Emotional Rollercoaster
This past weekend was nuts! My 21st birthday was Saturday which was awesome. On Friday I got my haircut and then I had lunch with my little brother at Amigos and I have to say I love Mexican food. After that my friend Lizz came to visit and we got our toes done. Later that night I had dinner with my parents, Jer, Grandma and Grandpa, and Rick and Aprelle. I was a good day over all. The next day my family went to Epcot to do a little scavenger hunt in the countries of Epcot. It was so much fun and I had lots of food, beer, and wine. We ate dinner in Germany and the food and beer was AMAZING!!! I even got up and made a fool of myself dancing the Polka. After that we spent the rest of the night explore the rest of the countries and watching the fireworks. Afterwards Lizz and I went to Khalid's to get ready to go out that night to the clubs. I had more beer there and Conrad showed up. We ended up getting to Makos a little after midnight and found Kristy and Will. We had a good time and I even danced on stage with Kristy. We closed the placed down and then Lizz drove me home to Aprelle's which leads into the very horrible part of my weekend.
As a lot of you know Rick and Aprelle are very close to me. I do not tell people they are my cousins they are my sister and brother in law. Yesterday I had the opportunity to say good-bye and drive them to the airport to leave for Iraq. I do not think I have ever cried so much. I love them both very very much and I have grown close to both of them over the past 2 years they have been married and lived in Orlando. They flew to South Carolina yesterday to begin their training then when that is done they go to Iraq for a year. Their deployment will not last more than a year and a half but that means they come back within months of me graduating and being shipped out to where ever. They mean the world to me and I will miss them dearly but I'm glad they have each other. Rick is a great guy and I know he will take care of Aprelle. Lord be with them and bring them back safely.
