HE'S HOME!!!!!! HE'S HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a great day!!!!!!! :) Some of these are dark...but they are so precious, I had to share them anyway.

THERE HE IS!!!!! OUR HERO!!!!!!!!! OUR SAILOR!!!!!!!!!! MY MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

IT'S TIME!!! IT'S TIME!!!!!! FINALLY!!! We are waiting for Clint to arrive from Iraq!! Chan and the kids are with us. In this first pic, I am talking to Randy...he called just as Clint came down the corridor.

Chan and the kids were in Williamsburg for a week of vacation and she was wonderful enough to come help me decorate and get the house ready for our Sailor's return!!! :)

Every year, when I unpack the Christmas decorations, I have the toys from the year before for the pugs. When Charlie Bell was here, he and Lady Bug would fight over this star and play and wrestle..it was quite entertaining. This year, as I unpacked their Christmas star, she went up to it, sniffed it (Charlie's smell was still there from last year), picked it up ever so gently and looked up at me as if to say, "Is it ok for me to take it Moma?" Once I gave her the ok, she tore off to her bed and played with it so hard she made her gums bleed. She misses you Charlie Bell, but you are so very present every single day. She will look over the Christmas star for both of you now. Merry Merry Christmas sweet boy.

Dareck wiped out on his skateboard and now has an awesome scar. Dad says, "Chics love scars."

Our sweet Mamaw's 90th birthday. Love you pretty lady! :)

Along our walking path........

I finally got to join Cindy and Chandra for Girl's Weekend!! We went to Virginia Beach, Va. We had so much fun! Thanks for letting me join in YA YA sisters! I cannot wait for the next one!

Our Girls' Weekend started out with a hurricane......brrrrrrrrrr.........

But it ended in a gorgeous day! :)

We had some friends come visit us. There were so many of them. They were beautiful and a perfect end to a perfect weekend! :)

We decided to eat outside to bypass the LONG line at the Mexican Restaurant...our waitress, who was AWESOME, was kind enough to give us a free shot to warm us...it was probably in the 20's or 30's...WE LOVE THE MEXICAN!!!!!! :)

Look!!! No chins!! :)
