Joseph is 3!!

More birthday pictures posted on our Mobile Me Page (see sidebar to the right).

Today we celebrated Joseph's third birthday. He is such a blessing! We celebrated at the beach with our amazing neighbors and good friends from church. We played in the ocean and ate an entire cake from Costco, along with a ton of munchies. Despite going without naps, Joseph and Kendra maintained good attitudes and didn't drown. Wonderful time. Joseph got some very cool presents.

Now, it is 1 AM on Sunday and we are frantically packing hoping to jump onto a military flight to California in 4 hours. Plus: it's free. Down side: we aren't guaranteed to get on the flight. Our great Texas adventure begins today when we try to hop a military flight with enough room to Cali and then hang out there (camping? hostel? seven hour road trip?) until a train heads to Texas. In Texas, we plan to ride horses, ride dune buggies, go to James' cousin's wedding, go to Sea World, camp, ride more horses, shoot guns and RELAX. Then we get to reverse the adventure with the train and military flights at the end of the month. My neighbor, EmilieAn, said I was either stupid or smart. We won't know until we try to get back!! I'll keep you posted.
