Hey Every One Its Me

Hey every one its me just wanting to say i'm doing good. also it has been raining here alot! The bad thing about that is that my CHU that it is leaking right above my bed. also it is very muddy around here! I have been very busy doing missions almost everyday! it definetly has been interesting! Everyday i have been seeing kids that have just about nothing except alittle bit of clothes and a roof over there head. The sit around and watch us as we roll by their little village or while we are stopped in there conducting the mission.

well i hope everything is going well for everybody back home.

Be Back Soon.....

Josh Just Called :)

There's nothing sweeter than waking up to a phone call from your husband when he's half a world away. That's exactly what I just did! Josh got to call me, and we actually got to talk for about twenty minutes (usually it's maybe five, and our last call was less than one). They're in Iraq now (I don't know exact location, and even if I did I couldn't post it on here). He's doing really well other than being tired he says. They're doing a lot of missions and keeping really busy, but that'll make the time pass much faster for him. A few days ago he hurt his knee while doing his PT (pushup, situps, running, etc.), and they put him on what's called a 14-day profile. This means he's restricted from doing any of those rigorous activities. He has a personal trainer working with him to strengthen the muscles back up in his knee, and he should be just fine. He says it's doing pretty well right now, and he'll keep me updated. Apparently it's been very rainy over. He laughed like a little kid and told me he's all muddy and dirty. :) It was kinda cute. Overall, he's having a good time and for the most part enjoying himself overseas. He misses his family and can't wait to see everybody again, but that won't be for a long time still. Please keep him in your prayers as you think about him, and as a family we'll pray him home safely. He did give me an address today, but I will not post it on here. I will be calling both Celeste and Wayne later this evening, so contact either one of them or me if you would like the address. I'll send y'all another update whenever I hear from him next, but that won't be for another week or so now.

Waiting for him,
Ariel

P.S. The baby and I are doing well, also.
