Less than 2 years...

Since this is our first blog, I (Tracie) wanted to start off by giving a countdown of our time left here in the UK. Less than 2 years...where has the time gone?

Sydnie was 6, Lexie was 4 and Bubba was 2 and still had a pacifier. I can still remember the long flight over.

We got here in 2006 and thought that 2010 was too far down the road to even imagine. But as we come to a close for 2008, we can't believe it will be here before we know it. We won't know where God will place us next in our Air Force adventure but we do rest peacefully in His will and providence for our family.

There are still many things we want to do and see while we are still here. Harry's flying schedule has been pretty regular so it's been hard to plan anything around it. We are also very involved in church activities and love that we are so busy serving at the chapel. We truly love our church family.

I have recently started a new endeavor/hobbie/job. I am an Independent Design Consultant for a small company called Bella Donna Couture. BDC makes handmade boutique handbags and accessories. I sell at home parties much like Pampered Chef or Tupperware. However, the products have basically sold themselves and I am loving every minute. It's the easiest thing I have ever done job-wise. The site is www.belladonnacouture.com if you want to take a look.


We are still homeschooling the kids. They all really enjoy the personal time we share together learning. I love that I have taught my kids to read. Reading is my passion so I am overjoyed at the idea of sharing a "great adult book" with my kids when they are older.


Well, until next blog...remember our door is always open!
