ALL THE FUN


Well the past couple weeks have been busy and full of fun.. We had so many people come here and help us celebrate with Chelsea and Tobi and Malakai.. We had a reception /BBQ for Chelsea and Tobi to celebrate their wedding and 1 year anniv. That was on Saturday and then Sunday Malakai was blessed and later that afternoon we had a baby shower for him.. From there we all just hung out and had fun.. Chris was home from the middle East enjoying ( well maybe not enjoying) a month of leave before he headed to the Bahamas' for his next duty station. My sister Kristi and two of her kids along with Brian ( he hitched a ride with her and took a break from work) he is still living in Santa Barbara and going to school.. Matt was only here for a couple days ( he lives here in Utah with us but had to go to California for work) and of course Chelsea and Tobias and Malakai are here from North Carolina where they are stationed on Pope AFB. My Sister Treasea her 8 month old granddaugther Madi and my mom and my other nieces 2 year old also came from Washington. My best friend Shannon from Oak Harbor was here and just left this morning. My other good friend Nancy and her son Jeremy came from Wyo. that was so much fun hanging with her and Shannon. And then there were Ashley and CeCe Chelsea's friends from Oak Harbor.. And yes they all stayed here with us in our home... the only ones left are Chelsea and Tobias and the baby.. they will be here until Wednesday morning when they have to fly out.. it is going to be a very sad day..I am going to try and download some pictures if I am smart enough....

The Day

Today is the day.... Tobi, Chelsea and Malakai fly in... Well they have already landed but the other grandparents picked them up so that they could see them and spend some time with them and meet Malakai, but they should be here later on tonight sometime.. I am so excited to see them even though we just saw them 2 weeks ago! I am sure that Malakai has changed so much just in those 2 weeks.. Chelsea said he did really well on the flights over...

I just became a Grandma for the first time in June.. He is a beautiful little boy name Malakai. I ha ve 4 great kids, who I love having around, but as life gets busy so do they.. We are now living in Ogden Utah after retiring from the Navy. Gary and I are both working full time and enjoying being out of the military.. Our oldest son Chris is in the Coast Guard, and will be heading to the Bahamas' here soon.. Then there is Matt, he moved here to Utah with us and is just working and hanging out.. He talks about moving so we will see what those plans hold.. Brian is in California going to school, and doing all the fun things he loves to do. Chelsea got married a year ago this month and just had Malakai June 6th, she is living in North Carolina, to far if you were to ask me..
