It's Been a While...

It has been a while since our last post. This summer has been so busy and has just flown by. We have spent lots of time outside. I can not believe that the summer is already coming to a close. Yes we have a few weeks left. But fall is right around the corner. The falls are beautiful here and I am sure will bring lots of fun new activities. Tatum will officially start Kindergarten =) Yay. We are really looking forward to it!
Joshua re-enlisted into the Marine Corp on Wed August 4th for another four year tour. It came after much prayer and we are looking forward to what this next tour may hold. We will be leaving sometime in the early winter months to our next duty station. They are telling us right now some time early January. But any of you who know the military know that this is very tentative until we have our official orders. We are expecting them sometime this month or next. As of right now the only openings they have for his rank and position are 29palms and North Carolina. So we shall see. We are looking at the East Coast. Still praying about it though.
Tatum's eye has been getting better at every appointment. Her last check she was seeing at 20/30 a huge improvement from 20/100...Praise the Lord and thank you to all of you whom were praying we really do appreciate them. She has lost seven teeth already. Right now she has four missing with none that have come to re-place them =) She looks cute!
Elyssa is doing Great! She is very excited about school starting and is really looking forward to roller-skating Fridays. Every time we pass by the roller rink she asks when school will be starting so that we can go back.. I think this is an activity that both of the girl's are really looking forward to starting back up.
Titus, well he is almost as big as Elyssa. He is growing so fast and is just a big boy. I think he will be tall like his uncles. Only time will tell. But as of right now he is catching up quick with his big sisters. And he lets them know it...LOL...
Everything is amazing here in Fargo. Just starting to clean out closest and do what pre-paring we can for our transfer. I know that it will sneak up on us quick. They always do. I am sad to leave Fargo. But I am super excited to see what God has in store for our family next. He is so good and faithful I can not help but look forward to what he has prepared for us!

With Love,
Brittany, Joshua, Tatum, Elyssa and Titus





Joshua had to work the Red River Valley fair for the Marine Corp. We went and spent the morning so we could spend a little bit of extra time with Daddy and have some fun. Tatum, Elyssa and Titus all wanted to ride the ponies. Who would have ever thought that you would have to pay $5 a child to ride for 2 minutes. But iot was worth it. They loved it!



Pictures from the fourth of July.


Just a few random pics taken after breakfast. I thought Elyssa looked so cute she had been walking around with the necklace on her head like that all morning. She reminded me of a little hippy =)
