Sarah and I had such an amazing time seeing Daddy this weekend! It was so nice to be able to get together with him if only for a couple of days. Sarah had been counting down the days and planned to give Daddy "103 hugs" when she saw him. I don't know if she made it to 103 exactly, but she got pretty close. Only 8 more days until he's home for good! Hot dog!

Golf and Bowling!

Sarah golfing! She had a blast!
Sarah's first time bowling! She got a strike on her first play! It was so much fun!
We all had such a great time hanging out together, and we can't wait to go bowling again!

The Park!

The Zoo!

Sarah loved sitting on Daddy's shoulders while walking through the zoo. Since he's "so tall" she could see everything! We had such a good time at the zoo! Sarah in front of the monkeys. Bryan feeding crackers to the giraffe. It was too funny! Sarah took lots of pictures on her own Dora disposable camera. She loves flamingos! The ostrich could not wait to have her picture taken by Sarah! Mr. Bear looking at Papa Bear, Mama Bear and Sarah Bear.
She's so beautiful!
Sarah playing the "Musical Notes" artwork. Each colored square plays a different musical note--the sounds were really neat!

Last month, Bryan, Sarah, and I gathered food and other goodies to send to a unit of troops in Iraq that one of my co-workers is related to. Sarah and I made this flag for them, and on the back, she wrote, "Thank you. We love you." Here it is on their fridge. I just thought it was really cool that it obviously meant a lot to the troops.

Growing Up...

Sarah lost her first tooth yesterday! On Tuesday, April 8th, it got really loose when Sarah bit into an apple. Then while at school yesterday, her wonderful teacher, Ms. Hayley pulled it out for her--and followed up with a popsicle!
Sarah was so excited to have lost her first tooth! Since Bryan is out of town right now, she cannot wait to show him!
The (beautiful!) Tooth Fairy left Sarah a $5.00 bill for her first tooth! At first, Sarah said that she was going to give the money to Daddy, but after some contemplation, she decided to keep it for herself!
