Today we went to Daniel's pre-school Thankgiving Lunch. They combined both the morning and afternoon preschool classes so he saw some of his friends from last year also. His friend Christopher which is also on his basketball team was there as well and of course Daniel sat next to him. Hailey came along as well cause all family was welcome including siblings and one of her friends from her preschool class was there as well cause her brother is in Daniel's class and Hailey was happy to see her friend. There was lots of food and we all had a very good time. Hailey also has a pre-school Thanksgiving lunch but her classes is next Wednesday so look for her class harvest lunch next week. We will be going to hers as well and we will pull brother out of his class 45 minutes early so he can attend hers as well. Hailey's is during normal class hours in the afternoon.

We went to our really good friends Andy and Amanda's going away Friday night. That is the worst part of being in the military making really great friends and then they have to pcs (term military uses for move). They are moving to Japan. We are going to miss them alot. They are like family to us. The kids call them Uncle Andy and Auntie Amanda and we know it is going to really hard on them cause they dont understand that they are moving away and it will be a long time until we see them again. They have been watching the movie I Carly goes to Japan knowing that's where they are moving but they dont understand Japan is on the other side of the world. They relate to them being like Grandma and Grandpa and Grandma and Pap Pap and they think we just have to get on 2 airplanes and we can visit. We do hope to be able to visit them while they are in Japan. We found out its a 7 hour and 15 minute non stop flight if we can get on a hop from our base which is a special military flight. We are hoping to go here to visit once they have their baby and a few months before we leave Alaska cause it would be our once in a lifetime chance to get to travel to Japan also. Once back in the states it would be way to hard to take a flight with the kids to visit Japan. I do know Uncle Andy and Auntie amanda will be sending Miss Hailey alot of hello kitty stuff considering they are going to be in hello kitty headquarters and ill be shipping them alot of packages from stores from the states they wont have acsess to. We will definitly stay in touch cause they are some of the best friends weve met since being in the military, and thank goodness for web cams we will be able to see each other on the computer and that helps the kids alot to keep in touch with everyone far away.

Hailey was just being so cute and photogenic this morning I had to share these pictures. She could definitly be a model. She was posing for the camera and I just kept clicking away. I took the kids today to see the movie Madagasscar 2. They loved it. They sat and didnt budge for the whole movie and Hailey actually stayed quiet. She usually talks throughout most movies we go to. Daniel and Hailey have become very close to their friends Bella and Nicholas. They go to pre-school together and Hailey, Bella, and Nicholas are in gymnastics class together.

Nicholas and Hailey were holding hands and walking into the movie together it was just so cute. Only 3 years old and she already has a little boyfriend. Daniel doesnt really have a friend as close as he used to be to his friend Kelsea when we were in Fairbanks. This is the first time Hailey has really become extremly close to someone. Here are also some pictures from Daniel's basketball games. He is just about at mid -season right now and has about 8 games left. Hailey is continuesly getting better at gymnastics and learning new things each and every week. Here are some random pics of the kiddos. I can't believe it is already November. The holidays are right around the corner with alot of new pictures and posts to come.

MONTGOMERY GENTRY CONCERT

I had the opportunity to see Montgomery Gentry in concert last night. We dont get many concerts up here in Alaska so whenever someone big comes here its a huge event. We had seats in section A row 16 right on the floor. Being only 16 rows from the stage I got some pretty good pictures. They really put on a great concert and rocked Alaska. I can't wait for the next brave country act to come here so I can go to another concert.

The kids had a very good halloween. They started off the day by going indoor trick or treating at the hospital on base. They got tons of candy there. Then it was off to preschool. They were not allowed to dress up for school but Hailey's class had pajamas day so she wore her pj's to school and her class watched the movie the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Daniel made halloween pumpkin muffins in his class. Then after school we got bundled up and went trick or treating around the neighborhood. We only went to about 8 houses then came back and passed out candy cause it was too cold. It was 13 degrees outside last night. After we finished passing out candy we went to our friends Andy and Amanda's house and the kids were wearing their matching halloween pj's. We had a great halloween even though it was pretty cold outside and yes even Zack and Butterscotch Pony dressed up for the day.
