"Flaming Queso"

She looks like a little gnome :)

This pic is sooo cute of Zoe & Greg

The Friday that Kevin came home, we all hung out at mom and dad's and had pizza. Saturday night, Greg and I, Kevin and Trish, and Billy, Krissy and Zoe went and ate at Marketplace and then hung out at Krissy and Billy's for awhile. It was great! Sunday morning Kevin, Trish and Krissy came to church and then we went to lunch at Mazzio's and then that night had a bbq at mom and dad's. It was a wonderful homecoming weekend for Kevin and we are so glad to have him home!

Kevin is Home!!!

Kevin finally came home to us on April 25, 2008. The India Co. 23rd Battalion arrived at Camp Pike in NLR at around 3p.m. I didn't think I would get that emotional, but as soon as the buses pulled up I was boo-hooing. Krissy and I didn't think that we were going to be able to go to Camp Pike to meet him, but at the last minute we were both able to! We had a looong wait. Mom, Dad, Trish and her son and mom were there since noon. Krissy and I got there around 1:45p.m. DAD CRIED. Talk about sad, oh my goodness. But it was great! Just completely wonderful. Christopher did get quite impatient, but after he got a snack he was good to go again. We got some great pics and video. It is so awesome to have Kevin home and we got to spend a lot of time together with him and our family over the whole weekend. My brother is home!!

Christopher's "letter" to Uncle Kevin

Of Sheet Rock and Jet Tubs

We have walls! The first pic is the kitchen. The second pic is the living room w/the box ceiling . Then the tub, back of the house, and view from the garage. With Krissy living down the street you know she'll be in my tub all the time, just look at the pic!

It Looks Like a House!

Well, the house is really coming along! We still have a long way to go but wow! Christopher and I are so excited. And man do I ever thank God that Greg is with me. I can not tell you how much help he's been. He's made me think about things that I would never have thought about and I know my house is going to get buit right. The pic of Christopher is in what will be my closet and the bottom picture is the living room and the view of the backyard.
