Catching up in 2007

Hello everyone! I thought I would create a site that will help everyone keep up with each other. I'm new at this so bear with me. I was typing for an hour when i realized I had messed up and all was deleted. Needless to say i will try to keep this short just in case it doesn't work haha. Well let's see it's 2007 already and already we are ready for next year. In Jan we celebrated Scott's 34th b-day with friends. We had a great time. He got his Bose/Ipod combo which made him a happy hubby. In February Anthony celebrated his 20th b-day. We wish we were there to celebrate with him. We know he had a great day. Let's be honest he really can't wait until his 21st!! Dad came out to visit at the end of Feb. What a precious time we had. How exciting it was to see dad visit his old base on Sand Island. Imagine he was stationed here in 1952. Things have definitely changed around here. We saw whales, turtles, and lots of sites. It meant the world he came because I know the flight was horrible.
In March we celebrated Austin's 10th b-day at Tiki Island. The party was awesome and he had fun with his friends. It was a good day. In April we celebrated my B-day and Dad's. I had a football jersey and wing night party. So many friends came to celebrate. I didn't realize I would meet so many people here. People who become just like your family. Everyone is so amazing and have made being away from all of you easier. I am truly blessed. We danced and sang out loud it was fun. For dad's party we did a burn your own steak night. If you could have seen the gifts he got. I tell you what the friends dad has made here he will never forget. Dad left the island shortly there after and things slowed down temporarily. Austin will have a job this summer taking care of our neighbors dog Sandy. We are horrible parents and told him he would have to earn the money to buy the "Wakeboard" he wants. It's kind of like a weird skateboard. It costs about $90.00. If the job goes well and he doesn't lose the dog he gets $100.00. Scott's parents (Chris & Ed) are finally in Alaska. It's a place they have wanted to visit for sometime now. I'm so happy they finally got to go. Last I heard dad is hunting Bear and mom was sight seeing. I think they are going King Salmon fishing next. Austin was supposed to go then we found out kids under 12 can't fly alone...bummer. Anthony just bought a 2007 Jeep Unlimited we are so happy for him. Which he really needed because he is headed to Tennessee to work at Dollywood for the summer. Woohoo his first road trip in his jeep. I know he will love it. The only part I'm worried about is that he can't have a computer....withdrawals are the pits!!! It's no secret now that we are trying to have another baby. We figure when the time is right it will happen. Keep your fingers crossed. Oh which reminds me.......we should find out if Scott made chief in 2 weeks. I tell ya between orders, chief, baby....I won't have any finger nails left! Let me explain. This Friday (1st)we find out where we are going finally. However that could change if he makes chief because if he does then all bets are off. At that point we would extend here a few months and I have no idea where we would go. It's so hard not knowing. I am a list person(i think I got that from my mom hehe) and I can't plan for anything. What is the saying..."adapt and overcome"????? I'm trying really i am. My mom and dad are trying to figure out where they are going to live. I say come and follow us since none of us know what we are doing. I am so glad to hear Aunt Linda's surgery went well. We are taking one day at a time and waiting. I will update often and post pictures of what I've written about. I love you all and miss you!!
