September is usually the one month of the year that drags on forever. That's partly why we got married in September, because every other month has something to celebrate, and we figured why not give ourselves something to look forward to in September and maybe it wont take too long. This year, it flew by so fast. I still can't believe it's over.
-We got a lot of rain this month. Hallie absolutely loved going out and playing in it. She loves being outside, and when it was sprinkling it was actually nice enough to go out and play for a few hours. That just cant happen when its not raining, 110 degrees and the black asphalt just dont mix with a stumbling baby.
-Big announcement: we moved. Again. I know. And, we are planning on moving again in a couple of months. Yikes. We have decided to go the route of active duty. I know its something Ive talked a lot about and until recently I think we've been too scared to do it. But both of us prayed a lot about it, and honestly felt it was the best thing to do for our family. So, Tyler's papers are currently being signed to get out of the national guard. Once that is finalized, he will swear in with the army again being infantry active duty, he will get a duty station and he will be on his way. I signed a contract with work that I would stay until the semester is over, so Hallie and I will be here until the end of January and then join Tyler (wherever that may be). We are so excited for this new change, but also extremely anxious. I know how hard it will be, but I know it is what we need to do. I just want to know where we will be living already!!! Our top pick is Colorado, but who knows where the army will send us.
-The end of December we celebrated our 2nd anniversary in a big way. We were able to go through the temple and be sealed to eachother and to Hallie. Talk about a good anniversary. Doubt we can ever top that one. It was such an incredible experience, and I am full of gratitude and happiness that I can be with my family forever. I know this may sound bad, but I am so glad we were able to experience the sealing after we had a baby. It is such a strong feeling seeing your baby in the sealing room, knowing how much you love them and would never want to be without them, and then hearing you will be a forever family. Hallie did so well in the temple with Grandma Pico and the other temple ladies. It was a looong day (4-8:30!) and I am so proud of her. After we were out we all went to Cheesecake Factory and celebrated
