I guess I should start off my saying, my name is Nicole. I am an Army wife to an amazing man in the military intelligence field. In 2012 I got married, graduated from Clemson, and started preparing for our temporary move to Arizona. Currently, my husband is attending MI BOLC (the officer leadership course where they learn really neat top secret stuff) until October of this year. I originally wanted to start blogging so our friends and family could keep up with us during this time but now I have even more aspirations!
Being at MI BOLC is a whirlwind from before you even get here until the day you leave (I don't know that for sure but I have a hunch). My husband, David, and I thought it would be really helpful for future Lieutenants to know what to expect and what life is like at Fort Huachuca.
Secondly, I am an avid blog reader and have been able to connect with so many Godly women and families through reading about their daily triumphs and struggles in their blogs. I have never thought of blogging as a form of missions however now that I have seen it in my own life I think it is such an excellent opportunity. SO with that being said, I will share our ups and downs, blessings, challenges, and all the ways the Lord is touching our lives.
Finally, while we are here I am not working, so I have a LOT of free time. I have found some good ways to put this free time to use, like volunteering and helping our families with little projects, however this blog will be good for me because it will encourage me to do the things I love (and some things I don't love as much) either way I will be able to share them with you all, even if its just the people I force to read this :)
Anyway, as you can tell I am a talker, a long winded talker, so hopefully I will not bore you all to death (well I guess in that case you would simply stop reading). But I will again follow in Dixie's footsteps and post something I have planned to blog about:
- My cooking adventures (in a hotel room this can be interesting to say the least)
- Our travels to Fort Huachuca from Virginia
- My looming fitness goals
- Our budgeting (this should be a good one- Day 1 of budgeting is already hard)
- What new LTs coming to Fort Huachuca can expect
- Anything and everything else! (especially future plans because that is one of my favorite topics)
Goodbye for now!
