Our Week!

Owen started soccer.  Eight year old boys take the game very seriously so this might be an interesting season. 

Race #2 of the season. I was so sad to find out that Team Reber couldn't run the race together.  Bikes and strollers were a no go, so I did this one for the team! Running alone was kinda like an exclamation point of Pascal's deployment being over and Team Reber being united.  I used the time on the run to really thank the Lord for getting me through the months alone.  So thankful for family and friends, the emails and packages that people sent (AMY).  It all helped us make it through this part in our military journey!

And I'm off!

 

Pascal, Owen and Meg met me at mile 9.75 and ran the last bit with me.  I was so excited to see them and thought it was so sweet of Pascal to wait for me and run the last part with me!

Look who came in 1st!

Lots of special time with Dad!

Meg made this little tree house out of Legos all by herself.

We headed off to band practice on Thursday night. I totally dreaded it because I had not practiced for the entire time while Pascal was gone.  Pascal laughed at me as were leaving because before we left I vacuumed off my bagpipe case because it was so dusty.  But you know, practice went great.  The band was so excited to see us again and I put those pipes on my shoulder filled them with air and like old friends we picked right back up where we left off.  I will always love this instrument!
