Oh I'm so sorry. That's the military for you--expect the unexpected.
Texas isn't so bad though--you might even like it. FH hated Texas at first when he went for training, but he ended up liking it there and is even thinking about relocating us there in the future.
It'll all work out.

2nd UPDATE: FH received an email back from a guy who got Fort Cambell, KY (which was our original 3rd choice!!!!!) who wants to swap with us. We're soooo excited and FH is in such a great mood now. They're going to start the paperwork tomorrow and hopefully it will all be sorted out within the week! Thank you all for your prayers -- it seems like it worked!!!!
FH is in the military and we just found out today where we'll be stationned for the next 4 years. We were really parying for our top 3 choices (NC, Colorado, or Kentucky). We found out this morning that we got Fort Hood, Texas I'm actually not too upset -- I figured thats the Army -- unpredictable. But FH is beside himself. He's soooo disappointed. He doesnt like the base, he doesnt like the unit he'll be assigned to, and he's not happy about how far it is from our families. I tried to show him how to look on the bright side of it, but to be honest, he's just not able to let it go.
All we can hope for is that later this summer someone will 'swap' with us and maybe we'll end up in NC afterall.
UPDATE: FH was able to get all the email addresses of Infantry soldiers commissioning the same date as him. He's emailing them all now to see if any of them want to swap posts. We sat down and determined that we would be happy with ANYTHING on the East coast just to be a little closer to our families. Please pray for us that someone will be willing to swap
You'll LOVE KY!!! You'll be 2.5 hours away from where I live!!! AND you'll be near the border of Kentucky and Tennesse!!!! Lucky gal!
