Eating Air

Myllie and Ethan are so funny sometimes, I don't think they can get any funnier. Let me tell y'all what happened last night. To give you a little back ground- There have been times in the past that when Scott or Myllie has asked me what we are having for dinner I open the kitchen cabinet, look up and down and then very seriously tell them "Ahh...We are going to have Air" they both would always laugh and tell me that I am silly. Okay so last night Scott and I were cuddling and Myllie came over and said " Mom I am hungry as a cow" smiling I said "Really a whole cow??" then we laughed. I then asked Scott what he would like for dinner. He said " I just want Air." Myllie went all serious put her hand up to her head and said " No...Not Air...AGAIN!!!" implying that Scott and I have fed her air in the past. Needless to say we started laughing really hard, Myllie is so funny! Ethan then came over and started being silly too. We opted to go out for dinner last night and went to a really yummy pizza and pasta place here in town. Throughout the course of our meal Ethan spilled chocolate milk all down the front of himself, Myllie had a million questions and very matter-of- factly told Scott she new exactly what cheese tortellini was.( having never eaten it before).....LOL.....She is so silly!! We ordered way too much food, ate way to much and were miserable all evening. I then tossed and turned all night because I was way too full. Eating Air may not have been a bad idea in the long run. Myllie and Ethan are really good kids and I feel really blessed. Scott and I love them so much!!

Ready For A Break

Things have been so crazy for us these last few months, that Scott and I are soooooo ready for a little break. Next Thursday July 3rd we are driving down to Utah for a nice 4 day weekend. We will be participating in all of the fun 4th of July traditions that we have missed out on for the last 5 years. We are really excited. We are most excited about meeting with the people that are going to be building our house and getting that ball rolling. Yeah!!! I can't even begin to express how we feel about moving back to Utah. This has been a long time coming and we couldn't be happier about it. The military has been a fun little adventure, but we are ready for the next adventure to begin. It will be so nice to be around family. Granted we are alot closer now than we were when we were in England but now we will be minutes away from everyone instead of hours. It will be great for Myllie & Ethan to be able to see their grandparents and cousin's on a regular basis. To be able to be apart of all the fun family stuff again is going to be wonderful. We are a bit nervous about life outside the military safety net, but with the Lord's help we know that everything will be fine. We have got so much stuff to do in the next 5 months, but keeping busy will help make the time we have left go by so fast. We can't wait!!!

Sprinkler Fun

I remember playing in the sprinklers when I was a kid, but never once have I played in them fully clothed. While helping Scott water the lawn my kids decided to play in the sprinklers.

They were having a great time. Scott came in the house to get me so Myllie could show me her new trick.

Myllie was able to set a bouncy ball on the sprinkler and it would spin. She thought that was pretty cool. She is so funny!

Ethan was having alot of fun too. He would get so excited when he walked into the water. Ethan trying to help with a bat.....LOL So my kids were dripping went, wearing jeans with big smiles. They had so much fun and were so proud of themselves how could I not smile & laugh about it with them. My kids bring me so much joy and make me laugh several times a day.

Happy Father's Day Scott

I just wanted to take a minute and let Scott know what an incredible husband & father he is. He does so much for us! He works so hard to ensure that we are taken care of. He is so amazing & so cute with our kids. He truly is The World's Best Dad!! Scott & Myllie (2months) Definitely a "Daddy's Girl" Even though Scott was new at being a Dad he was great!!

Teaching Myllie how to Miniature Golf.

Myllie loves her Daddy, she says he is the bestest daddy ever that plays with her all the time.

Scott & Ethan (2 months) Scott loved to come home and give me a break, taking care of little Ethan for awhile.

Playing at the park. Ethan loved the slide so much. Scott kept going down it with him.

Ethan is Scott's "Little Buddy." When Scott comes home Ethan follows him all over the house and helps him outside. Ethan is always with him. They all love to wrestle together. It is alot of fun to watch.

I know that it is Father's Day but, Scott has given me the greatest gifts, he has given me 2 beautiful children, a wonderful life, and his unfailing love & support. We are very blessed to have him in our lives. We love you so much!

~~HAPPY FATHER'S DAY~~
