We're Famous! :)

I know it's small and kind of hard to see - but we're famous! This pic was taken by some news reporter who was at Jay's Homecoming and was posted on Yahoo! and MSNBC.com - plus there was a clip of us hugging on Larry King Live! Yep, that was it...our 15 minutes is up. :)

Welcome Home Jay - Aug. 25, 2010

Still had his "Welcome Home" sign from his last deployment. Put it right back up in it's old spot...for all the neighborhood to see - we are SO proud!

Had his car all detailed (inside & out), house was clean (or as clean as I can get it with 2 wild childs running around)...we were SO ready to have him home! It has been one LONG year without him.

Beach Bums - August 2010

Jay wasn't due in until around midnight - so the girls & I (and some great friends) thought a good distraction would be to spend the day at the beach...it was a great idea! The weather was beautiful and we all had a blast. Ashton loves to wear glasses, but usually tends to put them on upside down...she is such a trend setter, eh?

BFF's, Alyssa & Paige. I just love this picture. (we have the same one of them from when they were just 3 years old). Growing so fast.

My little resourceful girls found 2 boards and made a teeter-totter out of them. It's so nice when they actually play nice with one another. :)
