VALENTINE'S DAY

So Sorry this is late! Our Valentine's Day was full of fun. . .for everyone except Jackson. He had a stomach virus and fever, so was unable to do a lot of the things we had planned.

Michele, Chance and I attended our neighbor's one year old's birthday party at City BBQ! YUMMY! That's all this Weight Watcher's girl has to say. The kids had a good time.

Jackson and Chance were supposed to attend another neighbor's 6 year old's birthday, but we cancelled due to the illness (poor fella took it well!).

We relaxed the rest of the afternoon. Jackson and Chance played the Wii. So, we thought he was feeling better, and headed off to church. . .not the case. As soon as we hit the doors, Jackson ran to the bathroom and was sick again. So he stayed with his dad in "large group" (Chris does the IT for the children's large group ministry).

After church we headed over to PaPa Murphy's to pick up two heart shaped pizza! They were so yummy! Poor Jackson at plain noodles, but he didn't complain.

The kids had a great time at their Valentine's parties at school. I was able to print off Valentine cards from Chuck-E-Cheese for them. If their classmates go to Chuck-E-Cheese, they get 5 tokens for free. Cheap way to do Valentine cards and I guess they were a hit.

OK! So I'm new at this thing. Don't know how to post pictures or do any of this yet, so have patience with me! We yet have official paper orders, but have received verbal orders that we will be moving to Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland! We are excited, but will be ecstatic when we have papers in hand.

So receiving orders also means we are closer to graduation. As of November Christopher is still surviving school. . .not bad for a guy who has 3 kids and a wife that is in graduate school! I still have a 4.0 GPA, but we'll see how this quarter fairs.

We are currently on a break from all sports for the kids, but will soon find ourselves at the soccer field 3 - 4 days a week. We are excited for the spring soccer season as Michele will also be playing! She says, "I'm gonna score a GOALIE!" It's the cutest thing ever!

Michele is currently in dance class on Wednesday evenings and really enjoys it.

I'm doing my clinical rotation at Dayton Children's Hospital this quarter. I'm working in the Pulmonology Clinic (see asthmatics, Cystic Fibrosis kids, and other respiratory problems) and will start my rotation in Nephrology Clinic on Feb. 13.

Well, that's our post for now. I'm going to try and figure out the picture thing!!
