Recent Events





I have been so busy lately that I have not kept up with the blog like I would hope. One thing I have learned about Army life (or the military in general) is that people are always in and out of your life. Changes in the unit, deployment and PCS (Permenant Change of Station - moving to another base) keeps people on the go. Already a few of the friends that we have met here are moving on, while others are getting ready to soon deploy....will we be next? For now NO, but you never quite know.

The other week FoodNetwork chef Mario Batali was here doing a book signing, so the girls and I went to meet him. Between my neighbor, who was babysitting another family's children that weekend, it was two adults to 11 kids. Are we crazy!??

Breanna is a little ham and gave me the water goggles and helmet for me to put on her....she looked so cute, I had to include this picture.

The other day the weather was so nice that the girls were out in the spinkler. I caught this picture of Breanna.

I pray that all of you who read this are doing well, serving our Lord and expecting Him to do great things in your homes, lives, marriages, etc.

B I G 40 !




This weekend has been a busy one....Angel's promotion and today, his 40th Birthday! Angel received cards from many friends and family members to celebrate this momentous occasion. Since we are far from family, we celebrated with just the girls and I. Enjoy the pics!
