Christmas Decorations





The holiday season is here! This time last year we were packing up and moving into base housing and our Christmas decorations weren't so great. This year we couldn't wait to get all the decorations up. We started as soon as we finished our Thanksgiving lunch. Jason and Rachel assembled the tree; Ethan and Rachel did the ornaments all by themselves, I was pretty impressed. As bad as I wanted to rearrange the ornaments I left them just how Ethan and Rachel put them on the tree, they were so proud that I let them do all the ornaments by themselves. They even decorated their trees from last year, we planted them in the flower bed.

Biloxi Shrimping Trip

What a warm beautiful day to be on a shrimp boat, even if it is the first week of November and Thanksgiving is right around the corner. We did the Shrimp Boat Trip and it was great; perfect length of time and the dolphins were a bonus. This was on our list of things to do while in Biloxi, and I'm glad we did. Interesting fact from today: Did you know a special knot is tied onto the end of the nets today because dolphins were smart enough to learn how to untie the old knots?
