reminising

i miss xanga.. and blogging.. and back in the days before myspace when all my friends would yell at eachother when they didnt update..
no one blogs on myspace. its just pictures and quizzes. i want more then that.

i guess wether people will read these things or not, i miss writing and im bringing it back.


life in japan is great. the fact that my husband gets to be home with us all the time instead of on a ship is even greater then the fact that were living comfortably overseas right on the beach.
that is definetly amazing though..

the base here is great and has everything americanized as you can imagine. its like the base in SD, but way wayyy better.
we've got a cute little mazda out here. even though we miss our car thats patiently waiting back in the states for us, its pretty nice filling up your tank for 16 bucks.
small little beater cars are love when being stationed overseas.<3 its like theyre passed down to random friends from random friends everytime someone PCSs.

my kids are amazing. i cant even describe or put in to words how smart, hilarious and sweet they are. theres just so much they do that can make you fall in love over and over again. its so amazing that it hurts!

this month theyre starting their first classes. tayla will start ballet this friday that will be once a week and for 3-4 year olds only. then they have PT for tots which will be mostly for jayden since tay has ballet and hes too young for sports, but both can go. its 2 days a week for kids under 3. its just a little class where they move and dance around with other kids.

speaking of the new year, ive always thought it was overrated and that its just an excuse for people to drink, i do have some resolutions for the first time this year..

1. excersise and tone up.

2. be more patient with the kids. theyre only kids.

3. save money!

4. plan things more often including monthly dinner menus.

5. do a lot of sightseeing.

2008 was a great year. probably the best. we made a great move, a reinlistment [with ship life not included], our family is happy and complete. watching the kids grow has made the year top any others all on its own. 2009 will be more chill, but definetly one that will be worth remembering.

now enough of that, cuz like i said new years is overrated. hopefully ill keep up with updating because, like i said, i miss it.

time to wake hubby up and shower. our day today will be filled with trips to the playground, grocery shopping and video games. hopefully a free movie later on with some drinks with hubby.<3

love, aprilbunny<3
