ThE ArMy wIvEs!!!


These are my girls!!! Haylee, Nicole, Kasidee and me. Our husbands went to Iraq together. I didn't know them when the guys first left. I was so miserable at first and no one understood! I prayed for help. I decided to scrapbook Erik's Iraq pictures for something to do. I had never scrap booked before so I went to pebbles in my pocket. They had a section of paper dedicated to the military. As I stood there , I noticed a girl around my age looking at the paper too. I felt like I should talk to her. I asked if her husband was in Iraq too? She said yes! She asked me for my number. She called me and invited me to scrap book at Nicole's. I went and met all these girls. The lord had answered my prayers! I spent all my time with them. Mostly Nicole. They were my rocks. I love them so much. This past weekend we got together and had BBQ. We had to get Pictures of all our babies cause they are all close in age.

Our cute hubbies!! One went to bed early!The babes!!!
Bentlee, and Avery
These two were born a month a part!
Max and Bailey were born pretty close together too! Too cute!!

That is so great that you had girls who were in your situation going through the same things as you! It's amazing how prayers get answered and it all seems so simple! Cute babies... Ava is the smallest one... so cute and petite, like her mommy! :)

I'm so glad that you had such great friends that really understood everything that you were going through! Heavenly Father answers prayers! Cute babes too!

I am so glad you had people to relate with. It is amazing how the power of prayer works and how you receive inspiration and then you realize how it has answered your prayers. I think Ashlee meant to say Avery! Anyways, great that you guys got together!

Hi Savanah! I don't know if you remember me, but I thought I would drop a line. Your little girl is so cute, and that is a cool picture of the army wives. You are all so strong! Good luck to all you are doing in the future, sounds exciting. Maybe we can stay in touch. Blogging works wonders that way :).
