Dad saves the day!
So as always, my ever helpful Dad came to my rescue. Our household goods arrived last Monday and Rob was in DC at a week long school. Who can imagine me and 2 boys doing that all by myself? Not so easy. After all the hard work was done we went to downtown Norfolk and took a Naval cruise around the ports. It is so amazing to see how massive all the ships and things are. I took some pics-- we also went to Williamsburg. It was really fun - very hot though. We ate a little restaurant that served a desert called 'death by chocolate' it was literally to die for- it is a famous desert. We had fun exploring our area.

Quick Update!
To all of you have been calling and emailing I am sorry I have missed you. I am sitting here on my knees in the middle of our office writing this. Lets just say I have a long ways to go before we are settled! We are here safe and sound-- love the area and the house. The hard thing is trying to fit things in the house that fit in AL-- not very fun. It is like a puzzle that is missing pieces and has extra pieces that don't belong:) Rob is in DC doing a week course so he is lucky enough to miss this unpacking garbage:) My dad is here - thank goodness- and he has been a great help- I don't think I would have been able to do it all alone with my 2 boys.
I will take pics of our house and of Ft. Monroe. It is beautiful here and I think we will love it! Our house is SO OLD but that makes is fun..... More to come, Austin is crying for me.

Goodbye for Now
We just wanted to say goodbye to all of our new friends in AL. We have had such a great year here and have met so many great people. It has felt like a little peice of Utah for us because so many of the pilots are from UT! It has been fun to go into their houses and see all the things that remind me of Utah (like signs and vinyl and crafty things) We will really miss the laid back life we have been able to enjoy here and all the time Rob has had to spend with us. It has been a great year and we wanted to let you all know we will miss you and to keep in touch- maybe we will see eachother again down the road!
Saying Goodbye
This weekend we were able to take a trek to Buford, GA for one last visit with The Pettengils our close family friends. Rob has known them since college. We also considered it a test run for our 800 plus mile drive to VA this weekend. We had a great time with them and Austin did ok-- he loves that binki and loves even more to spit it out! Then on our way home we stopped for Asher's birthday party. I was so happy to get to see Valorie and her family one last time too- she is such a great friend and I am going to miss living only 2 hrs away from her- We love that family!
