Well we have told the family. After Billy gets out of school in December he is enlisting in the Navy. After being really sad and pout about this I've really thought about it. This could be it for us. That something to get us going. I've talked to alot of people about this. Unlike the army who go out for max like 12 month his max would be 6 months. Yeah I will be sad and miss him tons but it's work. He'll be doing what he loves to do and doing it on a boat. How cool is that. Here comes the best part. With him working on the seas I would be able to get a part time job. They have free day care on base, free on base living free flight benefits ANY WHERE, and I can have another baby! Insurance is close to nothing! I've been waiting to have my second until I can quite my day job and stay home with the two of them. Haven't been able to do that yet seeing that I make the money. This also give us the chance to live on the West coast again. That's exciting to me. It's going to be hard and have it's ups and downs but after we've talked to alot of people this is really going to help us grow too. This will help Billy grow up some and help us grow with in our marriage. I'm now really excited for this. We will keep you updated on how our journey goes. Right now he's trying to lose weight before going to MEPS to do his testing.

Halloween 2009

So this Saturday we went to all the stores to hit up the halloween sales. At old Navy we got two halloween out fits for $2 each and get this 3 pairs of shoes for yes $.97 each. What a deal!

These ones I got in gold:

And these ones I got in blue:

We also headed over to target to see their sales. Well there is this line called Skelanimals. It's like an anit-fur company. Well they have a dog named Dax and I've been wanting to get something for my son. Well they had this line at target for halloween. They had Dax the dog dressed up as a mummy it was too cute and on sale! So we got it. Dax carried it around all weekend. to cute.

So on saturday we went to my parents trunk or treat at church. It was fun and had to be the closest trunk or treat in TN we've had compared to the ones in AZ. The ones in AZ were way cool.

Then after that we went to Grandma and Grandpa's house and craved/colored pumpkins. Dax had his and I carved the big one.

Then it was time to go trick or treating.

He had so much fun, we walked to the doors and he knocked while I rang the door bell.

At first he would just show the people his bag. Then he started helping them put it in his bag.

Then he started wanting to go in their houses where the parties were. It was too funny. His word of the night was WOW! Every kid who walked by for 20 mins on the way home it was WOW, Wow....so cute. We had tons of fun!!

On one of my websites I'm a part of there is a group called pimp my pixels. I put up a picture of Dax and his friend Katie bug up and this is what I got back.
