I was feeling a little crafty today! I made this cute count down for the kids for Christmas! Well and for me to secretly count down for Ben to be in Utah! Now just to buy some chalk and start the count down right?? I need addresses if you'd like a christmas card from us!
Aidan helped papa set up the Christmas lights today! He loves helping papa any way possible!
Aidan and Kennedy loved every minute with their cousins this Thanksgiving! They all played so stinking cute! Aidan cried really hard when he had to say goodbye to Audrey, Maddie, Thomas, and Spencer. Now for a day of snuggles. My mom, Cashelle, and I went to Bath and Body Works for Black Friday it was crazy and fun! Full of giggles!
We had our pictures done by an amazing photographer. Here is a couple. I seemed to think they turned out amazing! Now to order some for the family before we move to Oklahoma for 4 months!!!!
Well today we did it. This mom sent her lil man off to school on a BIG YELLOW BUS!!!! I woke him this morning and he was SO excited he JUMPED out of bed. He ate a good breakfast (had to force him) and told me how excited he was for the day and what he did to use GOOD MANNERS! Jude (Aidan's Best Friend) knocked on the door this morning and was SO excited also. He looked at Aidan and said COME ON AIDAN ITS TIME FOR SCHOOL! Jude asked if Aidan would ride with him on the School Bus. I think its GREAT that he has a lil buddy to go with and enjoy new adventures with. We SURE will MISS our CROVETTO family. A lil update about our family. We are moving to Ft Sill OK. Ben will be going to school for 6 months there and will be an EWO guy(As Army guys put it) But Electronic Warfare Officer to the others who are UNFAMILAR with Army LINGO! We are excited for this adventure and even MORE excited that within the NEXT couple of weeks we will also know where we are headed to AFTER Ft. Sill!!!! Thanks for keeping up with the Holladays!!!! I will strive to do better to update this for you all!!!
Alright so much has happened to us this LAST year and I feel like such a FLAKE that I haven't kept up with the blog. Ben has been eliminated from flight school. We had a hard time with it at first but somehow we will find purpose! We may have bigger and better things that LAY ahead! Ben's excelled and done AWESOME here. There was just ONE slight maneuver he had issues with and the Army was not willing to allow him the time to do so. He's had other guys interested in him in other fields so we are going that route for now.
Heidi's been busy doing hair! She's got the Fort Rucker gals quite pleased! And they are pleasing her by allowing her to do what she loves! She's also recently started to sell Scentsy! She'll sell you on it too so watch out! She's reached goals and made extra money for our family that we didn't expect to see out of that business. She's doing her best at keeping the house picked up, kids fed and happy and taking care of her needs and wants as well.
Aidan will be 5 this November. Where did the time go? He'll be starting Pre-K Aug 22 and going to be taking a bus to school! Stay tuned to see those pics. Mom will be standing with Kennedy on the curb crying in UNISON! LOL Aidan's into star wars with his daddy. He's really enjoyed all this quality time with his dad! He and Kennedy have also learned how to use their imaginations together instead of FIGHTING all the time!
Kennedy is 2 and a half going on 29! That girl has PURE ATTITUDE! She's def getting her mom back for all the stuff her mom did to her nana! And I know Nana just sits back and smiles! Kennedy's so full of life. She's into all the girly things but you can tell that girl hangs out with BOYS all day long!
We are STILL in Alabama but making great use of our time here. We have had some crazy trials, Stumps and bumps in the road but have managed to grow closer as a family! I'll do my best to start to update this more weekly so you can see the kids grow and keep in touch! I hope many of you haven't lost touch with our blog don't give up on me quite yet! Pictures to come SOON!!!!
