My Sister!


Yes so I forgot to say in my Long blog below that I get to go visit my wonderful, best sister in the whole world! Yes when I go home I get to go stay with Angie and Jeff too. And I am so excited. So after Thanksgiving day weekend is over we will go home with them until my mom comes and picks us up or Angie calls my mom begging her to come pick us up! LOL which ever comes first. But I am so excited to see her and Jeff and my little Nicholas and Emma! I miss them so much. Angie is the best sister and one of my best friends in the world. I love you Ang!

We're Going home!!


Well we have found out the unfortunate news, Mike is on the out bound roster for October 27th. So that I'm sure means we are going recruiting. So we are very, very, very bummed! So after my day of crying and hating life I tried to get over it and suck it up because we knew it was coming sooner than later! So I guess we will start planning on leaving. Our first decision is what to do with our house. First we need to get our buts in gear and finish all our home improvement projects. Next are we going to sell it or rent it out. We do want to sell it because the market has gone way up and we would make a good amount off it. But how fast can we sell it? But I'm afraid to let someone rent it and ruin all our work of fixing it up. So that is our hard decision!
But on the up side I'm excited to tell all my friends back home we are coming home. Well at least me and the kids are! I checked out Mike's frequent flier miles and he almost had enough for 2 free tickets and so I checked on mine and I had enough to transfer mine to his and only had to pay $111!!!! Yeah so I got to tickets home after taxes for only $131 dollar how exciting is that! So we are going home for a whole month. We are spending a weekend at my aunt and uncle who live in San Diego and then going to Mike's parents house for a week and then my mom is coming to pick me up back in San Diego and I'm going to my mom's house for 3 weeks which we are going to Utah for a week of that, so I will get to see all my grandparents and relatives and friends! And I will also be home for Thanksgiving! I am so happy about that. And the other plus side is since Mike is going to school in San Diego he will go to school during the week and have the weekends off so we will get to see him for a few weekends and hopefully they will let them off for Thanksgiving and he will come up to my parents house to spend the holiday with us. If they don't give him Thanksgiving off he will still come up for the weekend. So that is the plus side but when he does finish school after 7 weeks they will tell Mike where he is going and he and hopefully us will have 30 days to pack our house and move to wherever they send us anywhere in the US!! Which sucks. So we are going to pray that it's somewhere were he will do well and get alot of recuits and be able to come home at a decent hour to still spend time with the kids and I. I'm sure the 3 years of this is going to be long and hard but we will make it and hopefully it will make us stronger as a family!

Say Cheese!!



We bough Jake a new camera the other day since has has show such an interest in our camera. He is always wanting to take pictures when we are taking pictures of everything. So we thought he would like his own. It is one of those fisher price ones. Where it's like a real digital camera. He takes pictures of everything from us to Panda (our dog) to the carpet to the hose out side. Luckily I have shown him the erase button! It's a great little toy though !

Hey good looken whatcha got cooken!




This is Madison's new kitchen set that we bought her. Both the kids love to go in and play with it. And it's so cute to go in and catch them cooking something. And hearing Jake tell Madison "try it you'll like it" which is from Yo Gaba Gaba for all you that watch noggin!

Happy 4th of July!


Here is a few of our 4th of July pictures. We had a nice time we went to our friends house and had a barbecue and then lite off some fireworks. Jake was swimming with his friend Christopher and Madison was determined to get in with them so we finally put Jake's floaties on her and she put her in there. She could touch the bottom and was running all over in there. Even when she fell and went under the water she was just laughing her head off. Jake had fun with Mike lighting off some of the fireworks. Madison was not a big fan of the fireworks they scared her! But we had fun anyways! Hope everyone else had a great night!
