Sammy is Here!

Brandy (my sis) delivered her baby boy one week ago. He is the cutest thing I have ever seen. Being with Sammy made me want to have another kid...had to hurry home to two three year old boys and my mind was quickly changed!

Christmas at the Base

There is so much to do as Christmas is approaching. Last Saturday we got up early to eat pancakes with Santa. Here we created crafts, decorated cookies and watched Santa arrive on the firetruck.

We then went to Jack's work to visit with Santa again. Noah has requested that he bring "geo trax" while Joshua says that he wants a "car present."

To add a little more drama to the day we decided to go to the local zoo safari and see the Christmas lights. Noah was in heaven as we rode the train through the "beautiful lights."

On Sunday, we went to the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony at the base Chapel. Here the elementary school choir sang carols. The children's choir was followed boy the federal prison inmates choir...only at Maxwell Air Force Base...

Life is Good...

I originally said that I would update the blog weekly...not quite...can't find the time. We had a fantastic thanksgiving. It was a busy day traveling around Alabama to visit all of our family. I am thankful for my wonderful family - couldn't ask for more.

The boys are growing up so fast. We have added phrases like "I don't have to & I don't like that" to our vocabulary. Joshua and Noah keep me smiling.

Life is busy as always. I am working 35+ hours a week and Jack spends all of his time reading and writing papers. We will find out in a month where we will be stationed next. I enjoy being close to home, but tired of living in a small house (previously a barrack) that was converted in the 1950s.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Halloween at the base was a blast. There was so much to do....lots of parties, trick or treating and a pumpkin patch. The boys had a lot of fun giving out candy to all of thier friends that stopped by.

baby huey

Noah and I went to Randolph County for Brandy's baby shower on Saturday. Joshua and Jack stayed behind and spent the day at the zoo. We rarely separate the boys...having one child was so stinkin easy! We will have to do this more often! Brandy is in good spirits and feeling great. Baby Huey will be here within two months. I am excited about becoming an aunt of #7.

Navy Ball

The Navy celebrated its 233rd birthday last weekend. The celebration was held at the Officers Club on base. Jack and I had a baby free weekend thanks to my mom and stepdad. We enjoyed our time together.
