The National Guard from Safford was called to Afghanistan for a year and left last Saturday morning at 6am. We picked up some flags and signs from the dollar store and went out to the highway bright and early to show our support and to explain to the kids the sacrifices that so many people make for us everyday. They were tired and cranky at first but they enjoyed it and learned a lot. It was a good teaching moment.
Here is a video of the procession...
We have moved, or are in the process of moving into Tad's parents rental house next to their house. We happened to be in the right place at the right time, their renters moved out so we were able to move in. We're excited to downsize and save some money and have a little less space to clean while I work on my Master's. We moved the beds over before we went so the kids were able to have a sleepover in our living room for a few nights.
Both Paige and Darci crashed one day after a long day of swimming and fun with Daddy. This is how they looked when I got home from work at about 4pm.
Derek after his first Scout day camp. He complained about having to go but when he got home he couldn't wait to show us everything he made and did.
