In May, Elizabeth had her second dance recital, and lets just say she didn't disappoint! She amazes me with her outgoingness (not sure if this is a word, but it should be). She loves the attention and the fact that Grammie was here just made it extra special!

It has been so nice having Josh home to celebrate holidays, this September marks his first full year home since 2004, sad huh. We had a great day on Sunday celebrating Daddy. Nothing special just being a family, just the way Josh likes it.

For Elizabeth's fourth birthday we decided to have a joint birthday party with one of her good friends from school Ava. We had the party a little before her birthday so we could catch everyone before they PCSed or went on vacation for the summer. Needless to say the girls had blast! We had it at a gym close to the house were we have been to many parties before but the girls seemed to truly love their party, I guess the presents helped! I still can't believe that Elizabeth is four, were has the time gone it seems like just yesterday.....

So it has been a while...for those of you who don't know I went back to work full time at our beloved Paradise Point Child Care Center. It was a temporary position that wasn't really expected. I was/am the acting director due to PCS orders of the old director, so it has been my job for the past 5 months to get ready to close down over 45 years of history. We shut the doors for the last time on May 29, 2009 and ever since I have been buried in paperwork and getting the center ready for the big yard sale to sell everything that wasn't tied down. Thankfully the hard part is now over and I can get back to my passion, the kiddies!!! I have a few loose ends that I will have to handle over the next few months but for the most part I am a free bird! Here are some pictures of our last day!
