We're Moving!

After 5 1/2 years, it is time to take our blog to another site.  Our next adventures can be found at www.adamandhollytoo.blogspot.com.  Be sure to link to us or save us in your favorites!  For any parents who need a refresher on how to do that, we'll give tutorials the next time we see you. :)

We ran out of space!  We thought cyberspace went on forever, but apparently it does not.  Mom is helping us set up a new blog.  Volume II, if you will, but it is not quite ready to publish yet.  Stay tuned for the link!

We spent a rainy morning at the national wildlife refuge that borders our town.  It was a bit blustery at times, as this wind-blown blue heron can attest.

It can be difficult to get everyone to smile and look at the camera at the same time.  But it's especially hard when the photo subjects insist on sticking out their tongues and closing their eyes!

The latest member of the shoe-tying club lives in our house! Evan decided today that he was going to learn to tie his shoes and he practiced by himself until he could do it. We're so proud of him! We're pretty sure some grandparents and an aunt are going to want to see this.

Happy Veteran's Day!

Today our joint force family is remembering and honoring all veterans, past and present, who work so hard and sacrifice so much to keep our nation secure.  We especially recognize our friends and family who are serving today in support of Operation Enduring Freedom: AWF2 Jon Bennett, CW2 Carl Schimpf, CPT Jennifer Hundt, CPT Anna Kaus, and CPT Chelsea Jordan.  The list is shorter this year, and for that we are thankful.  And again, we also give a HUGE thanks to our family members (Liz, Aunt Katy and Uncle Joe, Grandma and Grandpa) who have so selflessly helped us with childcare this year when both of us were out of town or working weekends and when Mom's training in Texas happened to fall when Dad was working on a deployment mission.  You make a lot of sacrifices, too, and it is appreciated.  Happy Veteran's Day!

Blurry, but not bad for our 5 year old photographer.

Our Favorite Threesome

This photo is courtesy of Grandma while Mom, Dad, Aunt Katy, and Uncle Joe were enjoying 10 minutes to themselves in their car.  The parents said they'd meet us at our destination, and don't worry if they weren't there right away, but Grandpa said, "No.  We're following you!"

Sweet Sleepers

When Mom checked on me before she went to bed last night, she couldn't find me!  Then she checked on Evan...
