Scott is HOME!!!

After one VERY long year in Korea, Scott came home! Not to our home in Virginia, but to our NEW home in FLORIDA! While he was gone I moved the house, kids, cats and I into our new home for the big homecoming! Scott got an assignment to Eglin AFB, Florida, so I wanted to get the kids ready and settled in their new home before school starts at their new school. So, August 6th was a BIG homecoming!!

Stella's First Day of Preschool

I found a fabulous preschool program right up the street at La Petite Academy for Stella Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings! She absolutely loved her first day and they are an nationally accredited preschool so she will be learning awesome things each and every day--win for all!

Heaven on Earth

Also known as the beaches in Destin, Florida! Thank you Air Force for sending us to LIVE here!!!

Big Kahunas

Since we love water parks (and it's HOT in Florida!) we got membership passes to the Big Kahunas in Destin. Lots of fun on hot summer days!

Welcome Home!

900 mile drive from home to home....the boys were awesome and it was so wonderful to meet Grammy and Pappa and Stella to welcome us! Thank you so much Bonnie and Mike for all your help!

Road Trip

Moving day--drive to Florida! Two kids (Stella went ahead with Grammy and Papa), two cats---you can see Finny!--and a car FULL of stuff! We made it!

Water Country Goodbyes

First day of summer, last day in Virginia, last trip to the Water Country USA...fun but sad to say goodbye to good friends!

Last Day of School

Last day of school, and LAST day at Dare Elementary. Trying not to be emotional in an empty big house (the movers hauled everything away yesterday---VERY long day), but I thought it would be cute to post some picture of the kids waiting for the bus (I actually took these pictures last week and Stella is already on her way to Florida!). As you can see, Stella has been taking great care of her big brothers and can't wait for school herself!

Move Day

This was one crazy long day...with Scott in Korea, somehow we managed to get all 18,000lbs loaded and shipped to Florida...so glad this day is over!

Stella on the Road

Grammy and Pappa came to the rescue and helped me tremendously by taking Stella with them to Florida while the boys finished school and I finalized the move out in Virginia. Looks like she definitely enjoyed being spoiled on the road trip with them! Grammy and Pappa had her little reading section all figured out and she was a happy girl!

Marvelous Marlins

Had a blast this season watching Carter play for the Marlins--fantastic coach and group of kids! They didn't win a whole lot, but they all improved and had tons of fun, which is what 6 year old soccer is all about!
