The Last Day....

The girls leave tomorrow. I was determined not to waste this day with errands, cooking, laundry, nor shopping.

We went to the mall and signed up for a new family cell phone plan. We have had tracfones. Which worked great for emergencies but cost MORE than a family plan when you have FAMILY that live out of the house. We shopped around and Sprint is the best deal for us...and THEN they gave us a 15% military discount after we'd decided they were the best deal. Sweet. This will make it easier to keep in contact with the girls. Josiah and I were looking at a local plan but Sprint will give us two phones here and two phones in WA.

Stacia asked Jared, "Jer, shall we dance?" And they did.

Mom and Dad gave us a beautiful memorial to our lost babies. It's gorgeous and I'll have to write more about it soon; not tonight.

We went geocaching.
