Hey! I took a few minutes to sneak away from the crowd to write to you. It's kind of hard being there alone. Remember last year? We went to out to Buxton for the long weekend? I keep thinking back to that... it was so perfect... just the two of us in the hotel room... doing nothing but talking to each other. And we had so much fun at the beach with Brooke and Lucas and Alex. Alex was just learning how to walk. And he kept squealing at the seagulls. God, I wish you were here this year. I have no one to sneak off with now.
We're in Hatteras Village this year- in one of those cool colored cottages they have. Everyone's here. Even your Mom and Dad. Wait til you hear this! Karen and Keith are engaged! Can you believe it? I didn't, not when they first told us two days ago. But now, watching them together, I'm so happy for them. I think they're getting married in August, before school starts so we can all be there. I guess they planned it for a day when Lucas would be able to get away from the training camp at school.
Have you heard from Lucas and Brooke lately? They're all set up in the apartment now. It's cute. They ended up with a half-house deal. They got the bottom, which is cool because Alex still doesn't do steps well. He fell down them again last week. Just about gave Brooke a heart attack.
Well, Peyton's here to tell me the food is ready. We're going down to the beach to have a picnic before we watch the fireworks. I hope you're out celebrating some where! Love you Nate!
X's and O's, Haley

Hey girl!
I got your letter from the 4th. You must have overnighted it to me, so I figured I'd do the same for you. Sounds like they kept you busy for the 4th. That's good to hear. Me and a bunch of the guys went to the beach- had a little party of our own... some beer and burgers and hotdogs. We ended up renting a room right on the beach so we weren't driving around.
I was thinking... I'm going to be stationed in Kentucky next. For six months probably. That's what they're saying now anyways. Do you want to come down for a long weekend? Or a week maybe? It would give us some time together... alone... without the pestering of all our friends... that way we could just spend some time together. We need to fill out all the health insurance papers and get all the other paperwork taken care of since we're married now. Think about it. I've got some money put away in an account down here. I could order you a plane ticket.
Well, it's early in the AM and I've gotta get running for the day.
I love you sweetie! Nathan

You guys are married???? I still can't believe that one, although Haley did confirm it... Without telling anyone, the two of you just get married? What the hell were you thinking? Damn.... I guess I'm at a loss for words right now.
I thought Brooke and I were going to be the first... or Jake and Peyton... never in a million years did I imagine that you two would be first... but, I'm happy for you, really. It just kinda sucks that we didn't even get to celebrate with you. Congratulations, though!
We're settled into the apartment now. It's really nice... Brooke did a great job with the decorating. The best part is, the place isn't even white... they let us paint the walls! I know you're not interested in all that decorating stuff... but I thought I'd send you a few pictures of the place...
Well, we're heading out to dinner tonight, so I'm going to get going... Luke
