Shayne's New Haircut 10/26/07

Shayne wanted a new haircut, so we took him today to get a big boy haircut. He was very excited about it, but Mommy had to fight back the tears.

Kiddos Play at Toys R Us 10/20/07

Our Toys R Us got remolded and the kids went to the grand opening. They got to see Spiderman, Dora, Geoffery, Care Bear and the Cat in the Hat. They had a good time.

Welcome Home 10/10/07

We made sure the whole neighborhood knew without a doubt that Matt was coming home. It was worth it all too to let him know how much we truly missed him. Although we could have lived without all the delays, but that just made it a true"army homecoming".
