Well this is my first blog :) And there isn't much going on in our lives. If you didn't already know we are now living in San Diego. We love it here, so we will enjoy it as long as the military will allow us too. Chase is living with us now (and by now I mean pretty much since June when he got out of Kindergarten) He is going to first grade with us and doing very well. He has a spelling test every Friday and he has gotten (3) 100 % and (1) 80% So, so far so good. He didn't do that great in kindergarten at his moms, but he sure is catching up and doing great now. He is getting so big.
Here is his First grade school picture....
The background was actually purple (a mistake on the schools part) Needless to say Chase was NOT happy to be the only boy in the class with a purple background. So thanks to technology we were able to make it blue and Chase is now happy again :) No more tears.
Chase just finished up baseball and is now onto soccer. Here is his baseball pic from about a month ago...Nice smile ;)
Sunday we went Trick or Treating and it was a blast. This was our first year being able to take Chase since he has always been with his mom on Halloween. So it was awesome!!! We went trick or treating in base housing and HOLY KIDS. I can definitely say that military people have lots of spawn. I felt like I was in kiddie city. Seriously there was a line of like 10 kids at every house. And there were like 1000 houses. (of course we didn't go to them all) But Chase had a blast. He said last year he only got to go to one house cause no one was giving out candy in his neighborhood...I know how sad :( But we made up this year. We even got to go into 3 haunted garages and I think I was more scared than him.
Here he is all dressed up :)
I am working here in San Diego at a home builder. I really like it. I write contracts for subcontractors. It pays the bills, so I cant complain :)
Jared is now flying on the Ospreys and he seems to like it. This aircraft is a lot more computer driven and he has a lot of new things to learn. The past 10 years he has been on the CH-46 (phrogs) and those he knows inside and out. Now he is learning the new one so lots of studying and book work. Poor guy, book work is not his thing. He's more a hands on kind of guy, but I think he likes the challenge.
Not really much else going on around here right now, just work for us and school for Chase. I will try to update this blog as often as I can when something exciting happens...might be a while :)
We love and miss all of our family and friends!
