Mark's Home

I know I have fallen off of the earth, but in reality I've been enjoying my family. Mark surprised the kids (well everyone really) and came home from Iraq 2 months early. He arrived home Thursday, February 5th. It was an amazing feeling to drive to the base to pick him up. We've spent the weekend playing the Wii, hanging out, eating dinner with friends and family and just being together. It's been.... honestly words can't describe it. I will try to get back on the computer later and post some photos that we've taken.

My computer did crash the day before Mark got home and I am still retrieving data off of my old hard-drive and so far have lost a lot of email addresses and snail mail address (to include phone numbers)! So if you are reading this, please email me all your information so I can reenter it into my outlook.

Ice Cream

This comic is so true, but if I tried that with Mark at the commissary I am certain he would say... "I behaved, so I am buying it and you can't have any!" Gotta love a man who loves his ice cream!

Falling behind...

Seriously I am falling behind, if it weren't for friends I think I would have fallen in a hole by now desperately trying to dig myself out. The OSU bathroom is 99.9% done, just a few finishing touches left. I will post pictures I promise, my goal is by Sunday night. I can't wait to share with everyone all the excitement going on around here, but it'll have to wait until I unveil my master plan to everyone (give me at least another week, so much left to do!!)
Love and hugs to all... especially you Mark!

Mark's New Email

Here is Mark's new email. I am sure he'd love to hear from all of you!

We're Bored!

I swear the writer of Baby Blues get his script from my house!

What else can I say... only 80 some days till Dad gets home!!!!

Star Wars Lightsaber Duel!

I just had to post this, Seth challenged me last night to Star Wars the Clone Wars Light-saber duels on the Wii. I've never played it, the boys got it for Christmas and have probably played it everyday since. I rose to the challenge and kicked tail. Seriously, I won by a landslide. I was Obi Wan Kenobi, and Seth was Ventress. He won't play with me anymore.... I am the Master Jedi!

P.S. 90 Days til Dad gets home, 90 Days til Dad!
