MAJOR Catching UP

Well, I've been away from blogland for quite some time, almost a year. I have to admit, I wasn't sure if I wanted to start blogging again, but life is good and I want to share. I stepped out for quite some time. I have to say, I'm pretty sure that this was the most difficult, soul searching, inner peace finding, heart wrenching, crazy year of my life. And I am happy to say I am a better person for it. But without all the icky details, I have a lot of catching up to do. The biggest and best news of all is the birth of our daughter, Penelope. She is beautiful and so sweet. I adore her. She was born last August and the time is flying by so fast. Mister Calvin just turned two. He's absolutely hilarious. He's of course in the terrible two stage and I want to pull out my hair about every 5 seconds. But when he's not busy driving me crazy, he loves to play with leggos, cars and anything (i mean anything) with buttons or cords. He's a couch hurdler, and loves to play outside,especially with the hose (did i mention the cord thing?) both my kids are what I live for. Joe is still at Luke AFB. We are planning on moving back to California to live with my folks next month while Joe goes and serves a year long tour in Korea. And if all goes according to plan, Italy will be our next destination. Okay, so much has happened. And now for the fun. Pictures in my next post to high light the past year.
