Goodbyes

We took Miss Shayla out to lunch today.  We are all going to miss her.      

Then we spent the afternoon at a party to say goodbye to Clay's squadron.  The girls had a great time playing with the other kids and we all enjoyed some yummy food.

We finished the night with one last stop to Rita's.  

Packing Day

Today was packing day at our house!

I had to make some signs so that they wouldn't pack up the clothes we were taking with us and other items we still needed.  ;)

Three packers worked all day and got most of our stuff packed.  They will be coming back on Monday morning to finish up.  Our house is full of boxes now.

The girls and I spent the day in the yard trimming trees and pulling weeds.  

Snow Flurries

The girls were so excited when it started snowing today.

They loved running through the snowflakes and trying to catch them on their tongues.  This might be the last snow they see for awhile.  I don't think we will be getting much snow in southern Georgia.  

Jocelyn's Donation

She loves her new short hair!

Stella's 2nd Birthday!

Jocelyn's niece celebrated her 2nd birthday!

Happy 2nd Birthday, Stella!

National Zoo

Today we went to the National Zoo.

We had fun at the zoo even though it was very cold and windy.

We were thrilled to see the Red Panda.

Lots of the animals weren't outside because it was so cold.

The girls love pandas!

Modeling Meerkat

Silverback Gorilla

My smiling monkeys with the monkey!

Madison even found a dinosaur at the zoo!

We enjoyed our week in Washington DC.  We are so proud of Clay for being one of the very few people selected to interview for the White House physician position.  Although he did not get the position, we know that God is in control and has big plans for us as we move to Moody AFB in the next few weeks.   

More fun in Washington DC

This afternoon we hopped on the Metro and...

went to the Natural History Museum.

Our first stop was the DINOSAUR exhibit!

 Madison named every dinosaur we saw.

 The girls loved seeing the dinosaurs!

 We also stopped to see the Hope Diamond before we left.

Then we headed to Union Station for dinner and dessert.

The girls enjoyed seeing the replica of the Liberty Bell, since they have seen the real one in Philadelphia.

After dinner, we walked to the Capital.
