Crazy Hair Day!

We went into Pittsburgh the day of the Superbowl and here are a couple of candid shots I took of the boys. The one of Tanner is a little blurry because right as I snapped the picture a guy bumped into me and the manager saw me taking pictures and gave me a weird look

We are moving..... AGAIN!

This will be what our new house looks like at the end of March. Housing has come a long way since we have lived in it back in 2000. Unfortunately we are forced to move out the home we are currently in because the nice couple whom we rented it from will be moving back to Ft. Bliss. We choose to move on post because we are unsure of our destination at the end of this year. So.... at the moment we are in limbo until JJ finds out what his assignment will be. There have been rumors of here and out east but nothing is final until you actually see that piece of paper "Official Orders". The bad thing is the boys have to go to a different school which they are not excited about. Actually believe it or not, one of Jack's main concerns were "Are they studying the same thing I am to get ready for my TAKS test?" I mean, he's only 9!!! His biggest concern was his grade. WOW!!! I have raised him well. The highlight though is that they won't have to wear the dreaded school uniform at their new school and they get the opportunity to be independent and walk home from school (7 blocks).

I will be sending out our new address once we get everything settled.
