The kiddos arrived last night! Just in time for the 4th of July!  Although there will not be fireworks on post this year, there are fireworks in our hearts.  An excitement because Mackenzie & Danny are here.

It's that time of month.  The time when stepchildren across the land descend on military posts.  I've written about this before, "July, the Month of the Military Stepchild".

Military Stepkids - It's Fashion Show Day!

    Our kids are here every 3 months for 10 days to 5 weeks at a time.  After the first couple visits of them toting luggage back and forth, we decided we would buy clothes for them here.  There are a few reasons why:

• Not having to wait that extra time in the airport for the luggage
• No luggage fees with the airline
• Don't have to have a conversation with Mom about what clothes to send and why
• Not being dissapointed with the clothes mom sent
• Mom not being upset with the way we returned their clothes
