David's First Day of Work

Last Thursday was David's first day of work. He had to be there at 7 and at noon he called me and said he was on his way home and didn't have to be back to work until Tuesday. So now today is David's first full day of work. He is on the CGC Chase.

The kids ran out to meet him when he got home his first day.

My boys love to match!

Kian came up to David and said, "Ahh I cut my thumb off." Then he asked for some ketchup to put on his hand. David colored it with marker. He is so funny!!

Spring Program

The kids has their spring program at school. David also was in it in his Coast Guard uniform.

I am not sure who this kid is, but I had to take a picture because that is David's old Navy uniform.

Richard I Bong Award

We went to Milwaukee today because David received the Richard I Bong Award.

The event was at the Wisconsin Club. I believe it was built around 1891. It was opulent!!!

David and Senior Chief Evans

The stairway. I wish the pictures would have come out better.

Chicago

I forgot to post this earlier. During spring break David got his board for Officer in Chicago. We decided to all go and spend the night in a hotel.

Here is Station Sheboygan. That window next to the garage is David's office. The office and the garage were build while David was stationed here. He was responsible for making sure everything was taken care of during construction.

The kids where really excited to go swimming at the hotel!!!

Judah really liked the pool. He wanted to swim on his own. The whole time he was trying to get out of our hands.

The next day we took the kids to the Chicago Science museum. That place is so huge! We didn't make it through the whole place, but we sure enjoyed what we did get to see.

This was for sure my favorite part of the museum!! They were actual fetus at different stages of pregnancy. I could have spent hours walking through this part. It was in a way creepy to know at one time they were growing in their Momma's belly. David DID NOT enjoy this part!

This was my other favorite part! Watching chickens hatch!!!! They would get out of the shell and move a little then just lay there. I would sometimes wonder if they were even alive. I stood and watched these little guys for a while, but I could have watched much longer.

Here is where they go after they are up and moving around. For some reason they all came running up to Kian like he was Mama. You can tell by his face he enjoyed that too!
