I haven't blogged in forever it seems. Landon is growing oh so fast such a little boy now. It's funny because sometime he is such a rough and tumble boy and other times he is my little baby again. But this child is absolutely fearless! He will run into the ocean like its nothing even with out floaties now, and he climbs fences in a breeze. Karl is not going to know what to do with him when he gets home. So anyway here are some random pics I thought I would share

My little monkey climbing on our fence

I just love this fluffy bum

Here is a video of Landon jumping around in the hot tub showing us how he can hold his breath and is ready to try swimming out for real!

R&R

I know it has been FOREVER so I am going to do a mass blog! First is a little about our R&R trip... Landon and I picked Karl up from the Fort Lauderdale Airport, the week prior to his arrival we were all trying to make sure Landon understood that Dada was coming home. Well that was the understatement of the year, he saw Karl and just about burst out of my arms knocking me over and attacking his daddy. He was so excited, and being that he was in uniform all the ladies around us were crying. R&R consisted of sea world, Disney, and the beach... in other words walking walking, Micky, walking, shamu, walking, and more walking!!!!! We were exhausted.

Christmas

Merry Christmas... Shiner
Spike

Thanks aunt Kami... I am going to get you back!

missing daddy....

Cheese!

Over all we had a pretty good christmas! Landon got lots of presents, including a yo gabba gabba guitar from his wonderful aunt Kami. He also got the hit toy spike the dino. Who walks and roars and everything. Landon was a bit scared of it but only when it turns toward him mostly he likes to play with the remote and laughs histaricly at it. We visited my grandmother for christmas dinner. On the way in the door christmas night Landon tripped and hit his eye on a stone statue ofa boot on their porch. Immediate black eye that is finally going away. We went to my inlaws a few days later where we enjoyed more presents. We missed Karl a lot and can't wait to have him home.

Here are some fun pics of Karl playing in the Desert.

First is a pic that was used for our monthly newsletter,

in which Karl was the spotlight soldier.

Also in the newsletter was a page on the Brass Quintet or

"All Brass , with Amo"

a little play on words from boot camp. Anyhow here

are some pics of them just jammin in the middle of

NO WHERE!

This is kind of a cool picture. I just like the angle.

Hope you all enjoyed. I ask that everyone continues to keep him in your prayers,

he is keeping busy and having fun here and there, but he misses everyone

and can't wait to come home.

Its begining to look a lot like christmas!
