New Adventure...

We found out last week we will be leaving Okinawa soon. Our EFMP reassignment came through and they are relocating us to the states so Keira can get the audiology care she needs. Technically we are only leaving 6 months ahead of schedule but it feels like our time on Okinawa has been cut drastically short. I guess partly because our PCS back stateside is a whirlwind one, typically you have 4 months to prepare.
Though we are excited to start this new chapter in our lives, I can not express how much we will miss Okinawa and the wonderful people we've met here. The past 3 1/2 years here have been great. The people (our awesome neighbors!), food, scenery... a piece of my heart will always remain in Okinawa.
Arigato gozaimasu!
7 months :)

Walkin' Girl!!

Peyton's started to walk on her Dino walker! She surprised me while I was doing dishes today and went from the TV stand to her walker and into the kitchen all by herself! Then when Dada got up she showed him how she walked!

In Okinawa!!!

We're in Okinawa!! Woooo-hooooo!!! It took forever to get here! We arrived last night at 6:00 local time, 5:00 a.m. (FL) and 3:00 a.m. (ID)!!! :) I haven't been able to take any photos yet, it's still raining from the tropical depression. So far we've been able to check out the BX- which is HUGE, Commissary and we went to Camp Foster to the Macaroni Grill with Laura & Steve and Andrea & Mike! We've only seen from the car the town between Kadena and Camp Foster- Andrea said maybe Monday we could go to the 100 yen store!! I'm excited bout that! It's like our dollar stores in the states but suposed to be WalMart quality stuff! Laura said we'll go to Jesco tomorrow too! I guess it's suposed to be like a mall and nice! I can't wait to take photos to show everyone! Hopefully the rain will let up tomorrow or later today and I'll be able to post photo's soon. Not sure how often I'll be able to post because the TLF here has no internet...

Boise Fun

We drove up to Boise yesterday and visited our favorite spots for the last time! :( We went to Fujiyama- our favorite Sushi restaurant! Yeah, yeah I know it's not like we won't be able to get sushi anymore! They've got the BEST sushi though!! We got a tuna roll, bronco roll and red snapper combo to split and it was SO good!! If anyone in Idaho is reading this and you wanna check it out if you go you've GOT to order the bronco roll- it's not on the menu but you can still order it- you will NOT be disappointed! It's THE best! It consists of shrimp, cream cheese, avocado, and asparagus then they flash fry it so it's got this crunchy tempura outer and then they drizzle eel sauce and spicy mayo on it- YUM!!! SO GOOD!!! We also visited Kid to Kid and Peyton got some more Baby Einstein DVD's, baby leg warmers and some more clips for her head bands and beanie hats! Fun day! :) Here are some more pics of Peyton mastering sitting up!
