In Florida once again

So a lot has happenend since the last time I wrote. Rob finally got out of the Army and is now working at his dream job. He is the skate and shoe buyer for Quiet Flight Surf Shop. I keep telling him it isn't a real job but I suppose he deserves a little break after the last few years. I have gone back to Quiet Flight as well but I am now working at their Orlando store as a visual merchandiser which is just a fancy way of saying I make the store look pretty. Things are going fine here. I am getting used to civilian life after 27 years of being involved with the Army either through Rob or my dad. Rob has adjusted to it perfectly fine I think. Lauryn is going to start 1st grade in a couple of weeks and is very excited. She got to buy her first backpack for school so now she feels like a big kid. Isaiah is going to pre-k this year so he thinks he is pretty big too. It will be interesting to see how he adjusts to life at school. I think his teachers will get a kick out of him. The next year is going to be a whole new life for out family. I will try to post more often and maybe Rob will too. ,we'll see.

The Adventure

The month long trip is finally over. I have to say I like visiting people but I think that Rob and I are glad to be home (except for the whole Rob having to go back to work thing). The trip really made us think about some things and we have decided once and for all that it is time for Rob to get out of the Army. I know we have gone back and forth a lot but really this time he is (as long as the Army will let him). Neither of us are sure what jobs we will have or how our living arrangements will be but it will all work out. I am going to post some pictures from our trip, I hope you enjoy.

Okay, it's been a while

Well you have probably noticed that the blog has a different title and a different look. I said a while ago that after Rob got back from Iraq I would change things up a bit so I guess after two months of procrastination it is time. The kids and I have moved back to Georgia to be with Rob. We have gotten settled in (for now) and everything is back to being as normal as possible with our family. Lauryn starts a new school in two days. It was moving her in the middle of the school year that gave me pause about coming up here to be with Rob but in the end we decided that being together as a family was more important. Isaiah just seems to be happy to have his daddy back to wrestle and skate (he's learning)with. I thank everyone who came on this Blog to see how Rob was doing and to wish him well, it meant a lot to both of us. Please keep checking back, I don't have any pictures to post yet but I promise I will get some, and faster this time.
