Hello!!

Well, at the request of a few who are envious of my future travels, I've created a blog. *cough* You know who you are....*cough*

 

If anyone would happen to venture here that didn't know me, let me tell you who I am.

                               

My name is Jessica. I come from a small town in Mississippi and I am sincerely proud to call Mississippi my "home". Thanks to the US Army, I've lived in Germany and Ft. Campbell, KY. Which brings me to my next tid bit of information.

                                     

I've been married to The Goof™ for almost 7 years. He has been in the Army for over 10 years and hopefully, he will decide to make it a career. I enjoy the "Army Life". It has given us the opportunity to travel the world and see new things. For instance, we lived in Germany from 2006 to 2009. We traveled around Germany, Austria and even made our way to Italy! We did bring back a souvenir from our tour there.

Pretty precious cargo, if I do say so myself.  The Munchkin™ is 5 years old and will be turning 6 in November. She starts Kindergarten on me this year. *I have NO idea where the time has gone :( * She is the most caring, outgoing, polite, kind hearted and just freakin' hilarious kid that I've ever known. She is a HUGE talker. Pretty sure she just talk to hear herself talk. My Grandmother actually gave her a pretty fitting name......Mouth™. Beyond fitting at times. Like yesterday when she was playing Mario Kart in her room and we hear "What the h*ll?!" come from her room. Okay, Mom and Dad should REALLY watch what we say and I blame this more on The Goof™ than myself  :D

This handsome man is Buddy. My absolute best friend. I've had quite a few pets in my 26 years but this dude is tied with a dog that my Daddy and I had when I was young. Best 2 dogs EVER. He melts my heart every time I see him. Let me come in the house after being gone for 5 minutes or 7 hours, he meets me at the door. Most times, I have to brace myself because he is a hugger. To be 8 years old, he is so full of life and eager to please.

So, you know about me and my little family. What else should I tell you? Hmmmm.....I guess I should explain the name of this lovely blog. I use the name "OceanGrey" because it's the color of my car, Bertha *yes...I name my cars. Always have, always will.*. Plus, we are moving back to Germany in 11 days! Therefore, Ocean, will be Overseas! Going back to the same little post we were at last time. I'm glad that I know the area but I know I'll get over there and wish sometimes that we would have gotten a bigger post. Oh well! Bring on the schnitzel, beer, Christmas Markets and TONS of pictures! Maybe, we will bring back another awesome souvenir!! Hopefully.

 

I'll share pictures of our travels, funny things The Munchkin™ says or does and just about random stuff so I can, mainly, document this exciting adventure in our lives!
