Back from Iraq!

I am slowly making the transition over to using facebook more than myspace, so I’ve been cross-posting my blogs on both. If you’re not on facebook yet, you should be. It’s not just for college students anymore. Anyway…

My cousin Evan is back in the U S and A. He’s a marine and he’s been stationed in Iraq since April… now he’s back stateside for awhile, until January we hear. Even though I have never lived in the same state as Evan, and I have only seen him a few times a year for my entire life, of course I’m glad that he’s home safely. He’s a great cousin, a super fun-guy (ha ha), and I can’t wait to see him at Thanksgiving.

His mom and stepdad (my aunt and uncle) flew to from KY to CA to see him the second he landed safely today. They’ve been on a voluntary beer fast the whole time he’s been gone (in support of Evan not being able to drink while in Iraq), and I’m sure the 3 of them will be reacquainting themselves with ye olde ale and lager tonight. I hear he’s really skinny now. Apparently mess hall food in Iraq isn’t the most delicious food in the world.

That’s about it. I’m just happy he’s back safe.
