Christmas is Almost here

We have the old fashioned tree where you put every little branch up and string the lights. Though it may be dreadful doing it, it gets down. I can happily say that I got on the ball and did it so we could enjoy the tree for the whole month of December. Cant believe as of tomorrow only 25 more days til Christmas and I have yet to start my shopping. YIKES!!!!! Do you have your trip up?

The Dreadful Chore!




MIssion Accomplished!

We have so many things to be thankful this year. We did our usual split for Thanksgiving. Morning with Husbands family and evening with mines. I swear we ate so much that day. Some of the things we are thankful for.

1. Our Family is finally whole since Hubby has made it back from the Sand Box.

2. Our Health

3. Being Employed.

4. Friends we have made and are part of lives.

5. Thankful for the little things in life.

Turkey Day

Yesterday, baby girls school threw a Thanksgiving lunch for all supporting members to attend. It was great and the food was muy excelente!The kids did a thanksgiving skit for all the parents. Lucky me as I was recording my phone decided to die. Blackberry has become my enemy these past few days. Hopefully Santa will be good to me and send a phone fairy my way so I can get a new one. lol.



She doesnt even look three in this picture. Its all going to fast. And only a few more weeks and baby girl will be 4yrs old.

Time Warp

Seriously these past two months has passed us by. With baby girl in school and all the craziness that has fall upon us, I dont even know where to start. I guess I can start where I left off. Bare with me it will be pretty much picture heavy towards the end.

September

HUBBY finally made it home safely.

October
Baby girls first school field trip and my husband was here to take her on it. It was to one of the pumpkin patch and corn mazes. They had a grand ole time.

My husband step sister finally tied the knot and had a beatiful wedding in Las Cruces, NM (Organ Mountains)

Our dear friends from Hollister, CA, The Munoz familia paid us a visit with our yearly Salazar Munoz reunion. The last time we saw them we were only a family a 6 that eagerly grown to a family of 8. We are hoping for a Tahoe reunion but we will see what our wallet will say especially with the holidays flowing around.

Halloween was a blast and me and husband went crafty this year and made both our girls costume. This year theme was Sesame street since my youngest is so INTO Elmo and my oldest wanted to match her. Considering it was a no sew outfit we did pretty good spending only 15 each to make it.

November

We are all back to normal with Daddy being back. Like any other military family who has a loved one deployed, getting back to the jist of things takes time for all of us. With the love and support that we had with great family and friends, we did pretty well for our first deployment. Isa is no longer crying when I drop her off to school and is eagerly wanting me to drop her off early. What a sudden change. Im loving my life and we are finally complete.

Enjoy the pics
