I Finally have Internet!

Finally! You get used to having internet and it is so hard to go without it. Ours was finally hooked up today. We got here to our new house July 8th. I love it. I love our neighborhood. I love how green it is. I love our backyard. I love my master bathroom. What I don't love is how hectic everything is. I have so much still to unpack. Our new flooring won't be done until August 5th. I have so much to do and not enough time to do it all. Shirley is sick again. He had a little cold last week that looked like it was going to go away without his asthma acting up,but them Rilla gave him a piece of milk chocolate Saturday night (we did smores) and he had a major allergic reaction ( I took the chocolate out of his mouth as quickly as I could but he still swallowed some of it). The first symptom was his breathing. He started coughing and wheezing and it hasn't gone away. He is back on two nebulizer treatments and prednisolone (and he hates the nebulizer treatments now). He has already woke up once tonight. Hopefully we will get it under control or I will have to get him a doctor's appointment and I haven't picked a doctor yet (we have to be seen off post because they don't have room on post). I know school will be starting again in a few weeks and I am not ready. I am enjoying my time with my kids so much and will miss Walter and Jem. School here is an hour longer than it was in Arizona and I am sad about that. Anyway, I will try and get caught up on all we have done and pictures of my house ( at least parts that are done)soon. Now I need to go to bed. Shirley woke up before 6AM this morning because of his coughing and I have a feeling I will be up at least once or twice tonight. I hope he sleeps in a little later though.
Here is a turtle that Gil found while running in our neighborhood. The kids loved it. When Gil took it back to where he found it Jem cried because he only got to say goodbye to it once.

Dinosaur Museum!

When we found out there was a dinosaur museum here, we knew we had to go. Jem loves dinosaurs. It was a half hour drive to get there, but was well worth it. The kids had a blast. It wasn't very big, but plenty big for children. They had a hands on activity center for the kids, that the kids really enjoyed.I even enjoyed all of it.

Colorado!

Sorry, I am way behind on blogging. The last couple of weeks before we moved out of our house in Ft. Huachuca were so busy. Packing almost everything myself (Gil helped when he could) was a lot of work. When I was sick of it I just had to remind myself of how much money we were making. Our Pods were picked up on the the 24th of June and we cleared housing the 25th. I should have given myself 2 days for the cleaning. There wasn't a lot to do, but what I had to do (like baseboards and walls) was very time consuming. We rented a trailer for our stuff we didn't put in our Pods. After clearing housing we got to spend 2 days with my friends Teah and Melissa (when we weren't at our hotel). That was fun. Gil graduated on Friday the 26th. We left the 27th and drove the whole day to get to my sister's house in Colorado. That is where we are now. It has been fun to relax and have fun. We will leave Monday for Fort Campbell. We will get there earlier in the day on Wednesday and will get to move into our new house. I am very excited.
