Sand storms in Iraq
My husband is a Weather Forecaster in the Air Force and is serving in Iraq right now. Weather is a major factor over there. Steve has been super busy with storms the past 2 days. He shared a link with me of what sand storms are...I could never have imagined this! I guess they last for days and it's just dark. Just click http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjBfiw_ntH4 Steve did not tape this, someone else did...it was on youtube but this is at his base in Iraq.
still 6 but almost 7
On Wednesday June 10th Madi will be 7 but we celebrated with a party this past Saturday. Nana drove to Atlanta from Savannah again and Aunt Alicia came with the cousins. Madi was so happy.
To no surprise, Madi wanted a soccer party. I found the cutest soccer plates and napkins and they said Go Girl on them...just perfect! Her cake was a bunch of cupcakes that looked like a soccer ball (thanks to Walmart).
Madi got a Dance Dance Revolution Disney style for the wii. It's a hoot watching everyone do this!
Look at the cute little bracelet that came in the mail today. Madi only had one medical alert bracelet that was not holding up to well. So the other night I spent $100 and ordered a few different ones to try. Some of them are $40 each. But this little stylish rubber one was only $3 so I ordered a few...I have a feeling that white lettering will wear off easy. Madi likes it and I can't believe how small and cute they make this stuff. They need to for these little sweeties.
On the go
We are at the end of our first week of summer. So much for resting...we get up every morning and go to the gym. In the afternoons both kids have swim lessons that they LOVE. We are going to Miss Jennifer's, the same wonderful place we attended lessons last year. Ben has become a pro and Madi is working on it...almost there. Madi is also enjoying a free month of karate lessons she got from school and those are every Tue. and Thur. evenings...who would have thought she would love karate?
