I've never been a fan of Valentine's Day. Its a fun time to go out with yur sweetheart, and have an awesome excuse to eat chocolate...but I would be fine curled up on the couch with my Robbie. My sweetie is gone this year, but he sent flowers last night and a super funny card. It was all unexpected, but very welcomed. My Dad also brought home some yummy dark chocolate, and on Friday night my brother went with me to Shogun, here in Branson. Its a japanese hibachi grill. It was delicious!! I highly recommend it!
Anyway I also updated my photo blog so take a look!

Happy Birthday Dad

Happy Birthday Dad, We Love You!!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Beautiful

Six years ago today my life changed forever. I know some people put off having children in order to live life or realize who they truley are beforehand. I firmly believe I wasn't truly "me" until my babies were born. The world changed after I had Savannah. It became this crisp, lovely, scarey, place. She taught me how to see myself differently. I gained an unspoken confidence. She has the most compassionate heart and I'm glad she lets me be a part of her world. She has inspired me in so many ways. I hope she will always remember how much she is loved and honored! Happy Birthday my sweet baby girl. Momma loves you now and forever.

Blessings

I know two weeks ago I graced my little blog with a little sadness. My best friend was leaving for four months. He leaves here and there for a couple weeks at a time, but this was four whole months. When you say it , it really doesn't seem like that long, but its Robbie...he's simply amazing. I knew from when he was in Officer Training School about 4 years ago that the first week woul be the roughest....it was. Well we have about 2 weeks done, a half a month sounds better. I've been blessed to be able to talk on Skype at least once a day. Its so nice to hear his voice and see his handsome face. I feel so blessed, I was once told by someone very important that I would be comforted during my times of trial, its very true. I'm so grateful for Rob's family and my own, they are such a strength in my life. I am grateful we are all healthy and safe, and that Rob is being protected as well. I love hearing my children laugh and see their sweet faces, and being able to stay home with them and watch their progress. I love my life, even if we are all not together I know that I have so much to be thankful for.

First Day of School -Again

Savannah started school in Branson today. I was unbelievably impressed with this school. We met her teacher today, Mrs. Mitchell and she seemed really friendly and welcomed Savannah, and had everything set up for her. The curriculum is amazing, and Savannah will enjoy the different things this school has to offer, like cooking class, poetry hour and foreign language.There are only about 16 kids in her class. Not to mention this school is the nicest school I've ever seen. Savannah was extremely excited when I left her. I'll be eager to hear all about her day after school.

We made it to our temporaryhome today. We will be here in Branson for 4 months. Gosh I miss Robbie like crazy, but I definitely will be busy. It is a lot easier this time around, but its still early. The kiddos are doing great, and love having the Papa and Nana around. My mom is having neck surgery on the 5th, and we pray all goes well. At least I will be here to help in her recovery. I've talked to Rob a couple times today since he hasn't reached his final destination. In the meantime I will have to glance at handsome pictures like this one.
