Merry Christmas 2008

This time of year I really start to realize how much I miss my family. I called all three of my sisters, Jayne left me in tears by the end of the conversation, Shel and I caught up on recent life happenings, and Karen didn't answer her phone because she has no signal (Merry Christmas Karen Bernie and Jaks!).I miss you all alot and wish we could spend the Holidays together!! I miss Christmas Eve at Grandma's with the whole family, eating shrimp and tamales! But we are all grown up... but I wish we all kept in better contact. Going a year without talking to my family is stupid... and i hate it. I guess no one else is bothered by it... but you should be. Anyways enough of my crappy holiday speech! Cass and Tater are beyond spoiled with a huge amount of toys and clothes! Greg and I spent Christmas Eve in the ER becasue I got burnt with water which caused 2nd degree burns. We had Christmas Dinner with some friends which was nice. So thats my Holiday Story in short! Hope everyone is healthy and happy!!

Happy Holidays
April

Happy 4th Birthday Cassidy

Cassidy turned 4 on the 9th! I can't believe it... I remember going in to the hospital at 5:30am waiting for the moment for her to come into our lives. And now shes old enough to start pre-k! After our scare last year with her health it makes you realize how real special a mother daughter bond really is. She has become a mommy's girl, she will even watch Army Wive's with me! I love you Cassidy! I will always be here for you. Happy Birthday Princess!

Halloween 2008

Well, It was time to leave Fort Hood and make our long and horrible journey to Fort Belvoir! On the way we stopped at my in-laws house so the girls could spend Halloween with them! So we bought pumpkins for the boys to carve and the the girls were spoiled all week!

Cassidy's Pumpkin!!!

Greg and Ryan carving pumpkins up until 10 min before we went trick or treating!


Tatum not carving pumpkins.. she didn't like the guey stuff! Or she might have been pooping?!


She would rather ride her bike!!!


Tatum didn't want to wear her adorable mouse costume! Her loss...


Cassidy, our princess!! Right....

Tatum made it 5 house then Pappa toke her home and she passed out! Cassidy made it through the neighborhood telling people she liked their curtians and their decorations were nice! I have no idea were this child gets some of these ideas but they r crazy!!! She even tried to go in peoples houses to pet their dogs and cats!!! Halloween is over... Hopefully she doesn't climb on the roof and try to mal Santa and his reindeer!!

Saying Goodbye

The hardest part of being in the military is having friends.

Just when you think that your friendship has blossomed, your put on orders, shipped to a new station, somewhere you have never been, away from family and friends.
So before our last weekend at Fort Hood we got our dearest friends together for one last fish fry.

I miss Fort Hood, My Friends, My Military Family.
Oh and there are kids and Andrea that r missing from photos!! Sorry!!

Catching Up...Hehe

Ok, so I am a little behind on my blogs..but that's my life, always behind on everything! So the next few posts are going to be a little late...sorry.

My Future Whale Trainer

Saturday we took the girls to Sea World and Cassidy my animal lover fed the dolphins and the sea lions. She had a blast. But then it was time to see Shamu.... its not the first time she has seen the show. So we sit in the SPLASH ZONE and she is hopping in her seat waiting for her fav whale to come out. Then she informs us that she is going to be a killer whale trainer when she grows up... and all I can think is wow I guess I better start a college fund. Tater was so pooped she passed out 2 mins into the car ride home. And believe or not we made it out of Sea World without Shamu strapped to the roof of our car and Tatum didn't eat one of the fish we feed to the dolphins! Oh another day in the life of the Curry's!!!
