Joe leaves us for a 6 month deployment. He had already been gone for three months by this point.

We are able to Skype Joe. We are all so excited.

Bryson is awarded his second award of the year.

We are 8 months pregnant with boy number 3.

My sister gets married. Joe and I celebrate another year of marriage.

I took the boys to a Monster Truck Show.

April:

Chase is born. We miss his daddy terribly and are so sad he isn't here to share this moment.

Mimi comes out to visit and help with the boys. She is only able to stay a week, but we are so thankful.

Bryson gets his third award of the year, I turn 30, and we find out we are moving to JAPAN.

Carter turns 4. We have a small cake for him. He says he wants to wait until daddy comes home to have a party.
