Meet Josh and Heidi Mc Faul

Hello to everyone....I have never blogged before but here it goes....

Well I met Josh in October of 2003 and we have been together ever since. We dated for awhile and then Josh asked me to marry him, in November of 04. We had our date set for April of 05. We just wanted to be married and start or life together as husband and wife. Well that ment we needed to get started with the wedding planning. Josh was NO help there. His answer to everything was whatever you want, and thats fine, or I dont care. Well that got old FAST. But I was not going to let that stop us from getting married I would just plan it on my own. Then in January I was sooo sick and went to the doctor to find out that we were going to have a baby. That was awesome we were soooo excited we could not wait. everything was going fine until March of 05 when I woke up one morning and was not feeling well I went to the doctor and
found out that we were not going to be having the baby. On March 25 we had

Zaine Cooper Mc Faul. We were very sad and didnt know how to deal but we made it through that. It was hard going home form the hospital and not having a baby there to feed and hold and rock to sleep, bath, play with, and be parents to. It took some time and we were back on our feet, but with the the wedding less then a month away we were not sure how we were supposed to have the best day of our lives with the thought that we just had a baby and not ready to have another big event we wanted to wait. So we waited til October 21st 2005 and we said I do at 10 am and have been happy together since.

In April of 05 Josh joined the Army. Wow we didnt know what we had in store for us then. Josh and I spent the rest of that summer together and then Josh went to Basic and Ait. He left in Nov. and came home in December and I thought that was hard to be away from him. But it was all worth it when he graduated on March 17th of 06. He came home and we worked at our bar we had in Athens for awhile and then Josh decided that He wanted to be Active duty Army. For about 2 months I didnt get to see him He moved to TX and I stayed in Wisconsin. I finally wanted to be with him so one day I woke up and decided that WAS the day I was going to TX packed my stuff,(well the stuff that I could fit In my car) and drove to TX. I was by myself but I loved my husband and wanted to be with him. So Yucky(our dog at the time) and I took 2 days on the road and went. We got there I was happy and could not wait to be with him. We lived there for 2 years. In that 2 years I was alone for a little over a year cause Yep It was Joshs turn to go to Iraq.

IT WAS A LONG YEAR, but what made it easy was going back and forth to Wisconsin. I think I was back and forth so much they could have named roads after me. I even brought friends with me that there husbands also were deployed and they wanted to get out of Fort Hood TX. In November Josh came home and We were finally together again.

SO we soon found out that we were moving the ARMY said that we had to go to Fort Lewis WA. and I was happy one of the things that I was So happy about was getting to see the country and travel the roads of the United states. We Left TX on April 1st and and got to WA on April 8th we took time driving there so that we could stop and see the mountains and spend some time together since we were apart for so long.

That brings us to now. We are now living in Lakewood WA and enjoying life together in the beauty that WA has to offer.

Well I bet you cant wait to see some pictures well here they are..
