The grades come rolling in...
Hi Everybody!!!
School is finally over!!! (at least till the 16th) I was so excited yesterday that I went to the beach with a peopel magazine and stayed all day!!! It was wonderful! It seems school this sememster was a bit more difficult. I got a "C" in French, but I think that I may take up Spanish...so much more useful. Other than that I have done well.
So it has been a while since I have had a moment to get on here and keep everyone posted.... so here is whats new in VA...
So I left my job...the crazy boss lady finally got the best of me! Turns out I am good at leasing but not so hot a dealing with brickwalls! :) It turned out not to be a huge deal, but I wish it could have worked out. I miss the girls I worked with but I am sure we will keep in touch.
Frank is doing great he finally finished his Chief package and will know something around the end of June. It is so cute how anxious he is. Frank never gets nervous so it is kinda nice to see another side of him. I am sure he will do fine. Not everyone makes it their first time to board, but I am sure with his record he will give a great go at it!
So we have finally made some cute adjustments to the house!!! Finally the livingroom is painted!!!!!!! It is finally starting to look like a home and not some college dorm!! We have even taken some time to do a little landscaping! It really has been fun getting everything together...alot of work but fun! I will put pictures up when I can. My dad the handy man will be up in July and we will be doing some big changes then. I just love my dad...good work for a low cost! It is nice having him come up! Hopefully now that our house is not such a construction zone we can have more of you up!
This weekend should be intresting. Not only our my in-laws coming up, but we are taking a trip to DC with them. We are taking the train up which will be fun. I have never taken a ride on a train. We are taking a segway tour of our nation's capital...if I come back with injuries don't laugh. I promise good pictures! Hope everyone is doing well and your familys are happy! Much love to you all!

Exciting News!!!!
Hello!!!
So I know I have been MIA lately, but I have very exciting news!!!! For all of you civilians out there you might not get how big of a deal it is, but for my military peeps out there you will get it. Frank just found out that he made board for chief advancement!!!!!! Whoooo Whoooooo!!! He of course still has to get his record and evaluations together, but he has a VERY strong chance! He has been a recruiter and is now an Instructor so that will look fantastic! I am such a proud wife!!!!!! He is gonna look so good in that Khaki uniform!!!!!! Everyone keep your fingers crossed for him. He has worked so hard to get there he deserves it!
As for me I am doing great. The new job is crazy stressful and my boss is a mess, but my co-workers are great. They really make it fun to be there in the chaos. Pray I get lots of leases people!! :) As for school I am doing great. Straight A's just the way I have to have it. Yes I am bragging my butt off but as my girl Heather knows...we deserve to brag on that 4.0!!!! We work our butts off to be there! I have started going to the gym four days out of the week and I tell you it is so hard for me to get my sorry self there, but I am starting to feel the reward. Frank being the darling husband just took me on a shopping trip to celebrate my first 5 lbs....nothing gives motivation like J.Crew and Burberry! What a wonderful husband I have!
Other than that things are just running along like a well oiled machine. Can you all believe that Frank and I will be celebrating our second wedding anniversary next month!!! Where does the time go! God definitely has blessed me with an amazing husband. I tell ya girls (and guys) I live a charmed life.
Hope everyone is happy and their families safe and in good spirits! I love you and miss you all!!!

Spring Break is over...
So last week Frank and I both took off of work for Spring Break!!! Tons of fun!! We were going to try to go to his parents mountain house, but we got snowed out...instead we went up to Williamsburg. I love going up there because not only do we get to hang out with our best pals Jason and Kim and their kiddies, but we also go to the best shopping place ever!!! Other than that we just sat around the house watching movies and playing scrabble. You know it sounds boring, but it is really so nice to just be together.
Other than that things are pretty boring. Just living life, going to school and working. Frank is really happy with his job. Teaching has really suited him. If only every duty station involved teaching. However we don't have much longer till he retires and we choose where will settle down. As for my new job it is strange. I have a really "weird" boss, but the job itself is alot of fun. I have met so many people!! We are actually getting renovated too and the finished product has lots of appeal!
We hope all of our friends out there in cyber space are well and their families happy! We love you all..till next time....Samantha and Frank

Our Family Blog...
So my cousin Jennifer emailed me her family blog and I thought it was sooo cute! So this week I was sitting around bored to tears being off work and school for Spring Break so I decided to start a blog for Frank and I. Being so far from home and not one to just call people up to chat...this could be a great way to keep intouch with the people we love and they can keep up with us. Not to mention what a fun way to keep a journal. So keep checking back to see what is going on with us...I will try to keep this up better than my other sites! Much love to you all!
