Day By Day

I knew it had been a while since I blogged, but I didn't realize it had been almost 5 months. We still weren't in to deployment full swing last time I blogged.

However, that has all changed and life has gotten a little bit crazy! I find now I have even less time to get all the things done that need to be done. And just when you think life is about to slow down and you might get even the slightest hint of a break it all comes full speed again. It does make the time go by fast which is always a plus when you are waiting for "your other 1/2" to come back.

Piper started Kindergarten in August. She LOVES it! She has the sweetest teacher and is doing very well. She got all G's on her report card which is good....well to me it's GREAT! We've had a Fall Festival, a field trip to Bennett Farm's Pumpkin Patch, Open House and don't forget her favorite Friday morning event....The Spirit Store! Piper is also wrapping up this season of Upward Soccer. She had an AWESOME season! She scored the her first goal ever which was the first goal, at the first game of the season. Of course I didn't have the camera ready and her daddy was a bit disappointed. We are so proud of her. She is a totally different player then last year. She is also getting ready for her first gymnastics competition in January. She has progressed so well since she first started in gymnastics.

Payton.......where oh where do I begin. She is such a sassy little girl. She has an attitude and a mind of her own. She makes us laugh for sure though. She is a little busy body that doesn't slow down. She recently had a checkup with her cardiologist in B'ham and everything went GREAT! She is growing well and her heart looked GREAT! Praising God for all the work he had done on her precious little heart. She isn't quite ready for activities but she enjoys watching Piper and getting in to trouble wherever we go.

We all miss Superman so much! The girls have had a few rough nights of crying and telling me how much they miss Daddy. It's no secret I have plenty of my own. But we are doing well. And in honor of him we are dressing up for Halloween as Superheros! I will be Wonderwoman, Piper will be Catwoman, and Payton will be Supergirl. I'm so excited to do this.

It is my hope to keep up better with this blog.....we shall see how that goes.

God Bless!
