Visit with Cardwell's

A couple of weeks ago Nolan and I visited Brian at SOS in Montgomery (SOS is Squadron Officer School and is a 5 week course that most Captains have to attend at some point. Brian is graduating today and I'm proud of him and ready for him to come home!!!!). The Cardwell's (who we know from Cheyenne) are stationed at Maxwell, so they invited us over for dinner. We were totally spoiled with their cooking, it was very yummy and we got to eat outside and enjoy the nice weather. Their son Hudson is 3 and he and Nolan had fun being up to no good all night! The following Sunday, we met them and the Bentley's for brunch. Dan and Becca are more folks we know from Cheyenne...it really is a small Air Force! After brunch we decided to go to a park to let the kids let of steam. It was so nice to reconnect with everyone and try to catch up on the last two years of our lives! Military life can certainly have it's challenges, but the advantages of connecting with someone almost anywhere you go is truly rewarding. Our wonderful hosts, Bryan & Julie: Hudson & Nolan: Brian pushing Hudson & Nolan on the swings. Becca, Dan & their beautiful baby girl (10 months), Abby:Becca & Abby:The whole gang minus the "photographer" and the two boys. It's hard to tell because she looks so fantastic, but Julie and Bryan are expecting their second in a few months!
