Halloween 2010


So I decided to start this oh so cute blog off with the cutest picture EVER!! She looked absolutely adorable tonight and had so much fun going from house to house and getting candy!! She actually didn't get to much, we just went to a couple neighborhoods! But it was definately ENOUGH candy! So if you can't tell Addie is a White Pixie! and if you ask me..she makes one beautiful Pixie :)


My Little Love :)
A whole bunch of cuteness right!

We are just getting ready to leave.. We actually waited for like an hour after I got her ready because we walked outside and saw absolutely NO kids walking around yet! But she didn't mind because we walked down to the neighbors house because I believe Addie is trying to make friends with her. Its so cute, we walked down there and the little girl was like..oh my gosh you look so cute, and Addie just smiled at her. It was uber cute! Anyway I am glad she is finding friends..when she rides her bike she is always looking up and down are street for kids to go talk to.
I love my baby girl, she definately has a mind of her own..but one thing I noticed tonight is that she is polite when it comes to other kids! If she would walk up to someones house with a small group of people she would stand beside them and let them go first. It was really cute!

Settling in Mountain Home.. What an Adventure!!!

Okay everyone just to give you a little update!!!



We made it to Idaho about a week and half ago and it has been soo great and soo wierd at the same time... So great in the fact that we are doing amazing and they ended up putting us in a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath 2 car garage house and I get to live in it with my Amazing husband, our wonderful daughter and our 2 crazy annoying pain in the butt dogs!!! I don't have to wait 2 or 3 weeks to go visit him, he just comes home from work at 3:30 4:00 O'Clock and there he is.. I see him leave and get goodbye kisses in the morning and I get to fall asleep next to him and get goodnight kisses... I don't have to wait weeks just to get that! We get to have family dinners and have movie nights together, which have been alot lately because we don't have are dishnetwork hooked up yet, so movies is all we have! But its not to bad, we take turns...well kinda haha...Scottie picks out his movies for like 3 nights in a row and then I pick a movie and Addie gets to pick a movie. so its almost like we take turns..just him more than us.. which is fine because I almost cant stand to sit through a movie when there is stuff to be done here at our new house!!!



Addie is sooo glad to be out of the car, but now everytime we get in the car she thinks its going to be for days again and she is like mom how many more..because I would should her each day on my hands how many more hours we had on the road that day.. so we get in the car to drive over to the commisary..2 minutes away and she is like mom how many more, or we get in the car to drive over to the laundromat, or to her new daycare which both is like 2 minutes away lol.. and she is like mom how many more! I am like there is no more how many more..we are here, we are in our new house, we aren't going to be on the road for a whole day for a while!! So she is getting used to that. considering we were on the road for 3.5 days she did really good!!!!



Ok but here go...part of this amazing adventure that has been started since March when he left for Basic! I can't believe it..we are actually in Idaho, we are actually living in a house, we are actually living on our own and having to depend on each other and its just all sooo wierd! It really is a good feeling to be on our own and doing our own thing, working together as a family...its awesome. We are doing good!!



Okay, so the wierd part..We don't have our families here! It would have been so awesome to have them over here at our new house and helping me unpack.. no housing warming party.lol not that I wanted presents or whatever you do for a house warming party...just to have my family come over after getting everything set up so I could take them through the house and show them everything...Addie is so excited for her memaw and pepaw and her nina and pepaw to come visit! she can't wait for them to come and see her room and her bathroom that has a toilet of her own lol.. it was so cute. anyway, but it would have been nice I was going through pictures as I was unpacking and it would have been nice to have someone there to show them the pictures who actually cared...and I could say do you remember this.. But ya know thats okay, thats part of being a military family, and its something that we will all get used to!! Waiting 3,4,5 months before family gets to see our new house and where we live..Thats okay, it all comes with being part of a military family!!!

Getting ready to leave

Ok, wow so its exactly 8 days until we hit the hwy Mountain Home bound!!! Its crazy! The movers came yesterday and packed everything and then they came back today and picked it all up. Addie was looking at them loading her fourwheeler and her bike and shes like "mom why are they taking me stuff, mom where are they taking that, mom are they going to ride those" lol it was funny. She just doesn't understand, I don't think she is going to understand for a while, she will just have to get used to everything, get back on a routine! She will be good, and I am going to let her decorate her room how she wants it, she will show me where she wants her bed and everything, I think she will have fun doing that!

Im not going to lie though, I walked through our house yesterday after they packed and I started getting teary eyed lol! Then I laughed at myself for getting teary eyed over packed boxes... But it is sad really, we are both going to miss everyone! we are both leaving families we have been around our whole lives, even through our marriage, we have never moved away! Addie is going to miss everyone, and I know everyone is going to miss her soo much!!! Sorry for taking your grandaughter and niece away from you :(

This is going to be so good for us, we are so excited about seeing a new place, I am super excited about seeing the mountains! I am excited about meeting new people! Its just going to be a great experience, we are supposed to be there for 2 years!!

I won't post on my blog again until after we get there and get settled..But I will show ya'll my house and let you know how its going for us so far when we do get there!! I can't wait!

Another step towards this wonderful adventure :)
