We're Beachy!

By -
The weather hasn't really cooperated with us lately. Even as I checked it this morning, we were due for rainstorms, but the last two days, it has been in the forecast and no rain, no thunder. I decided it looked about as sunny as it has in several weeks and that we were heading to the beach.

Autumn hopped right in. Right before we went swimming, we sat down at a picnic table and had lunch. I brought Zaxby's. Poor Millie fell right off the table and bumped her face and chin. Poor girl. Anyway, when we were finished eating, your mom and dad showed up and we all went swimming.

Millie was very brave, more so than any other times because she had that little floatie.

Photobucket
We were building sandcastles.

The girls loved it!

Autumn building the moat.

Relaxing.

Photobucket
I think I wore them out! SCORE!

Photobucket
All three girls.

I was sitting at the shore talking to Devonne on the phone and Millie just took off. You know she went out where the water was over her head. I had to hang up right quick and chase her down!


Millie, come back! OK. Mum.

Photobucket
Never mind. She is taking off again.

After we swam for like 4 hours, we went to the bathroom, showered and changed. Time for shaved ice!!

Photobucket
That was a BIG hit!

Photobucket
The girls picked out their own flavors. Millie had Pina Colada & orange, and Autumn had a hurricane......

Photobucket
Trying to get a picture of all three of them. Autumn has a silly face and Millie isn't looking.

Photobucket
OK, so this isn't happening!!!

Photobucket
Twirly girls.

Crazy dancing.

Photobucket
Princess Millie.

Photobucket
Autumn looks silly here (again with the dancing), but look at her eyes. Aren't they beautiful!

Photobucket
Millie's dancing will make you LAUGH!!!!

Last night the girls camped out in Autumn's room. They watched movies until about 930 pm when I went in and turned the video player off.Photobucket
They are going to campout again tonight.

I wish I could have heard from you today. I miss you and love you so much. Will you ever be home?

Your current wife and favorite airman. xoxo

The Count: 30 days of missing these kinds of special moments.

Snowzilla.

Autumn and I began the day shoveling the driveway. That is much more work than it sounds like. I had to get us both suited up for the ten degree weather, put her in the backpack, then head on out. It took us about an hour to finish the driveway and when we came back in, poor little Autumn's face had frost nip on it. She has now had frost nip twice. Later today, we went to visit Snowzilla. Frosty the Snowzilla man is huge!!! The local government is trying to put a stop to Snowzilla citing a building code violation. Well, I say down with the man!!!! Keep Snowzilla up. He isn't hurting anything. Anyway, here is a photo of Autumn and me with Frosty the Snowzilla man. Here is a related article in the Anchorage Daily News.

Playing with fire.

I hear clank, clank, clank in the kitchen. This cannot be good, grab the camera first though- for proof. You never know what you might find. Uh huh! AUTUMN!! What mom? I wasn't doing anything! So I've moved the knives for now, but it is only temporary. They need to go in a locked cabinet. I took Autumn's step stool upstairs to our bathroom so she could brush her teeth. I think I'm going to head back to Target and buy another one. I'm lazy and do not want to drag one up/down the stairs. Autumn really enjoys brushing her teeth.... with MY toothbrush! Say AHHHHHHH- checking to make sure she did a good job. She is so funny. Autumn and I are going to head downtown after nap time to see about the ice sculptures and check out the Christmas lights. Remember that house in South Anchorage that does the Christmas lights to music over FM radio? This year is the last year, he is moving and his new neighborhood cannot support the traffic. He may set them up somewhere e...

The man in the box.

Not really, it is just Autumn but saying the little girl in the box doesn't sound as cool. Autumn got in the box and was popping out of it. Then she told me, "Mommy, go that way." I think Autumn is on the tail end of this "cold." She already seems to be feeling better. Her nose is drying up, so that is good. I gave both of the girls a bath tonight, then I even got one! Emelia did something today that shocked me..... She rolled over. Of course that happened the day after you leave. Something else that waited for you to leave..... a 4.9 earthquake. It was the first time I've actually felt one since we moved to Alaska. It was, to say the least, scary to me! It did sound like a train/car/plane hit the house. Autumn was in rare form today. She told me that: She was going to take a nap on the stairs. Just kidding!! Such a sweet girl. Tomorrow we go to the Buckner gym for the first time with Emelia. I'm feeling a little nervous about it, but I'm...
