2 Little Princesses...
We had known about this "Character Brunch" for a month before we finally went and the girls had been so excited. The girls were a little nervous about some of the characters, but were good to take pictures with most all of them. Kennedy was terrified of Shreck and Hulk. Anytime they came around she would hide behind my legs. I got her and Regs to take a pic with Iron Man because I told them Daddy liked Iron Man. I sure hope they enjoyed themselves. I know I did. I got a little emotional when I thought about Nate missin' out on the fun day. He had just barely left when we did this.

Awww, The Joy's of Moving...
He then tells me that he will hang everything that is sitting on the floors. Like I said... I still haven't hung everything on the walls yet. They are on the floor where I want to hang them just haven't hung them. Nate is the "hanger upper" in our house.

Meet *Sir* Abraham Lincoln...
As you can see they had waited so long they fell asleep. As soon as he got home we got in the car and headed over to see the puppies. When we got there we found out the momma was still pregnant. The girls were pretty sad so she told them she had one puppy left from the last litter, but he was 5 months old already. I took one look at him and told Nate.... NOWAY!! I wanted a girl puppy and I wanted her to be cute and small etc... (I know... I'm a big ol' baby)!! Anyway the woman tells us I will sell him for 200.00 cause he is gettin' older and I haven't been able to sell him. He looked so scruffy and not so cute in my opinion, but the price sure sounded nice. I told Nate lets leave and so we can talk about it. I didn't want to do anything on impulse. We had to really coax Regs to give him back to the woman. It broke my heart, but we told her we would be back in just a little while. We got in the car and Nate of course was sold on him and Reagan no longer cared if it was a boy or a girl so needless to say we went and bought him some things at the pet store then went back and got him. They had named him Taco. I was not lovin' that name and so we all started to discuss what we would name him. We had all kinds and then it hit me... "Nate, this is your boy. Let's name him Abraham Lincoln. We can call him Abe." Nate and I busted up laughing and everyone agreed this was going to be his name. So... meet Sir Abraham Lincoln...

Our *Ghetto Fabulous* Digs...
The place was newer so that was nice, but the location was not so new. We had the smallest kitchen ever so we had to create a pantry system in the garage. It really didn't bother me except that it stunk horribly like the previous people kept animals out there. All in all I liked the place and thought I would be able to tough it out until Nater got home from Afghanistan, but nope... that didn't happen. Four days after he left 3 out of the 4 units got broken into. Mind you 2 of the families were home. I was awake and heard all kinds of noise, but thought nothing of it because my neighbors were extremely loud all hours of the night. As soon as I found out the next morning what had happened I called the property management and let them know I was leaving. That is just a short version of the story... it was not a pleasant experience let me tell ya. The ARMY was awesome... they had movers come pack me up and move me into a place on post with in 2 weeks. I was so thankful because at the time I was pretty nervous and was a little out of my mind.
We are definitely not in St. George anymore!!

Movin' to Fort Campbell...
Everyone knows Nate joined the ARMY back in August of 2009. He went away for Basic Training and we didn't see him until Christmas Exodus. He then left for Airborne School... it was suppose to be for a couple of weeks, but turned into 2 months. We found out that we were being stationed at Fort Campbell and were OK with that until they dropped the BOMB on us. He was going to be deploying sometime between May 1 and the 15. I was of course devastated and didn't know what I was going to do. Everything in me wanted to stay in St. George, but Nate wanted us to move to Kentucky. After major melt downs etc... I decided to move to KY. With the help of family and friends, we were able to get our house all packed up. My mother in law and father in law helped us move our stuff ALL the way to Fort Campbell. It took us 3 days and was one interesting trip. I am one of the biggest wimps and I drove through tunnels, over bridges and in a pretty bad storm. I handled it all pretty well if I do say so myself. My girls were amazing... they really didn't complain the whole time.
We arrived in KY/TN on February 28. It had been almost 2 months since the girls and I had seen Nate. It was awesome to know that we were going to be a family again even if it was only for a couple of months.

Peacock Anyone?...
So I'm sittin in my car waiting for Regs to come out of Preschool and I notice this huge bird lookin thing sittin on this car in front of us. I decide to get out to see what the heck it was and got a little nervous cause I had no idea what it was. As I was tryin to get close to it... the teacher came out and said, "What are you doing?" I pointed over to the car and she told me it was a peacock and it just mills around all over the neighborhood... my girls thought it was the coolest thing ever so we took some pictures.
