Last weekend I had the opportunity to go to Jax! The main reason I went was to attend Shane and Rachel's wedding. It was so great to see everybody at the wedding. I got to catch up with a couple friends who were in the first squadron with Goldie when we lived in Jax. Amanda was a life saver during deployment and we have remained close friends even since we have moved to VA. It was fun to catch up. It is hard for me to believe that Shane is married. I think he was about 15 or 16 whenever I first met him.

Then on Sunday I went to church at Fruit Cove and it was like going home. It was wonderful to see a lot of our friends. After church we went to eat at La Nopalera (which was no surprise to anyone that I wanted to go there). It was so nice of everybody to attend. It was so great to find out what everybody is up to. It only made me long to move back more. We are hoping to get orders back to Jax. Then Amy and I drove around looking for prospective places to move. It was a great visit! Thank you to everybody who took time to hang out with me! Thank you to my hosts for letting me stay with you!

Kenan Turns Three

Ready to eat cake

YUM, cake!

Sunday was Kenan's birthday. For weeks he has been telling me that he wants a Lightning McQueen and Mater party. So we obliged. We didn't really do a party because his closest friends were out of town this month or moved. Plus we had some sickness in the house this week, too. However, Mrs. H and Brooke joined us for cake. Kenan loved the cake and I really had a good time decorating it. Kenan got some Zhu-zhu pets and dinosaurs. He has been playing with his new toys non-stop every since.

I cannot believe that he is three! Where has the time gone? I remember the day Kenan was born like yesterday. I remember vividly bringing him home from the hospital. He keeps me on my toes and challenges me every day. He is hilarious and keeps me laughing with the funny things he comes up with. He has quite an imagination. He is constantly deconstructing things and getting into stuff. He is definitely all boy. Thank you, Lord, for blessing us with Kenan. He is a joy to us!

Kenan's Pre-School Easter Party

Hunting Eggs

Story Time

The class!

Kenan had his school party the Thursday before Easter. They had good treats to eat and got to decorate their own Easter baskets. Then they did an Easter egg hunt. The mom in charge originally told each child that he/she could ONLY pick up certain colored eggs (yeah right!). Then she changed it and said they could pick up whatever color but only a certain number of eggs. Kenan obviously got it in his head that he could only pick up a certain color egg. So off Kenan goes to find eggs. He would ONLY pick up the pink eggs. He would walk right pass eggs of any other color. He absolutely refused to pick up any other color. That started a whole downward spiral of his attitude. He moped and wouldn't participate in the other games they were doing. I'm not sure what the real issue was but I knew it was time for us to go. Oh how I love the terrible two's.
