My weekend

This weekend was def something that I needed. Ben came home Friday night! I was so happy to see him and to hold him in my arms again. I needed it soo bad. We had a jam packed weekend. Saturday, after I got off work, we went to the mall and walked around for a bit, grabbed something to eat for lunch, went put put golfing, and then went down to the river and acted like photographers, we then went to the capital and finished taking pics. After that we went on a date to Applebees, our favorite restaurant, well atleast mine anyways! To finish off the night we went to Liz's bday party. We had so much fun together this weekend. We laughed like we did all summer long. It really makes me miss the summer when I was living with him. I pray everyday that time goes by really fast and he comes home safe to me from Afganistan so we can move back to TN and start the family that we always talk about.
Sunday we got up and went to his grandparents house for breakfast! It was yummy! lol Then we came back home and fell asleep. When we woke up Ben had to leave to go back. It was really hard watching him go but I knew there was nothing I could do about it. I cried, of course, but not like last night. I thought that last night and today would be hard like it was when I moved up here but I have kinda gotten used to being away from him again, like we had been for 2 years. Don't get me wrong, I miss him terribly but I am trying to stay strong, not only for me but for him too.
I do want to take a minute and thank all my friends for being so supportive and helpful while I have been home. It is not easy being away from Ben and no one knows what I am going thru but my friends sure do know how to make me laugh and still have a good time. Thank you guys so much for being there for me when I need to talk or not. You guys are amazing!
Below are some pics that we took this weekend. Some are edited with Photoshop!
