Coming Home Soon!

Scott left the first week of June for San Angelo, Texas. He has been gone for 3 and half long weeks. He is at Rescue School learning and working hard. I have been counting down the days for him to come home. Today only 3 days left. I am looking forward to his arrival home on Saturday. We have a great weekend planned. It is going to busy. Thanks to everyone for being there for me. Thanks Justin for mowing the lawn and Dad for taking care of the things I can't always do while Scott is away. We both owe you big time. It makes Scott feel so much better to know that I have such great support system around me.

Torre


This picture makes me laugh. Alot of people would say Torre does not get as much attention as Jeter. Well this picture says it all. She was getting mad because we kept taking pictures of Jeter. Torre has become an important member of our family as well. Her and Jeter get along well but sometimes you can tell when she is annoyed by him. She loves to play with her scratching post and cuddle at night. I would call Torre Scott's cat. She loves Scott and when he is gone I rarely see her. She greets Scott every morning when he comes home from work. I can tell she is starting to miss him because she came and sat on my lap the other day. With both Jeter and Torre in the house there is never a dull moment.

Jeter


Let me introduce Jeter. People would say Jeter is spoiled. Well I would have to agree. He has become a member of our family.He loves taking trips to Grandma and Grandpa Ratcliff's and loves it when Grandma and Grandpa Oder stop by. But most of all he loves Aunt Jordan and Uncle Steve. I tend to get a little upset when he pays more attention to them than me. He loves when Jordan and Steve spend the night and take care of him. He has become an important part of all of our lives.

Welcome to Our Blog!!




Scott and I have been happily married since February 25th 2006. We have a dog and cat named Jeter and Torre. With them around there is never a quiet moment in our house. I grew up in Council Bluffs, IA and Scott is from Red Oak, IA. I am currently working at Union Pacific Railroad. I am part of 4 generations to work for the railoroad and Scott is a Firefighter at Offutt Air Force Base. Scott served 4 years in the United States Air Force. I am so proud to tell people he served our country. Scott and I are loyal supporters of the troops. We have our American Flag hanging up every single day. I decided to do this blog for those people rather they live close or far away or we talk to them everyday or once in a while, they are able to catch up on what is going on in our lives.
