24 hours Until We See His Face!

This time tomorrow, we will FINALLY be together!!!!!  After 2 long years apart, we will be reunited in one of the most magical ways possible!!!!!

My amazing Husband has been stationed in Germany for the last 2 years.  We have gotten to see him for holidays for a couple weeks, we were able to visit him for a couple months in Germany last summer, but this last 6 months has been the roughest on us.  The children have had it the roughest.  Our 8 year old son cries at night, our 4 year old daughter asks daily if he can come home now.  It breaks my heart not knowing how to help them. What makes it harder is keeping a secret from them.  I know when we are going to see him!

He tried to keep it a secret, but I found out that he was coming home 2 weeks sooner than we had originally planned.  The kids have been counting down the days with marbles in jars.  We found this idea on Pinterest.




So....how are we going to have this Magical reunion you ask.  All because of our Best Man and His amazing wife!!!!!  They happened to be at Disneyland the weekend I called him to ask if he knew Roy was coming home early.  Landre promised he didn't know anything (which he is usually the one in on the surprises WITH Roy) but that he was going to take care of everything since he NOW knew that Roy was planning on surprising us at Disneyland.  Roy had booked us (the kids and my mother and I) a room at the Disneyland hotel to celebrate our last days on our Annual Passes for Disneyland.  They expire May 20th and we won't be renewing them for the first time in over 15 years because we are moving to Guam this July.  Soooo, anyways, Our Best Man takes it upon himself to find someone, somewhere in Disneyland to help plan our reunion and then Disneyland Magic plans were underway!! Landre knows us better than most and has been working with the 'people behind the magic' for days now.  

While I know that I have to be at a certain spot at a certain time.....I have NO idea what is going to happen.  And the children.....they don't even know we are going to Disneyland for the weekend.  We have been able to do things to get ready while the oldest is in school, and even his teacher and the ladies in the office know what is going on and helped me to plan a week of Independent Study for Tres without him finding out.  

I will be posting the video from the reunion here, as well as pictures and more stories of our Magical weekend!!!!!  But for now....I have two kids that will be going to bed early (especially for a weekend), while I have finishing touches on packing to do.  So, Until tomorrow........Good night everyone!
