Santa

Need I actually say anything? I have to admit, this isn't the best Santa I have ever seen but this is too cute not to share. Merry Christmas!

Snow

Yay! It snowed here in Montana. This was Aiden's first snow and Landon had a blasty throwing the balls. He kept saying, "lets play ball mom". It was really cute. Aiden thought he couldn't move with his snowsuit on so he stood in one place for about 10 minutes. Very funny.

Sooo. Uncle David is teaching Landon how to skate. It has to be the cutest thing I have ever seen. Landon actually let go of him and moved around by himself too!!! I was smiling so big. Aiden loved it too. Dave carried him around on the ice for a couple of laps. He was laughing the whole time. I have a feeling if the two boys were out there together (when they are older of course) they could be just like the Hansen Brothers. Aiden had the HUGEST fit when it was time to leave I had to strap him into the stroller to get him out of the arena! Josh is doing well too. He is working hard and getting to know God a lot more. We hope all of you are well too! Much love!

Hey everyone!!! Well fall in MT is prooving to be a fun time. We played in leaves the other day and carved pumpkins and went Trick or treating on Friday. Aiden hated every minute of his costume and Landon loved being a "Fruit" Bat. I guess he got that from Diego. Anyway, we are slowly getting settled and am trying to find a church here. We miss you all!

Here in MT

Hi everyone! I just want to let you know that I love cold weather!!! It has been nice and cool in MT and that is AWESOME!!!! Josh has made it to his place in the Desert and I will try to keep everyone updated as we go. If you are feeling left out please let me know, it isn't on purpose. We went and picked our pumpkins a couple of days ago and costumes too. Hopefully by the time Halloween rolls around I will have my computer up and running. I have been having issues with the right equipment so I can add any pictures yet. Thank you for your prayers and support. I truly feel like we are being surrounded by God's grace and love. I hope all is well for you and I will be talking to you soon! Much love!

The Great Pumpkin patch!

Here we are at the pumpkin patch. There is a church in town that has a ton of different pumpkins and sets them up in the front area of the chuch. They have a bridge and wagons and even an old fashioned out house! I dont believe it's ever been "used" Thank Goodness right? The boys had a blast putting pumpkins in the wagon and pulling them around. We are coming up on our last few days together before Josh deploys and we have been busy packing and cleaning. It isn't really fun for any of us. Grammy comes on Friday to help us move to MT and Josh leaves the 27th. We have some really big things coming up so please continue to pray for all of us! Happy Fall Y'all!

Happy Birthday to Josh!

I was Josh's birthday last week. He turned 31 and had to get Landon his own mini cake to blow out the candles. Aiden didn't really care about blowing out the candles. He just wanted to touch it. Too bad he already had his bath!

AirShow

Well here we are at the Vance AFB airshow. These little airplanes were really fun for the boys to ride in. They had little petals and a rudder. Landon thought that was great. The Thunderbirds were awesome as always and my favorite the F 15's were equally awesome. I love the sound of Freedom! We only have a couple more weeks before I head to Montana and a mountain's worth of packing to do. I hope you all have a blessed week!

Cowboy hats

Cowboy hats. Landon and Aiden love them. They walk around, chasing eachother to put them on. Well we only have one so they fight over who gets to wear it. Daddy got to wear it the other night too. What a treat to be a part of the sharing!

In Jammies but not sleeping

So... my kids aren't sleeping. I have no idea how we are all functioning but we are. They keep waking up in the middle of the night wanting to play and wanting me to sleep with them. For the love of caffeine! Make these kids sleep!

At the playground

Sooo... Aiden figured out the slide finally. Well sort of. He loves going down feet first on his belly. So backwards you could say. He loves it though. Landon thinks 1, 2, 3 Jump is the coolest thing since sliced bread. We only have about 5 weeks until we get to Montana for the winter so we are trying to make the best out of every oppourtunity we can!

baths are so fun!

Daddy's Glasses are so cool! HMM, not so much!

Josh's field glasses

So, Josh is going to completely kill me for putting this on here! We are trying to see the funny side of Iraq and this seems to be it!

Yea!!! I can keep up with everyone at once!

Hi friends!!! I have to admit I copied this idea from a friend. Anyway, with our lives about to be so completely crazy, I thought this would be the best way to keep up with everything and not miss someone on an email. We are so blessed to be healthy and happy. The boys are so big and independant. They had lots of fun visiting good friends while we traveled the states last month. Josh was at something called Squadron Officer School and to avoid the heat and humidity, I took the kids to see Aunt Rachel in St. Louis and Tara and her kids in South Carolina. I am moving to Montana in a few weeks while Josh is in the Desert for 6 months. The boys are excited to move to Grammie and Papa's house. (Well Landon is, I couldn't begin to tell you what Aiden thinks) Please pray for our next couple of months since they may be some of the hardest we have had to deal with yet.
