So more briefings, about phones and so on. We got a house offer one in Ely (45 minutes away) and one in Lord's Walk (which is literally right outside Gate 2) So we went and looked at the Lord's walk, Andrew didn’t want to drive 45 minutes to and from work every day, especially in the dark winter, they have Car Eating Ditches, they are deep and full of water. So we didn’t even go that far. We decided to go with the Lords Walk it is 11 Lancewood. I am so happy. It is a 2 story house, 2 bedrooms. 1 Bathroom, a cute little house with Pink Carpet. The main problem is no fence in the back yard, we are going to ask how we can maybe get that Okayed to put it, but I am not sure. I am super excited about it though.
We met Andrews Supervisor Tech. Sergeant Hartford and his wife, Kaye. She is soooo sweet; she has all of these plans. They will live in Lord's walk too, just in the nicer houses. lol. But she wants to have a BBQ and so on.
We are took our driving test today, so wish me luck, we both passed you had to get an 80 and that is just what I got, Andrew got an 88, he is so smart!
We went to church last night, Melody drove over and we followed them there, it is so small less than 30 people, very nice people, some old, but I didn’t meet any couples our age, just Kelsey and her boyfriend. I have met so many nice people!!
I signed up for a class called Heart Links it is a class for the spouses of Armed Forces and it is a brake down of ranks, rules, deployments and so on, the things that Andrew learned and just didn’t bring home. lol. That is June 11; I am pretty excited about that. I am taking it with Camille and Kaye. So that will be neat.
So that is what happened yesterday (Wednesday) it is 11:40am here. The days go by very quickly here, which is good, but also not good. Andrew is getting really good on driving on the Left hand side. I hope I don’t have too, but if I do, I at least passed by driving test. When I took my test up for him to grade it, he just sat there; I said “How are you?” He was like “good, you?” I was like “NERVOUS” He laughed and said, “No need you got an 80” I was so relieved!!! I was shaking. Andrew wasn’t nervous he knew the information, even though I read over the book more. Oh well. Lol.
Tomorrow is our trip to Bury St. Edmunds; we are very excited about that, we will hopefully get Cell Phones or Mobile phones here. Pretty excited. Lol. We will go this afternoon and tell the housing office we want the house and ask all of the questions we have. Then we will call and see if our stuff is here or if it is close. I am so excited about having a house and getting ready to move it. I am loving it more and more here each day. I am meeting such wonderful people who are having the same problems or questions as me. I met another new wife today, I lost her name. lol. I am so bad, but I like having that security. She is looking at a house behind where we live, so that will be really neat to have someone young close to us. I am excited to get done with in-processing and start traveling and setting up our new house.
When we looked at the house it was so small, but the more we walked around it grew on me. I think it will be a perfect house for Andrew Michael and I. Super excited and looking forward to you all coming to visit me!!! Well I better run, I am not sure when Andrew is done with his briefing and I know he will want to run to the housing office as soon as he is done. Love you and miss you all!
Rebekah and Andrew
