Looking back on Father's Day

So, I haven't had a chance to sit down and really type anything lately. I've actually been quite tired, cranky, and not very into DOING anything that needs my brain...go figure.

Father's Day was so strange without Todd. Thankfully, we got to talk with him, and the girls got to say hello and wish Daddy a good day. We had sent him a tshirt that the girls made for him, and he wore it to work Sunday and send us pics of it, so that was pretty cool! He seems to be doing well there. He particularly seems to be enjoying the work. It sounds like he is doing some super important and high speed stuff, so from a career standpoint, it must be thrilling! I'm glad. He now has his friend Kris (Mr. K-ris) in the Green Zone as well, so that is nice for him. Ginger and I are both now dealing with learning how this whole deployment thing works. I think we'll both be just fine!

As for the girls, Leah had a special day because she got to sing at church. The VBS kids put on a presentation to the church of the songs that they learned during the week. She LOVED it, and it was super cute.


Kara decided (on a whim like Kara usually does) that she needed to have earrings. She was quite sad because she wanted to be able to wear her earrings to bed, and when I told her the night before that she couldn't wear her clip ones to bed, she was sad. So, that was enough to make her want to do the ear piercing thing, and viola! We now have two girls with beautiful earrings (will post the video eventually)
