Dusty's Going Away Party with Friends

We went to Dave & Buster's for Dusty going away party with his friends. He had really been wanting to go and this was a great time to go!
I am somehow missing the 3rd table. Sorry :O(
Niran, well past his bedtime with all the tickets his friends got him! He got a bunch himself too!!
You'd think they'd get enough Guitar Hero at home!
Some last minute bonding time before saying good-bye to Dusty!

Catching up!

I know it's been forever since I really posted what has been going on, but to put it simply IT HAS BEEN HECTIC!!! I'm pretty sure this has been my first day that I didn't have anything that had to be done since before the wedding. Granted we do need to get ready to leave for our mini-vacation tomorrow, but I can spend maybe 30 minutes on that tonight. For now I'll catch you up on all the happenings.

We carved pumpkins with Aunt Brandi, Uncle McKay and all the cousins and went trunk or treating in Queen Creek. Niran had fun handing his bucket out to collect candy. Even had his first sweet tarts and candy bar!

We went to Fountain Hills for lunch and frisbee with Uncle Ry-Ry



I also finally finished the quilt and pillow for our friends, Lincoln and Melanie's baby. Who happens to be here now! Dec 11, Gemma Dylan!

I Got My Letters From Dusty...Finally!

I have been waiting, not very patiently. And I was disobedient!!! When I talk to Dusty on Thanksgiving he said to wait for his first letter before giving out his address. I finally gave up thinking I had misunderstood him and gave out his address. The next day (today) I got 3 letters and the first one said not to give out his address and to have letters sent to me first. He said it was b/c you have to runn 400m for each letter, but after that he mentioned he rolled his ankle and it was swollen and bruised. He can't go to sick bay otherwise he starts over :O( So he's sucking it up, which I think is a very good reason for fewer letters. He's doing good, but definitely needs encouragement!! I'm sending him a package tomorrow since the PX did not have everything he needed. I didn't miss him a whole lot until I got his letter and now I miss him terribly. I wish I was there to give him a great big hug and let him know how proud of him I am!!! I'm nearly 100% sure we'll be in AZ for Christmas. I need to get everything sorted out, but will let everyone know when I know!!! Take care everyone!!
