4 Day Weekend :-) Thanks, Columbus!








For all the inconveniences to our life caused by the army, the four day weekends definitely do a little mending to my opinion of the establishment. This week was the first of three weeks in airborne school for Cody. The school is on Fort Benning, so he just commutes to training daily. In the past year, four day weekends have not happened as scheduled because Cody has been training. They decided that it is not necessary to give four day weekends when in training. Bummer. Luckily Sergeant Airborne (all of them) must desire their four day weekends.

This past Tuesday Greyer went to the movies for the first time. I am not a movie person and have only been to the movies once in the 10 months we have lived here. It came as a suprise to me, arriving at the theater to see Toy Story in 3-D with my 2.5 year old, that there is a mini amusement park INSIDE the theater. Crazy. I also had to pay a $10 matinee ticket. seriously? A lot has changed since I last went to a matinee. Greyer was thrilled at the whole experience and behaved very well. There was only us and one other family at the 12:15 showing. Greyer did enjoy walking up and down our aisle pushing the arm rests up and down. :-) He's a boy; what do you expect?

Today we are planning on going to the pumpkin farm. Greyer loves fall things-- especially seeing the 'monsers' (monsters). Tomorrow we go to the Rock Ranch ( http://www.therockranch.com/index_2.htm ), owned by the founder of Chic Fil A. 88 and sunny is the forecast for today.

Have a wonderful weekend and Columbus Day, I know we will :-)
