Before Church

These are some pictures we took just before church today. Katie got her haircut yesterday and so I thought I would share her shorter look.

First Day of School 2009

David started first grade today at Maxwell AFB Elementary. He really enjoyed his first day and said he can't wait to go back. Nathan and I are impressed with his teacher and think it will be a great year for him.

We're Back... Sorry it took so long

Well, I have been meaning to update this blog for a long time and put more pictures of Korea, but I think now is the time to move on and just start with what is going on now. We arrived in Alabama last Sunday after an awesome trip to Hawaii and fun visiting family and friends in Texas. We got our home last Monday, all our household goods on Tuesday and then have been busy unpacking and stimulating the economy as we get our house back in order. We really like Montgomery. We have met some wonderful folks and have even found a new church home. We joined First Baptist Montgomery and have felt right at home.

We have enjoyed our vacation time together, but now it is back to reality. Nathan inprocessed today and will be starting ACSC. It was a bit different seeing him in uniform again since we have been bums for the last month. David is excited to start school this Friday. Katie would love to be in school as well, but has one more year of "mommy school."

Sarah Anne hasn't made her debut yet, but it is only a matter of time. We have met the midwife who will deliver her, registered at the hospital and have our bags packed. We can't wait to meet her. As soon as she arrives, we will post some pictures and let everyone know.

Thanks to everyone for their prayers as we were traveling and moving in. We miss all our friends we have left behind, but are excited to see what lies ahead.

Take care and keep in touch!

Here are some pics from our Hawaii trip... it was so relaxing and we all had such a wonderful time!

Some from the beach outside our hotel:

Dole Pineapple Plantation maze:

Our Princess Leia (we really think it was more like Shrek, but she said she was Princess Leia):

If you can't tell, we really enjoyed Hawaii!!

These pictures are from the Luau we went to. We had a great time and the kids even enjoyed eating the pork after seeing the "piggy" come up out of the ground.
