D.C. TRIP

Last week my dad was in D.C. for business so I took the kids up there to visit their "Papa."

Quick Update

Well most of you already know that James is deployed right now. He's been gone for 4 months now. I found out recently that he'll be back the day before Thanksgiving. Just in time for the holidays! He and I have been emailing each other off and on during his deployment. It hasn't been easy but he's doing well and ready to come home. I've been doing ok too. It was hard at first adjusting to being on my own with the kids but I've gotten used to it. Kids are doing great as you can tell in the pictures. We are just ready for Daddy to come home.

Pumpkin Time :D

My dad and sister were in town visiting for a week. We spent one full day at the beach. We took the kids and had a blast. Here are just a few snapshots of that beautiful day.
