Our Wish List.....

Finally the time has come that the Air Force has sent us our "wish list" to different places we could be moving to. We wanted either west coast or east coast locations and funny enough that they are mostly east coast and none out west. We would liked to have been closer to both our families so we could make drive visits home but it looks like we will be flying again like we did when we lived in Ohio.

So here are the places we could live and will be anticipating to see where we will be end up living:

Illinois, Montana, Texas, Georgia, Maryland, D.C., North Carolina, Virginia, Florida, Guam, Japan

I of course would love to live where we can go to the beaches everyday!!! But we have to be open minded about it since we have no idea where we will be. I do think most of these places would be great places to live for the next 3 years and know that no matter what we will be there together as a little family and we will make some great memories we will talk about our whole lives. We just feel so blessed to be a part of the Air Force and are so grateful that we will have a set income and feel like we are stable. We are so very proud of all the hard work Todd has done to get to this point. He and I can't believe that he graduates in 2 1/2 months. It's a crazy thing to think that the entire time I have known Todd since we were 18 years old that he has been in school and it's finally coming to an end. He has gotten a few gray hairs in between it all from the stress and becoming a dad through it all. He is a wonderful husband and dad to our sweet Tatum and is going to be a daddy again soon to our son which may bring a few more gray hairs but we can't stay young forever right?

I feel like I haven't written many thank yous on our blog lately for the life I have been blessed with. My heart is just so full and I couldn't be any happier.

So here is to the anticipation of waiting and wondering where we will be for the next 3 years. We will let you know once we find out!!!!

Many Aventures

You can usually find us outside at the park with Tatum cause she just can't get enough of it. She would play there for hours if we would let her. It's fun to see her climb, slide, swing, and explore. The weather in Utah this winter like I said before has been unheard of. There have been more days of warmer so to speak weather where we can go outside and enjoy the fresh air and the sun beaming down on our faces. No complaints from us!!!
Here is Tatum hanging out in our Idaho one bedroom studio we are renting from. She has made friends with the local cats because they actually let her pet them, unlike our cat Scout who runs from her ALL the time.
These two play so well together. Tatum loves when Daddy takes her for a horse ride on his back and let's her climb all over him like a jungle gym.
We have attempted a few times to go poo-poo on the big toilet and have had success. But it's not everyday and we realize that it's going to take some time. But she is too cute sitting there like a big girl.
Tatum loves playing in her pretend kitchen making all sorts of yummy treats. She is so good about sharing with her mommy and daddy too. Here she is enjoying a cookie and one scoop of chocolate ice cream. It's so fun to see her playing and using her imagination.
