So sorry it has taken me this long being back in the states to get this updated. I ended up with pictures on two separate cameras and losing the charger for one (but ordered a replacement finally). So I will now go through many different files to find pics to bring this up to date!!
We are no longer in GTMO. We now live in Beaufort, North Carolina and LOVE it. After much back and forth thinking we were going to have to move again this June (Tim advanced to Senior Chief, E8, right as we got here) we now have word we get to stay here til 2016!!
Okay well time for the mass update....
 |
| In 5th grade in GTMO Simon started the Trumpet! |
 |
| End of baseball season! |
 |
| Yay baseball! |
 |
| Simon finished 5th grade on the AB Honor Roll!! |
 |
| End of 2nd grade awards! |
Paige finished her middle school career with a 4.0 but they didn't have a ceremony so I didn't get a picture. But it's note worthy!!
 |
| In June Tim and I celebrated 20 years of marriage. With the help of some good friends he surprised me with a romantic dinner on the beach!! |
 |
| 20 wonderful years and many many many more to come! |
 |
| The beginning of the good byes.... |
 |
| June is a mass exodus of all of the families moving from GTMO. |
 |
| Goodbye pool party for Nixon and two of his buddies moving also. |
 |
| Many goodbyes.... |
 |
| We were one of the later families to leave. |
 |
| Our turn to go... Paige's friends saying goodbye. |
NORTH CAROLINA FOR US!!
 |
| We have 2 fishing docks in our neighborhood and we are truly enjoying them!! |
 |
| About a month after we got here Cousins came to visit. It was so wonderful to be with them after 2 long years!! |
 |
| Someone turned 41 |
 |
| Tim, um yeah I think he enjoys the location of his office out at Ft. Macon in Atlantic beach. |
 |
| Pretty much spends his lunch hour fishing and bringing home dinner! YUM! |
 |
| Pool time fun in our neighborhood pool. |
 |
| First day of school!! 9th, 6th and 3rd. Both boys' schools are awesome and Paige has opted for Homeschooling. She is very self motivated. |
 |
| Simon turned 12 in October!! |
 |
| Carving our Pumpkins for Halloween |
 |
| I was a Pirate, Simon (well we just threw stuff together for fun and everyone here thought he was Willie from Duck Dynasty a very loved show here so sure that's it) Paige a shadow, Tim Bacon and Nixon was a Ninja. |
 |
| Paige made many children cry... a lot of kids were scared to get candy from her LOL. Whoops. She looked awesome though! |
 |
| We ended up having to trade the BMW in for a Honda Accord a much more reliable car. So it was fun while it lasted a few months but nice to be in a reliable car we can feel good and safe in. |
 |
| Someone turned 40!! Tim surprised me with a huge cake at our small group from church! |
 |
| We had a wonderful relaxing Thanksgiving. |
 |
| Simon achieved Honor Roll his first quarter of middle school. A goal he set and worked very hard for and put forth lots of effort. We are proud parents! |
 |
| Simon stated Taekwondo soon after we moved here and has already advanced to orange belt and is enjoying it. |
 |
| Picking out our tree for this year! Everyone but Nixon is now taller than me and Simon has passed Paige up by at least an inch! |
 |
| Always fun to decorate the Tree! |
 |
| Yes he really is that much taller than me now! |
We are truly blessed to be where we are and LOVE it here. We live in a great Neighborhood and got plugged into and awesome wonderful church right away. Many families from church live in our neighborhood which has been a blessing in itself!
Hope this find you all doing well and heading into a wonderful Christmas Season! I will update again for Christmas and New Years!
