2nd Grade isn't as easy as it looks.
Time to go home and relax with a nice book.
Hopefully mom won't notice I have homework.
First Day of School
Today Jacob goes to his first Day of 2nd Grade.
2nd Grade, WOW, Doesn't seem like he is that old.
Jacob's 2nd Grade Teacher is Ms. Weiland!
:)
Jacob has a birthday party to go to at 12.
Can I say again that I'm ready to go back to the states. I'm soo tired of everything opening at 9 am or 11 am. Heck your day is just about over when the store start to open.
Jacob had a blast, Jordan turns 8 on 30 Aug. The party ended up being pizza, ice cream, cake. Then all the kids went bowling, then they went bike riding, and did a sleep over. They watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ate popcorn and Jacob was one of the first to fall asleep.
Soccer Camp is over. Jacob got a nice Certificate.
We went to the JAC Picnic from 12pm -5pm
At 1pm we met Jacob's 2nd grade Teacher. Ms. Weiland. She seems pretty nice. We also met Jacob's New Speech Teacher. Ms. Valentine. All the kids are the old ones, except one. Monday is the 1st day of school. I think he is excited and a little scared.
2nd day of Soccer Camp.
Connor wants to go play soccer with Jacob.
Mike scheduled our initial brief for our new assignment its on Monday.
1st day of soccer camp.
Jacob thinks it is fun.
Today is my last day of babysitting the kids go back to the states tomorrow
We took them to their moms promotion ceremony.
Jacob got $3 from the tooth fairy via mail.
On top of the $5 and 1 pound that he got.
Monday Dental Appt. Jacob got his filling removed and redid.
I started babysitting a 3 month old and a 4 year old.
Me and Kina took them to all the kids to the park in the afternoon.
7 kids in all
Tuesday-Thursday:
More Babysitting.
Friday
Jacob got the rest of the filling removed and redid.
The entire week as been fun.
Connor coming home and saying he is a baby and that he can't sit up. um, I wonder if he is jealous.
Mike and I are finally getting excited about moving to Keesler.
It will be a great job for him. Plus he gets another 3 years to stay out of that crap that is going on overseas.
We will be flying home on or around 20 May.
We have to be down there 30 Jun.
This is going to be a big change come weather wise.
Jacob wants a house with an indoor pool. He was surprised when I told him that the pools are outside. He was thinking it was going to be cold and rainy like here. Funny huh?
Legoland
We had a blast.
There isn't much to say.
Wednesday we drove down to Legoland Windsor did Legoland from 10-4:30 then we went to the hotel to stay the night. The boys played in the pool. Connor tried to drown himself and Mike had to go into the kiddy pool to save him. He was soaked from knees down. Ask the hotel for a dryer, needless to say Mike dried his shoes with the hairdryer.
The next day we went back to legoland from 10-8. The park closed at 7, but we closed the place. Can't wait to go again. Both of the boys were allowed to do the rides. The park is gear towards 3 to 10 year olds. OMGosh, IT WAS GREAT.
The weather was awesome. 78, sunny.
Thursday morning we did take a detour to see Windsor Castle, it is huge and beautiful. We are hoping to get to go back to see the inside.
I'm uploading pictures to my AOL pictures account. I will add the link as soon as possible.

I know I've been missing for about a week or so.
But Mike has been on leave for a little over a week.
The first week went by with the normal oh we need you to go to Germany, No we don't, yes we do. BLAH BLAH ETC ETC. Finally said and done NO GERMANY.
Jacob's Play is finally over. I can't say that we will miss the 5 to 6 hours of rehearsals. The kids fighting etc...
I did the program for the play, helped out with tickets and makeup. Me drawing elves and fairies ha ha very funny.
As for next week, Jacob was suppose to do Missouli Play Robin Hood, but we dropped it, because we are going to Legoland Windsor for two days. YEPPERS, you read that right, two days and one night away from the base. WOO HOO!
Today, Sunday 7 Aug, we went to the Medevil Festival Huntingdons 800th. It was cool, it would be even cooler if I could understand what they say. I love the accents but I can't understand them most of the time.
The boys got wooden swords and shields. :) Mike hung them (the swords that is) on the wall.
Sorry if I'm not around for a few more days, but I will be in and out of the house since Mikey is still on vacation. WOO HOO!
Connor is much better.
Normal voice and everything.
