I'm still trying to get caught up on laundry so I took advantage of the warm weather and let mother nature do her share...
nothing got dry very fast though, it was just a little too humid.
The girls and I decided to make a quick trip to Walmart. Tiffany drove...
and was very careful to keep to the speed limit (most of the time.)
While we were at Walmart Natalie was excited to find Little Mermaid kites!
(The most exciting thing I bought was a new mop head, sorry, no picture of that.)
When we got back we decided to take advantage of the warm weather and go for a little walk...
What are the girls doing you ask? Well, they'll be happy to tell you...
In addition to the ever popular (in our family) shelf-ice, we saw many other exciting things on our little excursion, like our first robin of the season (always a welcome sight!)...
We also heard and finally saw (WAY up in a tree) a cardinal...
The creek is really high because of all the melting snow...
and even though snow is melting fast, our yard seems to be reluctant to give up it's winter coat of snow...
If you can't read it, he had his final gear inspection today. That means he had to have everything together that he is taking with him when he deploys next week. He also has an updated address for people who want to send him things while he is gone:
Cpl Schmidt, Richard J.
1/5 Alpha Company 2nd Plt.
Unit 40325
FPO AP 96427-0325
Later we heard from Nick and he emailed us a picture of what HE's been doing...
Can you find him? (Their camies started out the same color as the pants of the unmuddy men on either end of the picture.)
Photo of the day:
We're so proud of our two warriors!
Scripture passage of the day:
Psalm 127: 4-5
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one's youth.
Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their enemies in the gate.
