2-12 Infantry Ball

This past Thursday we attended Calebs Military Ball. This year it was held in the Antler(Hilton) Hotel. The Army had reserved their ballroom and had it decorated very tastefully. We enjoyed our dinner of beef, green beens, potatos and dessert of strawberry cheesecake. We enjoyed our night out but couldnt wait to get back to kenley. They had provided daycare for the evening and we rushed back to her. When we got to the daycare center the ladies just kind of laughed about the fact that we were the first ones to pick up our child. Kenley did very well being away from us (first time ever being left with someone not related, or a family friend). We learned that she got in a kicking war with another baby a month younger and was pretty determinded to win... :) The ladies kept commenting on how lovable and cuddly she was.

We have been really questioning if Caleb getting out was the best thing for us financially and family wise. Overall we had a great night out together, but we had our questions answered that the lifestyle of the army really isnt for us.
