May catch up





We ended March with going to an Easter event on base. I thought we were on time, but we should up a couple minutes late. There were some nice kids there who shared their eggs with us. There was an easter bunny, crafts and a lot of food. The kids had fun and so did I. We enjoyed everyones company and the wonderful weather we had that day.
Caspen found himself some dirt to play with while there. Dirt is like a magnet for him.
So ended March and we moved into April. We celebrated Easter with my family in Enumclaw. Unfortunatly Easter Dunday wasnt as nice of weather as the easter event day. We still had a good time. The kids played and dyed eggs and us adults enjoyed our family time together. Here are some pics form when we dyed egg at home and than over at my aunts.


This is the cake I made to take to my aunts. I had the cake pan and than I decorated the cake. It turned out nice. Than I made rice krispy treats shaped as eggs and half of it dipped in chocolate then some sprinkles for color.

Easter morning.

Dying eggs again. I dont know why they wanted to be outside, it was so cold.


April went by pretty fast. It wasnt the easiest month for me. I came to realize and understand a lot about myself and others. I had friends I didnt really knew I had. In the end things turned out for the best. Ending on that note we move into May. No it hasnt eded yet, but we have done some things and Im planning on doing more. The friends I didnt know I had have been there for me to no end. I couldnt thank them enough. I have been enjoying myself and have been able to be myself. There seems to always be something to do. One of those friends just turned 21 so I decided to throw her a surprise birthday. She is pregnant right now so no alcohol, but she loves mexican food so I thought lets have a fiesta. So we did.

Right before this party though, Jack was fixed. It was not the best day of his life. He also had his dew claws removed due to they were hanging on by skin alone and it was not safe.




Okay, it might be hard to see, but if you look at Tiffanys face, the one holding the stick, her face is priceless. Shylo didnt even hit it that hard, but she was so nervous. Everyone loved the pinata.

The kids so much so, this was the only time they sat and were quiet.

The birthday girl who was very surprised we got this party together for her.
This month we also had Mothers Day. I had payed to go to a mothers day brunch on base. Shylo, Tiffany, Tonya and I with all the kids walked to the park than to the brunch. We had a really good time. The food was really good too.



All the kids. As you can see it was a beautiful day.
I want to end this blog with showing what my husband does for me while out on patrol. Every couple weeks I will get flowers and a note from him. I love it. The new flowers come right when the others are ready to go. Before he leaves I make him a book with letters to open on certain days, pictures and what ever else I can put in. I find doing little things like this it helps to keep our moral up.

These were my first for this patrol. I love sunflowers.




These were for mothers day and will be the last flowers I recieve for this patrol. Now im being busy helping to plan my friends baby shower. Were doing a cowboy theme. The invitations have turned out adorable. After the shower I will post all pictures. I really enjoy planning these parties. Now lets enjoy the rest of May and we have some beautiful weather coming our way.

  1. This is my favorite post! So many fun memories. I'm sorry that April was so difficult. I can't wait to show Joe what Stephen does for you. He'll be taking a trip to the NEX flower shop before next patrol for sure!
