Daddy's Combat Jump!

Yesterday morning the kids and I scarfed down breakfast and ran up to Saint Meire drop zone to catch Daddy and his buddies jump from a plain. The kids love watching Daddy jump! This time was extra special. They call it a combat jump. Daddy takes his ruck sac and dangles it from his hip while trying to land. Very exciting to watch all this go on. We were lucky enough to catch daddy right after for a quick picture!

My Babies First Day at school

When she was trying her knew school clothes on we weren't even sure on where she'd be going to school because Cumberland county's more at four program was overflowing with kids. She'd been on the waiting list since April/May. They also were horrible about actually calling people back. I called them literally everyday for a month straight and they still were unwilling to help. So, as you can tell we weren't to thrilled about having to send her. I decided to home school her because I felt there was no other option and i found an amazing online program . That's when we decided to move on post and everything fell into place. The weekend before school started I put an ad out on Craigslist ( my favorite place) to ask for some advice on schools for her when low and behold... I found out we could enroll her in school before we moved into our new house. i was thrilled! So, the day before school started I got her all set up in pre-k thats given at Mcnair school. ( her future elementary school) So, next year she will attend the same school! So excited for her! Her teacher has also turned out to be amazing! We also found out yesterday that her new BFF Emily ( which she says has the potential to be her "ALLI" ( mommy's BFF forever) lives three doors down from our new place. So, the girls can't wait to ride bikes and play hard all day. I think us mom's are just excited to carpool! :)I think it's amazing how things just fall into place when you have enough faith!
