Hello all..

It's been a busy weekend..I started Homeschooling again Monday...So I have been busy.
I may be moving back to Florida..we have a home there that is not selliing..We bought at a high end...you remember when things were selling for way more than they were worth??????? So we have lost a lot of money..If we move home that would mean leaving my wonderful hubby behind...and being seperated over 2 years...ughhhh...so if you can remeber us in your prayers that would be great...I pray for God'a will to be done... I talk to mom daily she is ready to come back up...it sounds so funny to say come up..I have always said down...for a visit..(you know when are y'all coming down?)I am posting those pics today my hubby showed me how to get to my pics...

The 4th of July

Hi y'all ..i hope you all had a great 4th??? We had a blast. We sat on the Potomac..
at Bolling AFB... The kids thought we sat to far away..ha!! I wasn't going into D.C!!
The crowds were horrible..I always like to know we have a way out of a situation..


I loved seeing the fireworks on the Potomac..lots of history.
My Momma and Daddy loved it also..they leave Tuesday..I am sad.
after 2 weeks .It has been a great visit...That is the hardest part of being Military..leaving your family behind...I miss them all.

I hope everyone had a great holiday...

After visiting Arlington and the unknown soldiers grave...be thankful for the Country you live in. If you happen to see any Military personel tell them
Thank You..I can tell you they really appreciate knowing that!!!

Living and breathing Military daily can be over whelming @ times...

Hello to all.. I have been busy..my Mama and Daddy are coming for a visit!!! I am so happy and the kids too... I have tried som new recipes from other blogs I will try and post the pics..The chocolate cobbler is yummy....Happy reading

Missing the Florida sunshine...

It's raining it's pouring...rain again..I have been wanting to go home to Florida
the sunshine....I cant wait till Saturday..Yard sales...and thrifting...Hope you all have a good day...

Just watching the kids playing outside. They are having so much fun...sidewalk chalk,hopscotch.. just old fashioned fun.. it dont takeas much as we think to make them happy?

I told them when they wake up in the morning clean your rooms and then we will go to the pool...They are so excited to clean their rooms.

I am so used to the heat of the south ...Maryland is not as hot as I'm used to .It seems to me the pool is not warm enough for me. But you know kids they like it anyway,

So I thought I would take a book and actually read!! Wish me luck...

Ann

Happy Friday!!
I really dont like Fridays anymore!!My husbanD has evening parades during the summer months.. They are held at the Marine Barracks In Washington D.C..

And now he also has parades at the Iwo Jima on Tuesday nights...Oh,, I so love the Military thing...(not) I mean the duty thing it is so hard at times.I lived a whole year on my own once with two children...my heart goes out to single parents..Bruce was deployed for a year..Then he went to Iraq..wow it has been hard at times..but we made it!!

Now if I can get used to D.C? this has been a tuff adjustment!!! I really miss my family!! I was home for 3 years with them so this has been a tuff 9 mths..I am not really a city girl .I am finding that out the hard way!!

So this is how I started the bloggs ...You guys are my new friends.. Really it helps reading about others ..enjoying the same things.. so to all of you

"Thank You "

Blessings,
Ann

Hi..and cranberry salad

Hello to all.I hope you all in blogland are all well. I am getting this.Now I have to figure out how to post pictures for Kellys blog.We live in Millitary housing .It is old housing. We are supposed to moving to a new house soon. They are consrtucting new ones all over base. We live on Andrew's AFB. This as far North as I have ever lived.And yes I say North.When you cant get sweet tea in a reasturant it's the North people.And I dont like the cold weather 6-7 mnths out of the year. I was born and Raised in Florida.Some do not consider that the South but I do..especially when all your family raising you is from Alabama and Mississippi .I am a southern girl.. I too like all things from the south.Hey I have a good recipe for ya'll. Cranbery salad..

1-can of whole cranberry
1-can of peach pie filling
1- small can of mandarin oranges drained
mix all ingrediants and chill.
My kids love this. I wanted to incorporate cranbery for Thanksgiving and this come up.. I would like to ask for forgivness in my spelling and grammer..I have never been good at typing.. so I am still learning,,Thanks for all the support...
Blessings

Goodmorning Everyone..

Well I have alot to do today. I am still spring cleaning.
I have to get the kids portfolios together for review. I
am not looking forward to that. I have enjoyed the comments.
I really love Pickets Place and she left me a comment yay!!!
I would love to go sit in her home and have a glass of sweet tea.
I love her home and her decorating style. She makes you feel at home.
I dont think I would want to leave. The bloggers I follow are like celeberties..
I want their autographs..Well I hope you all have a great day!!

Hi guys
I have gotten a few comments yay!!! I love reading blogs,so we will see how writing one goes. Well I got my oldest sons room done .He said thanks mom i have a ton more room in here. I guess he does!! you can now see the floor and the closet has a top and bottom again....wow that was a tough job ,Chad is 18 and graduated this year .HE is still trying to find himself,moving to a new state your senior year and then being homeschooled on top of that. Well lets just say he is an awesome kid!! God has blessed me with my children. I told Chad not to rush he has a long road ahead of him he can live with us and go to school as long as he goes to school full time if not he has to work!! I will not support a grown man.. he has so many things he wants to do so this will be a long journey for him. I want to make sure he is sure of himself and his dreams before he goes into the world on his own...I need help in leaning how to let go? How do you let them spraed their wings? How after many nights of siiting up with them when their sick,first day of school, first words..letting them drive on their own the first time..how do you let them leave the nest? Blessing's to you all...
