Soldier Lake- Drill Weekend

(Thanks Mia for the girls' swim suits)

The water is cold and full of tiny little tickle fish but the kids love it.

Mali Su and Solomon have no trouble making friends.

I could watch them play in the water all day.

As we drove home I saw a little kid FRG (family readiness group) thing. I took the kids over and they spoiled them with toys and food and ice cream even though they were just cleaning up.

We took the kids back to the room for naps and Daddy went back to work. We had two rooms the previous two nights but for the last day after checkout we kept one room so we had a place to hang out til final formation.

Then we drove home through my favorite view. I want a driveway like this, tree covered, someday.

20 Weeks

Today we had the opportunity to go in for our 20 week ultrasound. We are excited to announce that baby #3 is a healthy BOY! We are excited but have to admit we are a bit nervous. Change is hard and after two girls this is definitely a change. It will be a fun and wonderful experience. I have already thought about little boy ACUs and PT clothes (little army clothes) and what I will decorate the "boy" room in etc. I have always heard boys are "easier" but more rambunctious so I guess we will just have to see. I was excited that during the ultrasound our little boy was crossing his legs at the ankle like both his sisters do! So funny! We will keep y'all posted on names and other developments.

Halloween 2023

We pulled off our best Halloween! Possibly ever! Jake had a vision and it came true beautifully. He even had the cutest song he sang. I loved our last Halloween in our Hurst home.

sometimes life may get you down

but then you remember how wonderful you husband is and it makes it all ok. Jake surprised me by ordering these gorgeous handmade pearl earrings from TINY STORM for me for Christmas and they were waiting for us with all our mail when we arrived back home after vacation. He got down on one knee and presented me with these earrings and it brought tears to my eyes. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful, hardworking, and loving husband who is always there to take care of me and love me when I am having a rough time. Thank you Jacob!
