WOW, WATER!!!

We have had a massive amount of rain the past month or so and Milford Lake is a perfect example of that. WE finally got the boat ready to go out and went to our normal loading spot to find the above picture. The lake is probably a good 10-15 feet the normal level. So the road where we would put the boat in is gone and the ramp is under water.

Hope you didn't want to have a dry picnic!

That is the walkway where we stand to put the boat in.

I don't know if you can see the light post on the left hand side of the picture or not,but that light post is near where we would put the boat in.Just goes to show how much water there truly is.

Jaydn wanted to bring her friends, Cami and Erick, with us! They all had a blast.

Amazingly we didn't even take the fishing poles with us! The kids were very excited to get into the water and swim! Cami even jumped off the boat a couple of times!

Jaydn driving the boat!

Robby let Jaydn paint his toes and fingernails! I thought it was funny that he had red toes in his boat!

Billy was even happy to have the boat out again!

Not sure what that look was for but I thought it was Funny! we are so happy that daddy is home and we can go out on the boat again!

Daddy is HOME!!!!

Here we are, patiently awaiting the arrival of daddy after 10 LONG months! I am not complaining because it could have been a full 12 months and I am so thankful that it wasn't. They were due to start the ceremony at 630 which meant that we had to get there around 5 to get a good seat! That of course meant that we were up around 4 am. Once again, won't complain after Robby had to fly for at least 24 hours and had been up for a very long time. I was just happy to have it done and over with!

We were tired but happy and anxious to see DADDY!

This is when the soldiers started marching in. You should have seen her face. I can not tell you how excited she was. That smile says everything.

LOOK, there's daddy! Thank goodness for cell phones though. Robby was able to text me and let me know where he was going to be so I didn't have to sit there and try to find him among all the other uniforms....even though you know your soldier, it is difficult to find yours!

I wish I would have gotten a picture of her running up to Robby, it was priceless. I will admit that I was a little jealous :)! She was so darn excited to see her daddy!

Finally, a family again!

Thank you to Mom and Sharen for coming to Welcome Robby home!

She was helping Daddy carry his stuff even though it was heavy!

I love this picture!!!!

WELCOME HOME 701ST!!! WE LOVE YOU ALL!!

Random pictures

Here's a few pictures from graduation and summer. I PROMISE to put some up after Robby gets home as well.

I think she's going to be a model. She can't look at the camera without posing.

UPDATE!!!

Hello everyone! I know I've been horrible about updating my blog, life just seems to get in the way. I'm sitting here in my World Regional Geography class and about to fall asleep....boring. Almost done! I have already walked through the graduation ceremony but still had a couple of classes to do before I was completely done.
We are enjoying the summer. The 4 of July is going to be fantastic! ROBBY IS COMING HOME!!!!
It has been a long time coming and we can't wait. Jaydn is beyond excited and won't leave me alone about when is daddy coming home! I don't think she will leave him alone once he is here.
And for all those that don't know, we will be coming back to Idaho from July 24-August 6! We will keep you posted on when Robby is offically home!
