Stroller rides

Molly and I have been enjoying the outdoors this week. This is little girl all snuggled up in her stroller while we went on an adventure around the neighborhood. Notice the hat, lovingly hand made by her gram. We have lots more than just this one but I love the little bow on the top!

Bryon had duty all week, which basically means he has to leave for work around 5:15am, skips lunch and doesn't get home until around 6pm or so. Fortunately, this isn't an every week thing but it is definitely getting old. This is a four day week for him though, so only one more day of duty left! One good thing about the Army is that they observe every holiday known to man, so despite the crazy and sometimes ridiculous things he is asked to do, we do get more days off than most people.

Oh and please say a prayer for Bryon tomorrow. It is the last time he will EVER have to jump out of a perfectly good plane again, THANK THE LORD! Most people don't know that he is very afraid of heights. Yes, that sounds crazy I know, but he chooses to be airborne because of the extra $450.00 it gets you per jump. The Army doesn't pay a lot by any means so every little bit helps. Plus, I think the bragging rights will be worth it one day when he is able to tell Molly stories about his old Army days jumping out of perfectly good planes. :)

Love the new blog look AND Molly's hat! I am so glad Bryon is ALMOST done jumping! I used to wait for those lovely "not dead" text messages he would send after a jump was over! God has kept Bryon safe all this time. I know we can trust Him to continue...and especially tomorrow.

I can't believe Molly is already closing in on 4 months! She looks so big in her stroller and hat. Very cute!
