Well, when I came to download my pictures this evening, I realized that there weren't many of them, which means I will actually have to use my brain to remember what we did!
Well, after reading some things in a book called God and Children, which I highly recommend, by the way, I kicked my butt out of bed this morning, and actually was up and showered before our easter egg hunt, which hadn't happened yet over Easter. However, even with that accomplishment, we still dashed in to Mass, arriving during the Psalm today.
We went to post after Mass and I used my Power of Attorney for the first time in order to get some forms that we need in order to sign up for housing in Missouri. The other office we needed to visit was, of course, not open, so we just went to the Commissary to get a few staples, stopped by the PX to look for some dress shoes (no luck) and then got back to Church for 10am Bible Study. Therese did great today with the day care group, and it was a great discussion... probably that last one I'll get to, because Joe graduates next Thursday. I will probably be attempting to get the kids to nap in the morning before-hand.
On the way home before lunch, we tried out Goodwill for the shoes, but also left there empty-handed.
When we returned home, Therese called me over from making lunch to get this "family picture" of her and her baby dolls.
The kids took a SUPER long nap, and I actually had to wake them up in order to get to the main office before it closed, in order to pick up my replacement phone, that had arrived earlier in the afternoon. We continued on from the office and enjoyed some pond time.
Bath time was extra long due to the last nights being sort of crazy and late... baths have been missed, and Therese's hair was starting to be a bit of a disaster. They are all nice and squeaky clean now!
In these pictures, David is pointing at and talking about the Duck.
Oh... I got the new phone, as I mentioned, but trying to activate it failed this evening, so I'm still on the old phone until I can find a land line to call from and try to activate it that way. So... if you try to call or if I call you, I HOPE that I can hear you... it is really hit and miss right now.
Daddy Update:
Joe's Company is (from what I understand) hosting an awards ceremony for people who are being inducted into the OCS "Hall of Fame" - or something like that. Joe has been chosen to announce the evening's events, so he is currently having a very late, but hopefully not too stressful, evening!
Tomorrow afternoon/evening is their Company's Social, but Joe has heard through the grapevine that children are not welcome, so we won't be going. Sigh! Hopefully the kids and I are having so much fun at that time that I don't even think about it! (Or better yet, hopefully Joe hears differently AND my phone works when he calls to tell me that we can come!)
