January - March 2015

When we returned from Hawaii we found out that our dryer broke while we were gone. One of the benefits we have being over here with the military is that we can get some larger items on loan, our washer and dryer being one of them.  Anyhow, we scheduled a time for someone to come out and check the dryer, but in the meantime the laundry continued to grow.  Even after they came out and decided it needed to be replaced it was going to be several more days, so for the first time in our 8 years here I loaded up the laundry and went to the laundromat on post. I'm still always amazed how quickly the American washers and dryers work.  Elly loved the process and really enjoyed helping me fold laundry before heading home.  She's such a sweetie ♥

February brought lots of parties going on at school for Elly.  Throughout Kindergarten I would go in on Fridays to help out in the classroom. I loved being in there with Elly and had a lot of fun helping out.  We loved her teacher, who made the year fun.  This was one of those days when they were doing an experiment.

Of course Valentine's Day brought another good reason for a party at school,  My little girl looked so cute all dressed up and ready for her ice cream party.  

In March we had our checkups at the dentist again and Elly did great as always.

St. Patrick's Day party at school.

Elly looked so cute as we were getting ready to go out to the Easter Egg hunt/Spring Fling on Patch☺

This has become a yearly tradition for us.  Of course, Sam has to work it every year so it's nice that we get the chance to spend time with him even though he's technically working.  This year there were horses to ride and Elly really enjoyed that.
