Home Safe and Sound

My cousin Becky came home for some R and R from Afganistan. The minute she got off the plane her boyfriend proposed! My aunt Kathy had a party for her last Saturday and we were able to go without the boys. Tim and I were so grateful to see and hug Becky, to meet her fiance, and see that she was in one piece! My group of kiddos has been sending care packages to her since she was deployed last Easter. They have sent her treats, tons of pictures, and letters filled with love.
Thanks to my Uncle Terry and Aunt Colleen, the boys had an absolutely unforgettable day! Seriously, it is all they talk about! They took the boys to a movie, hunted for pine cones in the snow, and made valentine butterflies. The boys can't wait for mom and dad to go "away" again so they can go to Uncle Terry's house.
