Just a little update!

Well Everyone it has been a month or so, so I needed to get you all informed. I have been blessed to be able to talk to Kevin just about every day. He is doing good and is just taking each moment in stride. You all know that Kevin is optomistic, so he gets by with a smile and that is what I hear in his voice. I figured that I would share with everyone some pics of our baby girl Ellie. She is currently at a dog trainer right now, and is being trained to hunt birds. So when Kevin comes home she should be good to go! The gentleman training her is named Gary andhe has been doing this for about 10 years now. He says she is doing very well and just has so much energy. Well I hope you all enjoy the pics and talk to you soon! Love you and be safe!
Here is Ellie running in the field by the Dog Trainer's house.
Here she is staring at the goats in the pasture.
This is her Whoa stance that Gary, the trainer, has taught her.
It is a pigeon that is in front of her.
This is Gary and he has done wonders for Ellie. She is still a bit timid but she si coming around slowly and surely. I know Kevin is so proud of her and I am so glad that we were fortunate enough to be able to get her this training. It is well worth it.

Oh I am so glad to hear that you talk almost daily! I feel very loved that he has called me a couple of times. He sounds tired to me, but you are right he is very optomistic. I will be glad when he's home though. I will continue to pray for both of you daily though an am very saddened that you won't get to see him for some time yet due to your deployment. I can't remember when he said that you would be home. I hope you received my card for the two of you! Love you both tons, Mom
