Play Ball!

We had a GREAT time watching Hunter's first tee-ball game this week!

~

Hunter was at the tee, waiting for the other team to get ready - He must have known I had the camera in my hand, because when I called his name, he turned around and did this...

~

My batting shots were not good - the focus was on the background, I'll try again next week! Here is Hunter on third, waiting for the word from the third base coach, Dad :o)

~
Score!

~
Showin' some pride in the outfield!

~
Hunter lookin' ready!

~

The next inning - playing first base. Again, with an excellent coach by his side :o)

~

You know what the cutest thing about tee-ball is?

... the fact that their little cleets don't even touch the ground :o)
~

A billion more pictures to come, as the season moves along!

T-Ball!

T-Ball season is here!! Hunter is on the Longhorns (shocking, right??) I can't wait to see him in his uniform!

Enjoying the Beautiful Day!

It's 78 and sunny, with a cool breeze today, so before Morgan's nap this afternoon, Hunter and I took her outside to swing on a swing for a little while. Hunter LOVES to push Morgan on the baby swing, because it makes her giggle like crazy :o)

In case you were wondering, that is the back of our house, right in front of Hunter.

CRAWLING!

Well, for now it's just a low-crawl, but either way, she's getting from point A to point B!

~

Bait has been set:

~

Hi Blue eyes :o)

~

Almost there

~

GOT YOU!

~

Wonder who she's calling? I think Grandma and Pappa :o)

The House on Maverick Road

Finally!

~

Here are some pictures of our newest humble abode - second floor pictures to come next week :o) At 1,800 square feet, this is the largest base house we've had - we are loving the space, but still longing for painted rooms and a 'man cave' (I'll let you guess who wants what :o)

~

~

This is your view as you walk in the front door - we offer quite the welcoming party :o)

~

~
Behind the couch is our dining room table, and behind the half wall is the playroom.

~

View of the living room, from the kitchen.

~

Playroom!

~

~

Our view from the back door - 10 steps to the park + earshot from the kitchen window + surrounded by a circle of homes= lots of afternoon freedom for Hunter!

~

Kitchen. If you go down that little hallway, the pantry is that first door on your left. Keep going, and on your right you'll be at the laundry room, on the left is the door to the garage, and straight ahead is the half bath.

Planning desk - (LOVE)

Well, there you have it! This is home for the next few months, at which point well pack it all up and start all over again :o)

The Next Adventure

Lucky for us, we have received orders uncharacteristically early this time around! We will be leaving Texas at the end of May, and moving on to....

Where is Fort Gordon? I'm glad you asked!

~

Fort Gordon is located about 10 miles west of Augusta, Georgia

~

We are SO excited! Not only did we get our first choice of duty stations, we are on the opposite coast (after 7 years, we were way over the west coast!), and only a long day's drive to Chicago!

~

We will be stationed in Georgia for the remainder of Justin's enlistment, (Feb 2014), and after that is yet another guessing game. But for now, we are thrilled, and looking forward to the move!
