No doubt you’ve seen Lego mini-movies all over the web, but I think this one is my all-time favorite. If you’re a “Les Miz” fan, you’ve got to check this out. It’s one of my favorite Les Miz songs to sing. I usually sing the part of Enjolras (he’s the brunette in the video with the red shirt and big sword). I know I’m a girl, but I’m also part French and I’ve got leadership issues. As in, I’m always trying to be the one in charge. And people actually follow me. Scary. The Mac and Cheese Chronicles, coming to a barricade near you.
I’ve been without internet access for almost two weeks now, since the base Temporary Lodging Facility(you us civilians call it a hotel) has a shocking lack of wifi. Thanks to my friend Jenn, who let me sit in her backyard and use her wifi while she was out of town, I’m here to let you all know that our move has gone well so far.
The packers only took 2 days. However, the movers took 14 hours, so the truck didn’t pull away from the house until 1:30 in the morning. Good times.
Pumpkin Girl’s dance recital was a lot of fun and Phil and Boo had a grand time at Cub Scout camp. Philip had his last day in uniform and we closed on our house. Last night we sat along the Potomac and watched the fireworks, surrounded by good friends. This morning we said goodbye to our church family and the parish where our children received a total of 5 Sacraments. The nice thing about Philip being in the choir was that we sung all of our favorite songs during mass.
Tomorrow we head out on a four day journey to our new home.
It’s a surreal experience, saying good bye to friends and to the Army, but knowing we’re saying hello to our first home and civilian life.
Hello and welcome to my life! Spend a little time with our (newly retired!)Army family of 6, and if you stay for lunch, we're probably having mac and cheese.
