Florida

Shawn had to leave for some training down in Florida...so we decided to crash his trip! Thought even though he was busy with training that the kids and I could get some good beach time in....even though it was cool and windy! We got good sand time in and had fun exploring. We're hoping to make another beach trip in a couple of months when it warms up! Can't wait!

Great Wolf Lodge

This past weekend we decided to drive down to Charlotte and take the kids to Great Wolf Lodge. I strongly recommend this place to anyone with kids! Tregan had a blast and Taylor warmed up to it! It was so fun to see Shawn run around with Tregan like a little kid. It was one of the best spur of the moment trip we've taken. And just to see Tregan's reaction to things was priceless.
Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the weekend.

way too long!

It has been MONTHS since I've blogged...I know, I know...terrible! I'm going to try to get better though. Since I've written last there have been a few things that have been going on. The kids and I had a nice and cozy Thanksgiving with just the three of us. The middle of December we had an amazing homecoming with Shawn. That was one of the best gifts ever given! With him home we had a great Christmas. And for the first time EVER we actually spent a Christmas in our own house with no company. It was amazing to witness our kids run into the livingroom so excited and experience Christmas. I hope for many more of those kinds of memories. Now with January almost done, we're waiting to hear what Shawn's job will be and when the next deployment will happen....we are expecting that to happen the end of summer. So until my next blog, and who knows how long that will be, here are just a few of my favorite pics from the last few months!
