He had been in Thailand for 2 months on TDY; it was meant to be only 3 weeks, but the airplane needed some work and we were anticipating his return every 3 days.  All in all he had a good time going to the beach and taking ferries to islands!

The kids and I have gotten into a pretty good routine.  It’s one of those military wife skills: absorb the duties, keep busy, and get into the rythmn of being the one at home for a bit. Sometimes backing out of that again is tough. 

Now, back to reality….   oh, and he finally got to open his birthday stuff a month late. =)  We are happy to have him, tan and all!
