Flag Update

We have made it into the blue stars! Woohoo! Day 326.
The girls were very excited to be putting on the pretty blue stars this morning.
I have kind of been delaying posting an update on the countdown because the dates for Justin's homecoming keep getting changed...pushed back and then moved back up. It was really frustrating for a while and I was a little worried when they were saying Justin wouldn't be home before we are supposed to be heading to Disney World...but it sounds like the flag should actually be finished on the exact day Justin gets home (give or take a day...but that is expected when dealing with military.) We are keeping our fingers crossed that he will be home sooner rather than later.
Justin has been really busy lately, and has had some pretty horrific missions...Things have started to pick up over there and I am definitely glad Justin will be home soon.

The countdown is almost done!! You are a strong lady and an inspiration to many! We are so excited that Ju will be home soon. Tony says they have talked a little on the phone and he seems to be doing well. We admire you both, as I am sure you know. Hugs to you and the girls!!

I love the flag! That was such a great way to count down. Sounds like Justin is getting home at the right time! Hope it all works out with days and all that! Have a great time at Disney!
