Day at the Zoo

We had a great day at the Zoo today. The weather was PERFECT and I packed us a nice picnic lunch. Big Sis rode a horse, which she always loves. Little Sis threw NO fits (which is rare) so it was a perfect day. We went out for pizza for dinner to top it off. Enjoy our pics!!! Comments are always welcome! That means you! *points*

Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter! We went to an Easter Egg hunt on base yesterday. I never go to base and every time I do, I regret it, yesterday was no exception. This morning the Easter bunny visited our house and brought the girls some goodies. I made a HUGE feast of a 20lb ham, mashed potatoes and gravy, baked mac and cheese, cherry pie, deviled eggs, and a yummy veggie tray. We had dinner at the neighbors and the kids did an egg hunt. Afterwards we came home and The Hubs wanted to wash his car. Big Sis wore her bathing suit to help out. It was super cute. I hope you all had a great Easter Sunday! The best part of my day (besides cooking for 3 hours) was having my wonderful husband home!!

The Mama and The Hubs enjoying the great weather!

The Hubs Is Home!!!

The Hubs came in last night around 9 pm. My good friend K came with me to snap some pics and help out with the kids. She ROCKS! I'm so thankful for her friendship. We made a cute little poster and the girls were THRILLED to see their daddy. It's sooooo nice to have him home. Today we headed to the base to do a bunch of uniform stuff then to the mall to take Easter Bunny pics. Enjoy the pics and thanks for everyone's support while he was gone!!!

Anxiously awaiting Daddy!


Big Sis and Little Sis so happy!

THE HUBS IS COMING HOME!!!!! AAAHHHH! I'm so excited! The Hubs will be coming home on Thursday night. The girls' and I made a poster today, it's super cute. It's kind of short notice and I have a crazy busy week but I couldn't be happier. He should be home for a couple of weeks before heading off for training in VA. I can't wait to be back in his arms!! Look forward to homecoming pics! A good friend of mine is coming with for moral support and to take some pics! What a good friend! Here are some pics The Hubs sent...enjoy.

Big Sis' Birthday party!!!

Olivia had a great party!!!! We had some setbacks though. I went to the park this morning to reserve my table and they were all taken. Those bastards went at like 6:00 am to get those tables. GGRRR. Also, we were supposed to get rain at noon. I was so mad! So I went back to my car and cried for like 10 minutes. I finally gave up and went home and decided to have the party at my house. Now to inform my 20+ invited kids....SO I rushed around cleaning my house, getting a last minute bouncy house ( i called about 30 places) And then had to rush back to the park and put up a sign saying the party was moved. After pulling my hair out, everyone arrived and the party was great! Big Sis had so much fun with all (and I mean tons) of her friends. Enjoy the pics. Check out my youtube for videos.

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaack.

Here are a couple of pics from the past few days. Big Sis' friend got a new kitten for her bithday and it's sooooooo cute!!! ALMOST makes me want one. Little Sis fell about 6.5 ft off of a playground thingy right on to her stomach. I run over frantic thinking she has internal bleeding and she gets up and dusts herself off all pissed off about it. Crazy kid. Hope everyone likes the new blog design! Thank MelB. She's awesome with this stuff. I almost threw my laptop out the window because I couldnt turn a color picture to black and white today. GGGRRR!! Thanks MelB!! Love ya :)
