Our Last Trip


Coy got braces in July of 2007.  We lived in Biloxi at the time.  We have moved three times since then, but have stayed with his orthodontist in Biloxi.  We traveled down about once every other month or so and then adjusted.  He had his braces taken off over Spring Break.  It was our last official trip to Biloxi!  A friend of mine and Joe's husband is in the Air Force.  One of the perks of being an USAF family is getting to stay on any base for nearly nothing.  She and two of her girls, Caden, Coy and I made the trip.  It was awesome.  Having lived by Keesler AFB for nearly two years and never being able to see what was behind those big black fences was the coolest!  We had a great four days and Coy's teeth look fabulous!

A Little Kitty Cat

Joe came home Thursday night from band practice and woke me up.  He had found this under our house!  We suspect that the momma cat was moving her litter, moved this one first, Joe found it and she took her litter elsewhere when she realized maybe it wasn't a safe place!:(  So, at midnight, I was at Walmart buying replacement formula, a kitten bottle and set out for three days and long nights of feeding it, cleaning it and helping it use the bathroom while frantically looking for a new momma cat.  On Saturday night, we found one!  She took it in! YAY  We plan on taking it back after it is weened.  We need a name for "it."

Go Cubs!

We signed Caden up for baseball in February.  Joe signed up to coach and was granted that opportunity.  We have been blessed with the best team!  Our kids and parents ROCK!  They are a young team with lots of resolve!  We won our first game on Saturday!  They have all improved their game and learned a ton and oh, the fun we are having!
