Addison and I went to visit Nathan in Oklahoma while he completed his C17 intstructor pilot training in January. The course was only supposed to be 4 weeks long, but between the earthquake in Haiti needing the C17s he was training on and a week long power outage in Oklahoma due to an ice storm, the training lasted about 7 1/2 weeks.
When he returned home from OK, he was given a new job at the Command Post. Because of this new job and the training it requires, they were going to extend our Washington assignment for an extra year. However, a few days after returning to work, Nate found out that he was given an assignment to MacDill AFB, Tampa FL! We are so excited about this move! He will be flying the Gulfstream 5 for the Air Force. We are looking forward to the sunshine, the beaches, and visiting Disney World frequently! We are not so excited about trying to find renters for our house in WA, though :(
The extended training in OK and a new assignment were both unexpected and unplanned, but our newest additon to the family is something we've been hoping for for quite some time. Addison is going to be a big sister in October. My due date is October 6th and the pregnancy is going well!! Now, we are just trying to figure out if we are moving to FL before or after the baby is born??????
Here are a few pics from the last couple of months!
We went to an Oklahoma City Thunder basketball game (the old Seattle Sonics). Addison had a blast!
Addison was able to spend a lot of time with her Godparents, Preston and Liz.
