I never really considered starting a blog...I don't really have too much time on my hands with which to keep one up.  However I felt it not only advantageous, but necessary since we are about to embark on an incredible journey half way across the world as we get stationed in Okinawa Japan.  Seeing as it is already hard enough to find time to communicate with loved ones with three babies, and when you add to that the sheer quantity of my family and the soon to be 11-14 hour time differences, this just seemed to be the best way to stay in touch.  I will not be doing much updating as of yet, since we are still approximately six weeks out from our PCS.  With our immunizations holding up our medical clearance, I know we will be scrambling to get out of here come the end of August and there is plenty to do in the meantime.  But I'm sure once I hit Okinawa, and the dust begins to settle, I will have a little more time to blog. :)
