APRIL 2010 - FIESTA/WHAT'S NEW WITH THE FAMILY

Well if you have lived in San Antonio, you know that every year in April the city throws a big party "Fiesta" which has a bunch different events and last for two weeks.  We have lived here for a long time if you count before our military life began, and in the past before kids we did Fiesta every year, but since kids the last couple of years we have made it the parades and thats it.  So this year we went to the fiesta event held on Ft. Sam Houston, it was pretty good, they had rides for the kids and of course fireworks, so at least the kids had fun.  Rowan wanted to ride this crazy ride so here is a picture of that, we unfortunately didn't take too many pics. 

Well another quick update, as previously blogged, Chris got his medical waiver approved last month and well he just finally got a new school date. He leaves May 20th for OCS in Fort Benning and will graduate August 12th, which me and the kids will be flying down for and driving back with Chris. Then late September he will go to MP school in Missouri, he should finish that around Febuary. As of right now after all of his schooling they have us going to Hawaii. We are pretty excited about Hawaii, my only concern is the schools for the kids, I have heard that Hawaii's education system isn't great, and unfortunately the schools that are located on post are not run by DOD. Oh well!!! We will just have to see. I can't wait for the next adventure to start, that is what is great about the military. It may not be the easiest life but to be able to see parts of world that you may never have seen otherwise is pretty cool. Hopefully after Hawaii or wherever we go I hope one day to go back to Europe. So that is what is going on with our family. I will hopefully do better at keeping this updated as we go through the remainder of this year.
