4 down 16 to go

I am so far behind in posting that I am now going to play catch up....

Back in NOVEMBER, (I know I am so late), Troy reached the end of his first enlistment with the Air Force. The thought of separating with the military and moving back to Arizona seemed so great. With so many of our friends moving away the past year, I was loving the idea of being close to family and friends again. However, Troy and I were both in agreement that this is where we are suppose to be right now. I love being able to stay home with the kids and separating from the Air Force would not give us that option. To make a long story short, it didn't take much to decide the best thing for our family was for him to reenlist.
It was a great experience because one of our friends, a long time family friend of Troy's, was able to swear him in. It meant so much more this time around. It was great knowing we had the support of a good friend and the time he took to do this for us.

The swearing in...
...The happy family (and friend).

(Sorry for the poor quality of the picture, a good part of the reason Santa brought me a new camera.)

We have got another six years of military life ahead and we look forward to what those six years will bring to our family. We continue to meet new, fun people all the time and I know we will have long lasting friendships with a lot of the people we have come to know and love. You all know who you are! ;)
