Memorial Day

Please click the play button above:)

For our Memorial Day we went over to Michelle and Paul's to visit with Tyler and enjoy their pool and some fun. The kids had a blast getting in and out of their pool and we enjoyed the nice 80 degree temp of the water since it was about 88 outside!!

A day on the River

My good friend Michelle and her husband own a couple of jet skies and we were lucky to be able to take them out the day after we got here. It was hit or miss because of the storms but we were able to enjoy them a little. The kids had a blast playing in the water and enjoying Michelle, Paul and her mother, Jeri. It was a great start to the Memorial day weekend.

Fun in the Sun

Our first full day at Fort Benning was spent getting the keys to our new home and enjoying my Georgia Michelle. After meeting for lunch and meeting her husband Paul, they invited us over for dinner and for a swim. The kids enjoyed the attention and Matt and I enjoyed the company:)

Story time and cookies

On our last day and Fort Drum the kids and I started to get a little bored so we ventured to the library to read some books. It just happened to be story time!! Emma enjoyed listening to a interactive story and then the lady brought out cookies and frosting for the kids to decorate. Logan loves this and I am thankful it ate up 90 minutes of our morning!!

Time flies

Almost 4 years ago Emma and I were at a YMCA Mom and TOT swim class when we met little Dani and Jessie. These 2 little girls stayed in our lives and we enjoyed birthday parties and many meals out. I am very thankful for the friendship I started with their Mom, Jen. It is hard to believe the time has flown by so quickly. The picture below was the girls when they were 2 years old at Halloween.

Fun with friends

Our time at Fort Drum was extended by a few days and we were able to spend some extra time with the Horrigans as well as some of Matt's work buddies. On that Saturday evening the guys were so sweet and brought over steaks and sides for us as well as the Horrigans. While the men chatted and Katie and I enjoyed some laughs the children played and played in the dirt before cuddling up for a movie. It was a wonderful end to our Fort Drum family!!
