So since so many of you are new let me tell you a little about my self...
My name is Kristen and I am from Birmingham, Alabama. I have lived here my entire life, which happens to be 23 years. I will be 24 on August 20th. I have a twin sister, Karmen who is one minute older than I am.
I married my handsome husband, Zach on September 30, 2006. I met him back in 2002 at a salon where him, his mom, and brother had gone to get the boys' hair cut. Karmen, myself, and my mom were there getting ours cut as well. My mom and Zach's mom worked together. Karmen and I told our mom that he was cute and he told his mom that he thought we were cute. So mom gave our number to Kathy (Zach's mom). She wrote Kristen and Karmen and then our phone number. The next day I got a call from Zach and we start talking and he asked me to go to the movies with him, well I am 10 months older than he is so on our first date I had to drive... Anyways, years later I asked Zach why he called me because both of our names were on there and being a twin I knew he didn't remember which one I was. Get ready for it people, his answer was "your name was first"... Thank goodness Mom wrote my name first for once. And as they say, the rest is history.
I graduated high school in 2003 and went to UAB for 2 years and decided that UAB was not the right school for me so I went to work full time and I have yet to start back to college. And I am completely ok with that. I have a great job with excellent benefits and that is all I need.
Zach enlisted with the Army reserves in September 2008 and started Basic Training at Fort Benning in November 2008. He graduated from Basic in February 2009 and immediately went into AIT at Fort Gordon. He will finish up at Fort Gordon this month and will come home and live as a civilian and go to his unit once a month for drill. There is always a chance that he will get deployed somewhere but we can't live in the "what ifs" we are just taking it one day at a time. His enlistment is up in 2014 and he can then re-enlist or come out of it completely... Not sure what he will do yet, I guess we will see!
We have two fur babies, Max and Emma. They are both Pomeranians, they love Zach more than me but that is just fine by me... I still love them!
Right now in our lives we are just waiting to live under the same roof again which will happen in 13 short days! We can't wait to move back to our house and get our two fur babies back from my mom and dad.
As for children, we have none yet but you will have to keep reading along to find out when... I promise they will be coming one day. We both love children! Zach's dad has requested five grandbabies from all three of his children! I don't know about 5 Mr. Larry, but we have agreed on 3 for now... but that could all change depending on what is going on in our lives.
