I love the Fall

Last year at the local Pumpkin Patch, making the best of our time together before the deployment. So much fun!

The boys hard at work carving. I didn't get a picture with it lit up, but Rick came home just in time to see their skeleton pumpkin.

Learning How to Stamp

A couple of pages of a journal I put together for one of my closest friends. It brought me so much joy to learn more about her and her family and loved ones through entries and photos that were sent to me.

Zappo Verde!

This is Rick's cake the year before since he couldn't be with us this year. Thanks to Bake Me A Wish though, we were able to send Rick a cake in Afghanistan.

If you purchase a Freedom Cake from www.bakemeawish.com for a recipient here in the US, they will also deliver a cake to a soldier overseas. This program is in coordination with their partner, Soldiers' Angels http://www.soldiersangels.org/ , who informs them of soldiers that are in need of encouragement and support.

Happy Birthday to my three guys!
