Lets see here, yesterday we went to the Warrior and Family Transition Center (WFTC) and competed in a Rice Krispies Treat build challenge. Shane came up with the idea of making sea turtles on the beach playing with beach balls. Sounded like a good idea. So with Kayla's patience, my knowledge of the beach, Shane's ideas and attentiveness, and Carli's ability to eat building materials we built a beach complete with sea turtles, beach balls, a palm tree, the ocean, and a sun/starfish. And of course we took first place! The prize, a 35 dollar gift card to Toys-R-Us! Afterwards we went to the pool and tried giving Shane swim lessons, that lasted about 1/8 of a second before he was drowning. He can swim awesome underwater, he just cant grasp the concept of keeping his head above water to breath. I think its because he does so many pushups... Anywho, we came back to the room for the afternoon to rest before dinner. We went to Papadeux (sp).
TASTY!!!! Some of the best seafood I've had in a long time! We had a great time with Cathy and Nathan and some other chick who I cant remember her name.
Today, we had breakfast at the WFTC. It was some good eats. The Sergeant Major of the Army was making omelets for everybody. Crazy. But good to see him supporting his troops. I didnt have one, I dont see it in anybodys interest for me to get involved in conversation with the SMA. So we came back to the house and saw Cathy and Nathan off and went shopping. And boy did we go shopping, San Marcos Outlets is officially an off limits place for us. Not that we spent too much money, but we all felt like we hiked a mountain by the time we were done. From now on for me it is Wal Mart or buy it online. Later.
