Casey News

I know you've all been anxiously awaiting new news of Casey, and I'm here to deliver!! Let me just say though, sometimes life can be VERY boring...especially on base. Casey's usual day consists of waking up at 3:30 AM (I KNOW...how awful), getting ready, eating breakfast, PTing, going to class, eating lunch, going back to class, getting out of school (and usually taking a nap), calling me!!!!, hanging out with friends, eating dinner, calling me again!!!,and going to bed early...WHEW!

Obviously, it can become very monotonous, but he's learned to rise above, and the weekends are a totally different story! Casey gets every other Friday off...and frankly those guys deserve it! He's got a good group of friends down there, and they spend the weekend playing video games, watching movies, scarfing down pizza, and shooting pool (along with other guy stuff I probably don't care to know about! Let's be honest, boys are weird and gross!).

You would think that after all those responsibilities, Casey wouldn't have time for anything else...WRONG! On Wednesday, Casey roped-up as a "White Rope".

White Ropes are basically Chaplin assistants. They hang out in the "fish bowl" (it's a multi-purpose building), and are there to support other airmen...pretty much being a brother to anyone and everyone! It's a perfect fit for Casey, he's always been a great listener and comrade.

But White Ropes also volunteer a lot too, and this was a huge bonus for Casey. He loves volunteering. So today, instead of sleeping in, he got up early to volunteer at the grade school on base. We're not exactly sure what he'll be doing, but he's hoping to get to play with all the kids at recess!

Side Note: Isn't my husband awesome!?! Don't you wish you had a guy like mine...who volunteers and plays with kids!?! Be jealous!!!!

So that's what's going on with Casey these days. He's pretty much become "Superman"!!!

On a more personal note, it seems like February is going to be a month of growing-closer for Casey and I. We might not be able to physically spend Valentine's Day together, but we are doing everything in our power to show each other affection and love...AWWW! I've got the best husband ever!!

till next time...
