It's been two years.........

......and boy have things changed!

Kohl is coming home the day after Thanksgiving, Yippy!!! We are all so excited to see him. Kohl mentioned that the family had changed so much since he has been gone......yes that is true! But the changes have all been for the better so I think he will be pleased with what he sees when he gets home.

This was the family the day Kohl went into the MTC (except for the grandparents)

This is the family now (Jeremy isn't in this picture either is Scout and Ranger)! We lost a son-in-law (no big loss) and gained two, Ken and Jeremy, Yippy! Lost Barbara (step grandma, again no big loss) and in that we gained a Grandpa back. Gained Desmond, great addition! We've gained another dog (Ranger, that is still up in the air if this is a good thing or not) Some lost weight, some gained (that would be me) some grew taller (Ky, Karston, Kiana, Kev, Klarissa, Desmond, Scout and Ranger) some got shorter (the grandparents). People have changed jobs, recieved more education. Some have longer hair, some have shorter hair, some shave. Kids have moved out of the house, people have new houses and apartments. I could go on and on about all the changes (no wonder Kohl is a little freaked out). I told Kohl he would be pleased with all the changes......I am!

I can't believe Kohl will be home in two weeks! I am very excited to welcome him home!

P.S. (this is to save the buns) I don't want to offend the wonderful neighbors that moved in while Kohl was on his mission....so yes we got new neighbors, who are just like family so Kohl will have to get to know 6 more peoples names and their dog floppy too.
