   Oh it was so good to see Matt! We had no communication while he was there! I only sent three letters cause a guy I know said he would call every Sunday so I kept waiting for a phone call that didn't exist! And I got my first letter from him Friday of las week. So I was so happy to get to see him and talk to him and hang out! I actually didn't go to the grad ceremony... I met up with them for about an hour before the ceramony and then Matt said he would rather see our dog because the grad was really informal and "stupid" so I went back to my hotel and grabbed Lucy and went back to base right as the ceremony ended. Then we got about a half hour total before he had to get on the bus to leave. It was hard because it was so little time and I wanted so much more, but you know.. take what you can get! We actually hung out with Kyle a bunch! It was good to talk with him and get to know him a bit! I had no idea that they would be together! Matt called me today around lunch time and I could here Kyle in the background! Did he get a new phone yet? The line at the MCX was SOOOO long! I wonder if they'll get the same class, I know Kyle is reserve and they get pushed through first, so depending on the how backed up they are there Matt may have to wait a while... we'll see!

   I'm so glad everything went well!!! Kyle did finally get a phone, he called like an hour ago. He said that he starts classes on Monday and should be home just in time for Thanksgiving. haha it's so funny that you said Matt called and you could hear Kyle in the background. He said that he is sharing a room with three other guys, but he didn't mention if one was Matt. Thanks for hanging out with Kyle, I'm sure he really appreciated it!

   Hey Brianne! Just wanted to say congratulations! How did he propose? I am so happy for you! I think they are in the same platoon down there now. When Matt called on Tues thats what he said. Good to know they still have eachother! Matt really didn't want to go back. That was a hard goodbye at the airport. I knew once he got down there with all the other Marines he would get back in the mode, but he wanted more time at home.

   Hey! Thanks! He proposed at a lake that we always like to go to. His parents hid in the bushes and video taped and took pictures of the whole thing. It was so sweet and he was in his dress blues. Kyle also said that Matt is his platoon! I was so happy to hear that! This goodbye was actually easier for me because I knew kind of what to expect and it's for a shorter amount of time!

   It goes a lot faster than you think. The first maybe month seems to go by so slow and you think it will never end, but after that it seems to fly by. I wrote my boyfriend everyday and that seemed to help a lot! I kept a journal with me to write whenever I started to miss him. Stay strong for your recruit and if you ever need to talk to anyone or have any questions just let me know I would love to help!
