding stuff and also celebrated my birthday. We went to the Melting Pot with my mom and her family and my dad threw me a "Robey birthday" complete with fajitas and margaritas. 

We also made a few trips to the bay.  It's still surreal going down there.  I have been going to San Leon, Texas since I was 2 months old. And it doesn't even look familiar to me.  There are places where you used to not be able to see the water and now you can.  My mom bought a motor home and my aunt and uncle bought a trailer.  So we have gone from 4 houses and one motor home to 1 house and 3 motor homes. We joke that we are becoming trailer trash.  Although, my aunt insists that our new arrangements are only temporary.  We are waiting for the new laws to emerge as far as building codes go.  After they quit fighting about how tall new buildings have to be, we will start to rebuild.  William and my brother, Colton, put our brand new jet ski in the water. William had fun riding it around... but it's still very dangerous in the bay.  From our house there are several places where we can still see large debris sticking up.  My aunt let my two cousins ride with William but her (and I) were terrified that he would run into something.  Oh well... things are starting to get back to normal... but there is still a long way to go.
