Daddy's home!

On May 22, 2008 at about 2:20pm, that's what I was telling Brandon. We had gone to Mike's reserve unit around 10:30am and we were there until daddy came home. Brandon and I walked around and blew bubbles and they had all kinds of stuff set up for the kids to play on so he played in the little air jumpy slide thing. He was scared to play at first but then started to feel better about it and was jumping and running around in it. Of course we had one of the coolest welcome home daddy posters (finger painted of course) so the news spotted us and interviewed us. http://www.wcpo.com/news/local/story.aspx?content_id=6a31aac7-f09f-46cf-ad43-9b88f89c6c57 you can click on the video on the side and watch the little clip. For some reason I am always getting interviewed.


This is the sign I made. I guess I didn't get a pic of Brandon's sign....








Well we also went on a little road trip this weekend. We drove to Fort Campbell. The ride down SUCKED!! Brandon cried nearly the whole way and we got bad news about half way down that Mike's grandpa had an aneurysm and had to have surgery. We decided since there was nothing we could do about it, we were just going to stay and do what we had planned to do. So we got Mike a new dress uniform and I visited with my friend Robin from high school. I hadn't seen her in at least 10 years. Her husband is deployed and she is doing it alone with 4 kids! I have the utmost respect for her cause I could barely handle one!!




Of course no trip to Ft Campbell, Ky could be complete without visiting the site of one of the happiest times of my life. We went down to the river walk in Clarksville, Tn where Mike and I got married nearly 5 years ago.






It's amazing how much a place changes over the years. Even the headquarters building on Fort Campbell was moved to a completely new location and looks cooler than ever!



Well it's been a few days since daddy returned and things are going pretty good. I noticed yesterday that Brandon acts up when both of us are around but when it's just one of us he's fine. I don't understand it at all.
