Steve is Home again!!

We love when it is that time for Steve to come home!!




Like always- we went to the beach to watch him pass through on their way to base. This time we had Morgans little friend and Aydins two friends. They have been wanting to come along and see the submarine coming home. They had a great time. As for me... it is always great to see it heading home. We are so blessed to have Steve home through the new year!!

FINALLY.....

For the past few weeks we have been going to our friends house a couple times a week to hang out. They have a ton of land... so the boys all go outside and shot bb guns 'trying' to shoot the squirrels. Well- Tonight was their BIG night!! Morgan pointed out a squirrel in the tree, Aydin aimed and shot. He HIT it!! They were SO excited they could hardly stand it.

Well our friends are big hunters (they have 15 hunting dogs - for deer hunting) and has always told the kids that if they ever kill anything, the are going to eat it. I didnt think they would actually live up to their statement. And they did! They skinned it, gutted it, and grilled it (with a ton of seasoning).


Much to my surprise... Aydin actually tried it. He tool the smallest bite ever- but I have to give him props... My little man tried squirrel.

It does make me wonder if they are going to be shooting squirrels anymore though.


Ok- Do I win the mother of the year award or what?
