Way back Wednesday....

I've been wanting to get more serious about keeping up with my blog. I used to do it pretty regularly, but then I was introduced to Facebook!! Anyway, I'm pretty sure I don't have many blog followers (or at least nobody leaves me any comments), but I'm determined to have some more fun with it and try to stay current on our lives and what's going on in the Rogers household.

I love my scrapbooks, and now I'm totally IN LOVE with Apple TV. I know that sounds really crazy (it's not just about recording your favorite shows), I have found it can be my ALL day scrapbook on my TV. I love that I can upload my photos and watch my precious children come across the screen.

All this to say, I've been digging out old photos and thought I would share a few of the kids when they were small. I just can't believe how fast the time has flown by and my babies are growing up on me! Enjoy!!

Baby Luke....one of my favorite pictures!!!!!

The Griswald's take Guam!!!!

Daddy and Luke snorkeling on the beach outside our hotel. Luke did awesome!

This was our view off our balcony! What a great way to wake up every morning!




Scuba Luke!!!!!!
Ever since we landed in Korea, Feb 1st 2009, our family had not taken a family vacation. The timing never seemed to work out with David's schedule, or my back problems interfered, or we just couldn't afford it at the time. Finally we saw an opportunity to go over Thanksgiving 2010, so we jumped on it!! We took 8 full wonderful days, packed our bags and headed to warmer weather. It was so cold here in Korea when we left, so heading to a tropical place was a luxury!!

We stayed at the Pacific Islands Club at Guam. It's an all-inclusive place, and most importantly they have a Kids club for the kids to go to so mommy and daddy could take a break!

I would like to report we did some amazing, exciting thing while we were there, but this trip was all about relaxing.....and we did JUST that! We were either by the pool, on the beach, shopping, or eating! It was so nice after 2 years of being in Korea to go spend time as a family and not have an alarm clock or an agenda! Guam was a beautiful island and I will treasure this time we had as a family!

P.S. Did I forget to mention that my husband left my camera and video camera at home, bought another camera in the airport, and then got the charger and box stolen from the new camera in the airport......That's why this would be titled, "The Griswald's take Guam"! :)

China 2010

In November 2010, I had the great opportunity to go to China with some awesome ladies. Ever since we had orders to Korea, my sights were set on seeing China. We had an amazing and fast 4 day trip!

Father/Daughter Dance

Daddy got to escort the sweetest little lady to the Girl Scout Father/Daughter dance this year.

It was a close call that daddy was able to attend since he was TDY that week. There was one happy little girl that night her daddy showed up on the doorstep! These pictures melt my heart!

DMZ

David and I finally had a chance to sneak off for the day and head to the DMZ. After seeing everyones pictures, it's nice to actually see it for yourself. It's a very uneasy feeling that across that border there are North Koreans that do not like you and would probably kill you! I'm so glad we got to see the DMZ while we were stationed at Osan.

Fall Soccer...yes, I'm behind!!

Fall soccer has come and gone. I'm so behind on my blogging!! It may take me awhile to catch up, but I will eventually get it all posted! We have been a very busy family with lots of activities going on for the kiddos! Soccer was so fun this fall. Sydney has finally figured it out, so it's very fun to watch her grow and learn. Luke is rather comical to watch at this age! He's such a busy boy, so soccer is such a great sport to let him release all his boyish energy!!
