Monday Update



I finally have a husband back at home and it feels great. You really never know how much someone does or what an impact that have on your every day life until they aren't there. Kenny got home on Friday and we had a busy weekend. Friday night me and the kids went to the beach to wait for daddy to be be ready to be picked up at the pier. That was a disaster and we left early and came home to wait for his phone call instead. Just let me say this, people don't watch their children as closely as they should. I understand it takes a village to raise a child, but the village should not have to watch them because your feeding your face. It was 10pm before we finally arrived at home with daddy.




Saturday, we went to the boat so Kenny could sign some papers. He said it was only going to be 15 minutes, an hour an 15 minutes later we were leaving. It was fun to see Kenny do what he does at work. I kind of felt like a fly on the wall and the kids were patient after they found the candy stash in his stateroom. Cort was enjoying jolly rogers (ranchers) as he called them.




Then we were off to a pool party at the Stevenson house. I made deviled eggs, smores rice crispy treats and then the never fail chips and dip. It was well deserved on Kenny's part to sit down a relax after being gone and stressing for the last 6 weeks. The kids swam and we enjoyed every ones company.




Sunday.... We went to church to thank God for our many blessings in our lives. I love our church, it's feel and the people are icing on the cake.




We had the CO's hail and farewell to attend to at PF Changs. I may hate when Kenny isn't home, but the group of wives to hand with are god sent. I enjoy all these women and what each of their personalities brings to the table. We had a great night and are HAPPY to welcome the new CO and his wife.




Today is my kidos last day of no school. So we will finally have a routine starting tomorrow.




Hugs, peace and chicken grease to all,


Ashley

OMG, LOL @ your "it takes a village..." comment! Sounds like a nice but whirlwind weekend. Smores rice krispy treats? DO TELL!

Glad to hear Kenny is settling into his new role. No doubt he's doing wonderful things out there, as are you Miss Do It All! :) (I mean that in a good way!)

Looks like you will have lots of time for yourself now that school is starting. Even more time to try that new paddle board.

Glad to hear that the family is back together. Looks like Hawaii is agreeing with you guys! Thanks for the suggestion on the classics by the way. I ordered mine the other day after trying them on and they are awesome! You were right on when you said to order them early by the way. They were all out of my size. Anyway, hope you guys have a great week.
Love ya,
K
