Family of 4

Another Long Update..

So let me start off by saying that Willie is doing well. He has what you call contact dermatitis. Which means, good luck finding out what he is allergic too. The pictures you all saw before were a reaction from changing our laundry detergent. Won’t do that again! He is all better now, and is as crazy as ever.

Jackie will be graduating from kindergarten in two weeks. I can’t believe how fast my baby girl has grown. (She has been going to a private Christian school, long story short, there cutoff date is Oct 30th, jacks b-day is the 29th. She is going to public school next year, so she may be in kindergarten again,,,, which is fine ,, she will just be way ahead of all of them. But we are in talks w/ her new principle,, will keep you posted!) She is excited to get dressed up and sing her songs for everyone. I will take tons of pictures of course.

This Friday Will and I will be celebrating our 10 year anniversary! Yes, I said 10 years. And we were engaged 4 years before that! So it’s been a LONG time. What a journey it has been. I feel we have defiantly grown as a couple and individually. I can remember moving to Havelock North Carolina, in the middle of NO were, with no mall, no real restaurants. It was complete shell shock. I had a hard time adjusting to that life. But now I look back and think man, those were the best days. Life was so easy, laid back and carefree. We would play dominos and drink w/ our friends every Friday night. I would even get Will to go dancing with me on base. Then we moved back to VA for a short time so will could do OCS. That’s where we meet the Thornton’s. God had a plan for us to meet them! Then it was back to North Carolina,, but to J-Ville. Definitely a different life! But the Thornton’s moved there too. During all of this my husband deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, we had Jackie Rose…. then Willie came along. It’s been a great 10 years. I have learned a lot about how strong I can be,,, how amazing my husband is, how sweet children can be. I can’t wait for the next 10 years. For us to grow together and make great memories.

Wills Aunt Paulie got the clean bill of health. She will need to go back for blood test until her blood levels regulate. But they say the cancer is gone! Amen. God truly does work miracles. Her and I are going to the beach in 2 weeks to celebrate the end of chemo. Just the two of us. Looking forward to shopping away!

That’s all I have for now. I am horrible about pictures, but when I am home I am not on the computer. So I will download some pictures SOON!
