Yummy Cookies!

From Andy's e-mail:

Yep. Got the cookies in one piece. They were a big hit around the site. I wish i had gotten a picture of it but we had a literal ton of girl scout cookies. Two completely stacked pallets of them. I think they're trying to kill us lol. Well i'm going to go get some sleep over here. Ttys

From a phone call to his girlfriend, Alora:

Andy was really excited and ready to come home. Next week is his last full week there. On Sunday they are going "sight-seeing" in Baghdad.

Making preparations

From an e-mail:

Sorry i haven't written back. I've been really busy getting everything in order for my trip home. I'll try and make one more phone call before I leave here. I'll probably mail my trunk on the 1st of May. Can't wait to be back.

Easter Boxes and New Tires

Here’s the latest email from Andy. I told Andy about Jen and I shopping with Jake, Ellie and Emmy yesterday and that I was glad he didn’t run all over like Jake and Ellie did when he was little. He has decided that the “cheaper” tires are probably the way to go since all 4 need to be replaced.

I got your easter box and the worship team's box a couple days ago. All of the treats were greatly appreciated. I wish I could still have my racing tires on my car but I'll survive. I'm glad I never acted that way then if that's how bad it was lol. I'm counting down the days here...may can't come soon enough. Miss you and love you. - Andy
