Sunday Summary!

~We were turned back at the gate. ::snort:: We were selected for a "random inspection" this a.m. on our way to Sunday School/Chapel. I didn't think it would be a problem, but I could see their uneasy glances. I remembered that my license was expired BUT I had an extension. I showed it to them. I didn't get a tag for my license...it's a print out....they were relieved. Then they pointed out my inspection tag was expired.....BUT the active duty man said it was FINE since the vehicle is licensed in AK.....then they noted I didn't have current proof of insurance. Oops. It expired this week. I HAVE PAID IT but the little card hasn't arrived. They told me they knew I was on my way to chapel, but they weren't allowed to let me through. I went to the visitor's center to call USAA so they could fax the proof....their SYSTEM WAS DOWN! They couldn't even look up the account to verbally tell the guards I'd paid.... So....Josiah walked in to the chapel to let everyone know we weren't showing up at Sunday School. Debbie brought him back out and took Josiah, Jamin and Jared in. The littles and I went to Kid's Kingdom (photos to follow) for an hour.

~Steve, Debbie, their boys, and our boys met us at Kid's Kingdom and we sent out for lunch.

~After parting, we went to the Stock Show and Carnival. (Photos to follow).

~We then went to find a few geo-caches.

~I went shopping for this week's meat.

~We're now watching "Flushed Away" and then will have shakes...then bed...and I'll try to load photos.

BUSY DAY! It was not what was planned, but it was the day we NEEDED. A day to play, have fun and be TOGETHER as family. God knew. We're much more relaxed and revived than we would have been if our original plan had worked....we needed to play together at the park and such...

De'Etta,

You can go online to USAA and print a copy of your insurance card if you want. I print the new ones every six months.

What a really great day you all had...so many smiles and happy faces.

All the photos are great. You and the kids are just doing wonderful! Your man can be very proud and pleased with how well you all have done while he has been gone.

Great photos from the stock show and park.

A pain about being turned away at the gate for church but looks like you had a lot of fun playing.
