Albert and Albert

Albert has signed over six more years of our lives to US Air Force. He re-enlisted on April 2nd. I know the pictures say April 1 but it's a day behind. It would have been kind of funny to have it on April fools day. Anyway this first picture is Albert swearing his next six years away I mean swearing to abide by blah blah blah. I don't remember what was said actually. This took place at the dining facility where Albert works.
This next picture little Albert took. He took it a moment to soon. I wanted to get Albert shaking hands with the commander but he has happy fingers that like to snap pictures before it's time.
This is how they got Albert to sign the paper. hehe No not really but it's funny none the less.This is the moment the really action takes place. He signing away his life I mean he is signing up for six more years. Albert was so excited to be at work with Daddy. Sarah was at school that's why she isn't in any of the pictures. Anyway Albert didn't leave his Dad's side the whole time we were there. Everything we came to "what's that Daddy"?
This last one is Albert with some of the people he works with. Every one else ran away as soon as he signed the paper.

So now we officially have six more years of being in the Air force now. Almost eight years down and at least six more to go. More than likely we still have 12 years to go yet but we will cross each bridge one at a time.
Well now on to other updates as to what's been happening around the Hunsiker house. Well the day after Easter Little Albert fell and cut his finger. He ended up getting three stitches in his finger. After three hours in the ER he got three little stitches. Well then towards the end of that week he got sick. He had vomiting diarrhea and he had a fever of like 100. 5. Well the doctor told me to bring him if things like that occured whether his finger looked OK or not. Well turns out his finger was fine he picked a virus from the first visit in the ER. Well then of course of who got sick next. Yep Mommy did. Albert didn't eat anything really for about 5 days. I was sick about 4 days. Thank God we are the only ones to get sick. I tired very had to keep Sarah away from Albert and I washed all the blankets and pillows and made sure there was no sharing of cups and so forth. Well my efforts paid off and she didn't get sick. I don't want her to miss anymore school than she has too because she is going to miss the last seven days of school for Albert's brother's wedding. We are all healthy once again though. Albert does still have quite a mark on his finger. oh yeah a three year old with stitches doesn't really work that well. He ended up picking one of his stitches out. It was the day before he was to go get them removed so no big deal really. It was a struggle to keep him from picking them out before that though. He kept telling me that he wanted those silly strings out. After he cut his finger he was very worried about his 'wiggleys' falling out. 'Wiggleys' are um how do I describe it ..... the yucky stuff you see in a really deep cut. That's the best I think to describe it. Anyway he was worried that the insides of his fingers were going to fall out onto the floor. When they put the stitches in they put a board on his chest and tied him down. Well they called the board a skate board or Albert did which ever. Well he now has night mares about skate boards. I didn't go back to the room when they stitched him his dad went. I knew I couldn't handle holding him down or having him tied up. I would have cried and not been helpful at all. But he didn't cut any tendons or anything and no infections. So everything turned alright. So needless to say things have not been dull around here lately. Then there is the problem with Lowes and the door that never seems to get installed. I won't go into details because this post is already extremely long. I do however have advice if you need a new door like we do DO NOT go through Lowes. I suggest Sears because they don't hire contractors to do the work they do it them selves.
ON the bright side of things the weather is beautiful right now a little wet but hey not hot yet. I have a garden. Yes I do and I am very excited. I have wanted a garden since we lived in Delaware. Now I really truly finally am growing my own little garden. I have three tomato plants and a pumpkin plant. The pumpkin plant is for Sarah. She been wanting to grow one for a few years now instead of buy one so we are trying that. It's a small garden but at least I have one now. Well now that this is more of a short story than an update I will stop rattling on about nonsense. I hope to keep this updated more frequently. I will try now that things are a bit more calm.
