Who are these people??? Only more of my extended and growing family.Stephanie has been a part of my family for over 20 years now. She and
Nick got married a few years ago, but Nick has been in the U.S. Military
for much of their marriage and far away from Stephanie. Stephanie
got the greatest gift for Valentine's Day. Nick came home from his finial
tour and he is home safe and sound and now the two of them can finally start enjoying
married life together. Happy Valentine's Day Nick and Stephanie!
No more Adrift but together once again. God is Awesome!!!
I love you guys sooooo very much and tearfully overjoyed for you.
Happy Valentine's Day to you all!

Oh, I can relate. I was separated from my husband at least 60% of the time he was in the military. The longest separation was 14 months. Our second child was an infant when he left and a toddler who didn't know him when we were able to join him overseas. It was a difficult life. What a blessing it is for him to be home now and safe. Happy Valentines Day!
Nester, you just take good care and hope you have had a wonderful Valentine's day so far...sounds like your house is full. I do hope you can catch some good rest (maybe tomorrow?) My mother had a great 75th yesterday..I am pooped (we brought the party)..but it's just a blessing to be there and enjoy the family. Today was a day of pancakes, treats, housework, and now catching up with my favorite people. You are one of them. Thank you so much for the visit today - you are on my mind with hopes that you get to rest after that big project. Can't wait to hear/read about it when you can, and hope that this next one is a good one to you! Take care and hugs, my friend! Shirley
you know, you're such a multi-talented lady, thats why i simply adore you.
hugs-kisses!!!

How romantic!
Hello sweet Vanessa. It seems to me that all the people in your family extended or flexed are all very happy. I bet it has a lot to do with your contagious enthusiasm. I wish that I knew you when I lived in NJ, but wait, you may have just been a young girl or even a baby.
A really sweet Valentine's story with a happy ending.
What a wonderful Valentine's story! This is fantastic. So glad they can be together and that God spared him to be with his family!
Wonderful, wonderful!
Blessings upon you, Stephanie and Nick!!
Your work is looking as fab as always! That's really great for your friends:)
Wonderful news, I'm very happy for this great looking couple! My husband was in the Navy for four years while we were engaged, everyone said we were crazy - well, here we are 18 years later! Ain't love grand!
That is the BEST Valentine's. Their smiles say it all. Awwwwwww! Many happy years to them!
What a beautiful story to share. One of my closest friends has dealt with being a military wife her entire married life. Her husband is a black hawk helicopter pilot and has done a tour overseas as well. We saw first hand how many sacrificies her family made while he was away, but thankfully his is safely home now too. Very kind of you to share this story with a happy ending as well.
Dearest Sweet Sweetheart Vanessa! Thank you for your kind and supportive words. I am so tired from removing the large images. I fell asleep editing my Picasa album last night! I feel so much better.
have a lovely weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!
xxxooo to you and your family!
