BEEN A WHILE

It's been awhile since we have updated on our site. Things here in Cameron, N.C. are looking good. Looks like we have decided on Maine as our retirement home. For those of you who aren't aware, Tony retires from the U.S. Army on June,1,2009. Our last official day here and his last day of actual work is March 5,2009. Tony has served this country for the last 23 years of his life and is proud to finally be finished. Onward to new adventures, new jobs, new scenery, no more 4a.m. wake up calls and last but not least, no more PT (physical training). There is a difference between wanting to be in shape and working out, than waking up at o'dark thirty in the morning to run, do push ups, sits ups and listen to grown men and women attempt to sing in unison while doing this. It's quite funny.

End of Summer

ALTHOUGH IT REMAINS HOT AND HUMID, THE POOLS CLOSED THIS PAST SUNDAY. IT WAS THE LAST DAY TO SWIM AND THE KIDS ENJOYED 4 HOURS OF IT. HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF OUR LIFEGUARD FAMILY AT OUR LINDEN OAKS NEIGHBORHOOD POOL. THEY LOVED MY KIDS AND MY KIDS LOVED THEM IN RETURN! THANKS MEGAN,EMILY,STEVEN,TAYLOR,MARISSA,ZAC,AND GUS. YOU GUYS WERE AWESOME FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS WE WILL MISS YOU!

Car wash

Girls had a car wash for the neighbors. Had so much fun taking pics I almost burned the house down!

Julia's Birthday

Attempted to make a soccer ball cake for my "adopted daughter" Julia. She turned a big "12" on the 9th of August. Happy Birthday Julia!

Girls Day Out

Don't mind the toothless grin on the old lady here. Just look at the fun Katie and I are having on our little girl's day out. We went to our favorite spot "Books A Million" and had coffee and hot cocoa. We picked out a few books and read them to each other and just talked girl talk. Katie is confused by my "crush" I have on Joe Jonas. The lead singer of the Jonas brothers for all those who live in the dark. She was upset and asked me if I love Daddy. I said yes why? She said because you like Joe Jonas and that means you don't love Daddy anymore. Well I couldn't explain the whole mid-life-crisis thing people go through... so I explained it too her like this: I think he is a cute teenie bopper and that I love his singing. Not him. So what's up with the crush on Joe? Who knows. Maybe it has something to do with having to watch Camp Rock at least 3 times a week now.
