Ready...Set.....

So much has happened over the last month. Dayne graduated from Tech School mid-August, but had to wait for our passports to come in before out processing and going back to Kansas. Thankfully I was able to be with him through most of his time in Mississippi. We had many appointments to go to and a ton of paperwork for our first PCS while waiting for the passports to arrive. We thought when they finally came that Dayne would take the next week to out process, I would go home to get everything ready to move, and we would have a couple weeks before moving to Japan. Much to our surprise, this process all took place much faster than we realized.

Our passports finally came in and Dayne was told to be out processed within 24 hours. I ran over to join him for appointments and we spent the rest of the day frantically trying to get a weeks worth of paperwork and appointments done in a couple hours. The next morning we flew back to Kansas and had a week to be ready to leave for Japan.

We arrived in Kansas Wednesday night and spent the next couple days making phone calls and driving between Meade and Protection visiting family. Starting Monday we packed up the apartment, moved stuff to storage, and were checked out of the apartment by this afternoon. Dayne flies back to Mississippi tomorrow, and we both leave for Japan Friday. Hopefully everything goes well and we meet in Dallas for our long flight as planned. Let the adventure begin!
