Being able to enjoy the mountains again

Our family loves to be outdoors. And being able to drive 15 min. to mountains is something that I took for granted.



The boys decided that they wanted to throw rocks into a little pond.

Happy Birthday to my best friend

I wanted to wish my best friend Audrey a Happy Birthday. Audrey was my best friend in H* and I miss her a lot. We have so many things in common at times it was scary. I really miss are date night swaps. And most of all I really miss being able to just sit and laugh with her. She is a very good friend. Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!

Still waiting

I need to vent a little about how frustrated I am about the work world. We are still waiting for job acceptance and I think I'm going crazy everyday that passes. Well we are still here in U* with my family. But I can't understand why it takes companies so long to come back with an answer. Do they not understand we are in a hurry. Well I feel a little better. But for the positive side of it all I have been able to spend alot of time with family.

My youngest sister is married

My sister Kelsey got married on June 13. We are very happy to have Nate join our family. He fits in perfectly. Congratulations you two.

Time at the park

We love being here with family. I love that our boy's have so many cousins here. And that there's always somebody to go and do something with. I'm hoping that we will be able to stay in U* with all the family here. I've missed being here.

U* Weather

I have missed the weather here in U* It has been raining today and as usual I woke up and expected the humidity to hit at any moment. But instead it has been perfect cool weather and also it cools off at night I love it here and have missed the four seasons.

Spending time with cousins

We did it!!!!!!!!!!!

James graduated from Rice on Saturday. I'm so proud of him and all that he does for our family. James always spent time with the boys no matter how busy he was with school. He is a wonderful husband, and a very good dad. We love him.

Moving Time

We have been packing thing's up this week and it is really starting to sink in that were leaving. We leave on May 12th I have 1 week left here in H* but we are still unsure about where we are moving to. We are going to be in U* for 2 1/2 weeks then we are hoping to know where are next journey will take us. So james will be flying back to load the truck and take it to our next destination. So thing's are crazy right now. Plus I'm going to miss everyone here. Especially my best friend Audrey K. She has been my life-line here in H* and I'm going to miss her. But I'm going to continue to blog and to read everyone's so I can stay in contact.
