See You Later...


Waiting at the terminal.


It is always hard to say good-bye, so Erin and I have decided to say "See you later," to Christian. This past week we left him at the PAX Terminal as he embarked on a deployment. He was ready to go, even though we know he will miss us as much as we'll miss him.


One last picture with Daddy.


It is always weird around the house when Christian leaves, so Erin and I have decided to fill the void with some fun trips this summer. We will spend some time at the beach, a quick trip to Italy and she has requested to go to Paris again for her birthday. Who am I to say "no" to Paris??


Waiting for the plane.

We Have Cast!


A picture of the original pseudo-cast.





Spending some quality time at home before he heads out:-(



Some Erin "personality!"


We are excited to report that Erin got her cast on Thursday, June 3! This was our third visit back to the orthopedic clinic and the doctor deemed the bones worthy of a cast. The original plan was to have a long-arm cast and a few weeks later transition into a short-arm cast, but it seems she won't need two after all. Once the cast was on, she immediately wanted to go to B&A so that her friends and counselors could sign.


It didn't take long for the cast to be covered in signatures!




Erin is excited that her last day of school, as a first-grader, is June 11. Then, we have some summer fun planned! We are very excited about seeing some friends and family when we venture to the beach and travel to some castles in Europe this summer.
