I got home from Air Force Reserve duty Nebraska last Wednesday night.  It was my birthday, and the boys picked me up at the airport and we went out for Korean food at our new favorite Korean restaurant, called Okie Dokie in Fort Walton Beach.  It was a good week in Nebraska but it was nice to be home.  I missed my boys!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

I can’t believe I took this picture with my very own camera!  My iPhone camera, at that!  Sunset from Navarre Beach, Florida last Friday night.  This is what was awaiting me after 10 days in Nebraska!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

It’s been very busy since I’ve been home.  Lots to do in the community: from helping out with the base spouses’ club, to writing for GeekMom<\/a>, to supporting Dave’s squadron, to helping with the book fair at Timmy’s school, to helping in a new endeavor:<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Yep.  That’s me in Boy Scout getup.  The pack needed leaders and since the rest of my family was involved, and I tag along on all the events anyway, it really wasn’t much more work.  So I’m Timmy’s Tiger Cub Den Leader and so far, so good!  The kids and the families are great!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

The dynamic duo selling popcorn at our local Walmart last Saturday.  Timmy is destined to be a salesman when he grows up!  Jacob has become more shy in his old age.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I’m due back in Nebraska in about 3 weeks, but there will be plenty to keep me busy between now and then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
