Happy Military Spouse Appreciation Day!
Today is our day of recognition for standing behind our men in uniform, for our unwavering support and love.

So a quick bit about me.
My name is Alana, I've been a Marine Wife for 5 years. We've lived East Coast for I&I duty, Okinawa where my husband did a little comm tech but then was deployed to Afghanistan to train the Afghan army to be an army. Now we are in Montana on Recruiting Duty. Most of our Military life has been outside of the military. When we were on I&I we were at a small air reserve base, where my husband trained the reservists. Okinawa was pretty Military oriented, but we lived off base for most of the time, and I did much of my shopping and eating off base. Now in Montana we are about 2 hours from the closest active duty base, there is a small Army fort, but there are no amenities except a small shopette that is open maybe 4 days a week and drill weekends.
We are hoping to be going back to Okinawa next November (this I talk about a lot, I really miss it there.) And that's about it. For now, Stay tuned though. I've got some cool stuff coming up in a few weeks and you'll want to be here for that.
In no particular order, here are some blogs that I follow that are also doing Military Spouse Appreciation Day link up

ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by for the hop! Is that a Boston Terrier you have? SO CUTE! We have a frenchie/boston mix! Gotta love those squishy faces :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and love that you started a Montana list! ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out! I can totally see how you miss Okinawa. I don't think I ever want to leave here. Obviously I need to go to the states once a year to shop uncontrollably, but otherwise, there is no reason to leave this gorgeous place.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to reading more!

Hi Alana! Thanks for stopping by my blog during the hop—sorry it took me so long to get over here...better late than never, though! I really like the name of your blog. It seems like a real portrayal of life. (That came out sounding way more "deep" than I meant it to!) That's cool that you're (for the most part) enjoying Montana, especially after coming from Japan. We're in Italy now and i'm nervous to find out where we're going from here!
