[celise]

Yeah Df is in Great lakes right now. The weather is crazy! One minute it is nice, next it is completely different! Im going up there this weekend actually. We are going to navy pier? Is that place any good? Glad to hear you got there ok and everything seems to be panning out!!

I can't wait to get up there, just to have a place of my own. I will have to see what is fun to do from there, I hope you meet some great people.

geesh this is crazy lol i cannot wait till or 3 1/2 years is up i went out today to the outdoor center to try to get things to spruce up the yard and they really dont have much there do they? i sure hope this all seems to get a bit better atmosphere when hubby gets back here

Haha I am usually alone in this, but I LOVE it here.

We are always doing things. We started a volunteer program that we do twice a month with our girls and I am usually out and about with them. (I'm from Idaho and hubby Montana so the cold doesn't bother us too much!) I also run a Navy Kids Korner I do once a month which is basically a Mom and tot's arts/crafts hour at a nursing home.

Moving here from Japan, it's SOOO much easier to drive around and get places since everything is in english, haha!

We are going to the Shedd Aquarium next week, just the girls and me while hubby is at work, with some of my girlfriends.

If you can find your own little niche here and some parks and such around, it's pretty nice!

(I will say, though, we have an indoor *shelf* at our house full of playdough, paints, and coloring things and other stuff we do indoors when the weather is icky!)

Oh hey, on Wednesday I am having another Navy Kids Corner, I slacked this month and didn't get very many moms but you are more than welcome to come. It's at 3 pm and pm if you want the details. Anyone from GL is invited!

I didn't mind it to much myself. I would go back I would just live in Wisconsin or something.
