Field Trip

The boys had their first field trip Friday. They visited a firehouse. As you can see from the pics they stand out a little from their average size classmates...Jake looks like a 1st grader! They are enjoying school and Sammy even ate some new lunch foods they served that I never got him to try like peanut butter and jelly.

My job is working out really well so far and not interferring at all with my mom duties. I am able to fit in my teacher visits while the boys are in school and I do all other work at home.

We visited Brad and Cynthia and my mom last weekend in DC. I wish I had better pics but Jake and Sam don't like the camera flash so they always close their eyes. We went to the zoo and the natural history museum. That was pretty much 30 min of just looking for all the dinosaur bones then leaveing :)

Kerry will well.....drop him an email if you have some time. He is still thinking he will get home sometime in March.

We hope everyone is well and we will talk to you soon!

Miss you Daddy!

The boys took this picture on base today and I know I am their mom but it is pretty cute :)

First Day of School!

Well, today the boys started school. Jake is in the 4 year old class and Sammy is next door with the 3 year olds.

They were both excited, but Jake was a little more nervous. I think he was unsure since it was a new school for him and he was used to St Joe's in Maumee. Sammy did not even watch me walk out the door! He was at his seat with his box of labeled crayons ready to go!

Jake told me he was not so excited but he did fine too and when I left he was playing with a toy.

They started with a special first day of school breakfast of mini chocolate chip pancakes and then we were out the door.

They are going to First Presbyterian in Jacksonville about 10 minutes from the house. It seems like a great place. They each will go 3 days a week and they have about 15 kids in their classes.

I will update with any big schools news :) Talk to all of you soon!

PS I added a video of the boys at the beach too just to see how that works on here. Please leave a comment to let me know if you can view it or not. Thanks!
