Family Updates

I liked Julie's idea of Family Updates so here I go.

Chris is still enjoying his work on the F-22's. His squardron is in Guam. They only left 6 people behind to keep up the shop. Chris was one of the lucky ones. Although Guam would be a cool place to visit, the squadron will be gone until the end of May. There isn't a lot to do in Guam besides drink and have 'relations' with the hookers....so Chris would do a lot of beach walking and fishing. I'm glad that he got to stay here. I would miss him a lot.

So because Chris didn't get his orders when he was suppose to, (the military put the wrong date) he is now OPEN. Which means he can work on any plane that carries bombs or has guns, anywhere. The chances that we will go overseas isn't big but now is a possiblity. Now we could even go to Mynot, North Dakota!! LOL (I hope not!) Anyway it will be really exciting to see where Heavenly Father puts us at our next base.

Connor is at such a fun age. He is learning new things almost every day. Two days ago, I went outside to start the truck and check the mail. Connor usually stands at our glass door and watches me. Well I get the mail and am opening it halfway up the walk way is Connor with no shoes or socks, on the ice and snow. He is just smiling away so proud of himself for meeting his mom! I just busted out laughing, making note that I need to remember to close the door all the way now!

I'm cutting out fabric for a log cabin. I doesn't look too hard but I think I'm going to have to do a lot of UNsewing!! I'm also taking my first quilting class this Saturday. I'll post pictures later...probably on my blog.

We are still trying to have another baby, with no luck. It's 18 months of trying. I sometimes wish we had more medical coverage so I could take meds for it. (right now, we'd have to pay for all the treatments and doctors out of pocket.) We talked about waiting until 2 years and then think about adoption. So we'll see. I just wanna another little one around. Just one would make me happy.

My sister Kassy is going through a tough time right now. She doesn't know what she wants to do with her life. She knows that she needs to get out of Marysville (because she's about to loose her job and when she broke up with Billy, in October, she slept with all his friends). So that's coming back to haunt her because now everyone knows what she did. She was living with a boy named Ryan, but he is getting laid off from Boeing next month and is moving back to Georgia. Soooo she is moving in with my dad. Oh can you just hear the drama now?? At least she isn't moving in with mom. She thinks that she is going to get fired from her job at the pool (cuz she causes sooooo much drama) and they are making budget cuts. She decided that because her boyfriend, Shawn, and we live in Alaska that she is going to move her butt up here. I DON"T THINK SO!!! It will be news to her when I tell her that she can't stay with us but I got to think of my family first. Chris would kill her. I would be a mess and Connor would, well he'd probably love her.

My mom is still enjoying being single. She is dating all kinds of fun people. She is actually tame compared to before. She is still dating a few guys but they are more just dinner dates than anything else. She just bought a new truck. The van is about died. She loves her motorcycle. She rides it at least once a week.

My dad is still living with that Chirstine chick. She is nice and really loves Connor. He lives up way past Arlington, almost to Orso. Still working at Boeing. Nothing new there.

Chris' family is good. His grandpa is on his last breath as we speak. But we've all known it was coming for a year so it's time. Chris' sister in law, Megan Waggoner (wilcox) is pregnant again with a boy. Heather Vawdrey (I used to live with her...Chris' cousin who set us up) is pregnant. She married Nathan Griffin.

Aimee is doing good. Shiree just got married this past weekend to a boy from Everett. Aimee is due in May.

I think that's about it. Nicci your turn!

Jewels- when you get a chance....go to your dashboard in blogger. Go to edit profile right beside your picture. About three or four boxes down, there should be a thing you can click about which blogs you show other people. Uncheck this blog. That way there is no way for anyone to know we have a blog together and we can still get updates on our sidebars. That should keep people from coming here unless they click on it from our sidebars. Cool?

Thanks for the family update! I was wondering how Kassy was doing and where you and Chris would be traveling to.
