Now that the weather here is finally sunny and hot the way we like it, the boys and I are having some fun in the sun! We have been spending lots of time playing outside in the water, and I took the boys to the Fort Knox "Water Park" a couple days ago. Ty is now obsessed, and asks to go back to the Water Park every day (it doesn't help that we live near it and drive past it every time we go anywhere)! We have been staying very busy, and time seems to be going by pretty quickly.
Josh is doing good too. We have been blessed to be able to skype quite often, and though he is overworked and tired, he is always in good spirits. It is weird to think we are about halfway through this deployment. It has gone by so quickly, yet so slow at the same time. I don't think anyone but fellow Army wives who have been there, done that will really understand what that means. We are so incredibly anxious to have Josh home safely, and are counting down the days until he will be! Some options are opening up for us as far as his Army career goes...I can't really divulge any details about that right now, just asking for your prayers that God will guide us in making these decisions so we may follow His will. Thanks to all of you that have been sending Josh letters, emails, care packages, and most importantly, prayers. He passes on his great appreciation for all your love and support!
The boys and I have plenty of things to look forward to (mainly weddings!) this summer, and the boys are just two bundles of energy, so there is never a dull moment here! We are gonna keep on enjoying our summer, and playing outside, and before we know it Josh will be home and we will feel like a family again! Here are some pics of the boys' new favorite place, doing their new favorite thing:
Ty laying in the water (I promise, I do feed the kid! His little ribs are all poking out!)
Caellum loving the water
This is a video of Ty "swimming," and Caellum, well, I have no idea what he is doing! :-) I guess he's squatting down in the water to get his Buddha-belly wet???
Hope everyone is having a great summer, and staying cool!
