Fall Family Fun!













The night Nils came home!

So, as you know Nils has been in Afghanistan for the past 3 months. Well on the 19 of October her finally came home! Jacee and I were so excited! We spent all day getting the house clean, getting balloons, decorating a cake, making welcome home signs, and just waiting around. His plane was scheduled to come home at 11:55 p.m. This was my first time doing this, and I was nervous! We left the house at 11, and drove to the hangar where we would pick him up. There were so many people there with flags, posters, and they were all cheering! After about 20 minutes of being there a guy got up and talked to us and said the plane was landing. They opened the doors and we saw the huge plane! I almost started crying when I saw it, but I held back. After about 10 minutes we finally spotted Nils walking in the rain towards the hangar. Jacee and I ran up to him and gave him the biggest hug! Jacee was a little unsure of him, and didn't want him to hold her. We hung around for a little bit talking to friends then Nils got his luggage and we headed home. Once we got home Jacee let Nils hold her, and they played and laughed! It was adorable! It's been a couple days now since he has been home, and it has been wonderful! I am so proud of him, and he is my hero!

So glad to have him home safe with us! We love you Nils!!!

Playground Pictures



I took Jacee to the playground down the street from out house yesterday. The lighting was perfect, and I got some really good pictures of her! She had a lot of fun playing and going down the slides.

My mom sent Katy, Jacee and I a Halloween package the other day. There were lots of goodies in there! Jacee got a cute pair of jammies, some panties, socks, barrets, gloves, a book and some candy. Katy got a pair of Spongebob boxers, and I got a pair of Charlie Brown pj pants! Thanks Mom!
