My little soldier!
That evening, Eric, Mom, and the kids went to the base carnival and picnic for 4th of July. (By the way, I get this question a lot, the British do not celebrate July 4th any more than we celebrate "we lost to Vietnam" day) Ava and Eric rode the teacups until dizziness set in and then they ate hot dogs. Daddy is a brave man...
Ava had to ride in the front of the train, and Eli would not be left behind! They were both enthralled by the fireworks and refused to leave until it was over. I think they slept well last night...One final note: My sister Carissa is currently busting her tail at Basic Officer Training at Maxwell AL. I know she would appreciate any cards, letters, or care packs as she is pretty cut off from everyone. We are all so proud of her and praying she is getting a little sleep! If you want her address, post a comment and I will e-mail it to you! Cheers!

Jennessa,
Please send Carissa's email and snail mail addresses. We will get something sent right away. I heard she is having a time of it.

Eli looks absolutely adoreable with your hat on! I can't believe the words he is saying. Seems like just yesterday he was that little guy who couldn't even walk! Eric is a very brave man for taking the kids, but it looks like they all had a blast! Talk to you soon.

I can't believe that you have a sister named Carissa. My name is Carissa, and I live in Alabama, too (Huntville area)
Please give her my best and let her know that "the other Carissa" will be praying for her during her training.
The kids are getting so big. We really miss you guys. Thanks for sharing the site with me. I will save in my bookmarks and check often.
