I've been gone again I know I'm good at that but this time mostly because of the trip home to see Piskypixie 
and our brand new completely awesome big baby boy. I for one am so happy that everything went well and that they are both ok. My wife is so strong and amazing for going through all of that I wish I could have been there for her but things didn't work out well on this end as far as being there at the right time for the birth. A 9 pound 6.8 ounce baby is not a small feat first kid or not (I'm proud of her like you wouldn't be leave) seeing Asher for the first time was amazing. The time that I got to spend with them was not enough and I want to hurry up and get home to them. While I was there we did a few things and I made sure that Piskypixie rested so one day we would go and do something the next would be for rest it worked out well I think it was great to see the family, and to spend time with them I missed them all. We all got together a few times and cooked out. One weekend we all got together and broke down this nasty little fence that was in our back yard (yay the fence is dead) I of course in true fastion to my name took a heavily enforced steel pipe in full strength swing to my leg. After trashing my bloody sock I washed up and ate some pizza and had a beer. Oh ya fucken beer it was so good to drink a firkin beer. The to leave was as expected a strain on every one and was harder to do than the first time; it took a lot longer to get back to where I am in Iraq than it took to get to my house. I'm still not all the way back into my routine like I was at least there was little to no jet lag and the time changes didn't mess me up to bad.
