I know it's been awhile since I posted but life happens and time flys by and its been weeks before you even know it. The boys are doing great in school and have settled in really nicely to their routines. I am truely loving working at the school. My stress level is nill and I absolutly love the people that I work with. For those of you that are close to me you know that's quite the change from my previous job.

Donte has thrown himself fully into recruiting again. He has a knack for it and is doing well. I hate him being gone in the evenings but it sure beats being deployed. There was a BBq a couple of weekends ago....a battalion BBQ...I am still not sure what to make of it. Like I have said befor its just different. I remember in Germany and NC having BBQ's and it being cold. We would bundle the kids up and be out there for hours. Pleanty of beer, laughs and good times that would surely be remembered and laughed about for years to come. The BBQ here was blaaaah...People were just sitting there and no matter how hard you tried they just sat there.....like lumps on a log....there was no real mingling and no comraderie. No happiness being spread, no laughter weaving its way through. If you know me you know that I am no where near shy and even I was ready to get outta there. I was the only wife there from our station because everyone else was out of town so I was kinda on my own.I guess the best way to explain it is that it's station to station. If you a from a different station you don't mingle......I FIND THAT SOOOOO STRANGE. We are headed for ATC in November and thank goodness I know that we will all be there.....and dang it I am gonna have FUN. I will have a few drinks and hopefully have a fist full of laughs that will create great memories.

Daniels birthday party was great. He didn't want a cake, he wanted a Krispy Kreme cake so 6 dozen donuts later he had one. All the kids had a blast and we were pooped by the end so you can calol it a success.

We had spirit week last week at school and the boys and I got into it. They needed haircuts so I took some liberties for crazy hair day.....it was a hit in school and Daniel begged to keep his mohawk....uhhhhh NO WAY LOL. Friday night was the dance and boy did they have a blast. The DJ was great and over 500 kids showed up. Then Saturday we marched in the homecoming parade. It was a busy week to say the least but well worth it. The PTO here does a lot and is in no way a gossip club. They raise tons of money and do great things for the kids and staff. They sponsored the dance and the admission was a canned good to donate to a shelter....it really doesn't get any better than that.

The doggies are getting bigger and are driving me nuts.......thats what they do best :0)
