Happy Halloween

Hi Everyone,

Well.....We are staying in Tucson!!! This was our first choice and we got it...Thank you Lord!! What a relieve to know that we will be staying in one place for three years...I will probably start to get the moving itch around one year, which will be great because we should be able to move into new base housing around then too.

EJ, Olivia, and I got to go on EJ's first field trip to a pumpkin patch about 45 minutes out of town. It was a beautiful day for a hayride out to the patch to pick out our perfect pumpkins. I could not believe that pumpkins could actually grow in the desert but I guess with alot of water anything can grow. We each pick out a pumpkin and then went home to spend the rest of the day outside. Bo helped the kids carve the pumpkins on Sunday and by the following week they were already moldy and rotten. Thank you Tucson for the 95 degree heat in October, that cooked our pumpkins. So on Saturday we attempted to pick out new pumpkins at another pumpkin patch with friends of ours. We did get to have Jack O Lanterns for Halloween night, but that's about how long they lasted.

Bo's work had a great kids Halloween party, where the kids got to get all dressed up and play games and eat lots and lots of candy before we went out trick or treating. After the party we met up with some of our friends on base and went around the neighborhood. There were so many trick or treaters that many houses ran out of candy before the night was through.

Bo found a new sport this last couple of weeks...He now is into off road biking...well I guess technically there is a dirt road (with tons of Cati). He has a ton of fun, but I don't think it would be all that enjoyable dodging cat us and rocks. Ill leave the extreme sports to him.

Well that's about all to report here. We hope everyone had a safe and fun Halloween.

Love to you all,

Nicole
