Must have coffee!

Yesterday we NEEDED coffee, you know those mornings. Anyway the day before Paul had to go to the store because we were out of coffee, and when he returned home we realized we had one coffee filter. That worked out well, until yesterday when we NEEDED coffee. I went to the kitchen half awake to make coffee and NO coffee filters. We forgot to buy more. I tell our dilemma to Paul and he says "Can we dump out the one from yesterday?" I thought "gross.... that might work." Well just to let you know, you CAN reuse a coffee filter at least once. Haha We love our coffee.

As for everything else, we still don't have word about Paul getting back in the Marines. We should know by mid April now. The delay is hard for us, because it's just such a long process. We keep thinking maybe this is because he is supposed to find another job. He has been looking. We are a one income family of 4, so this is hard to find. We looked into moving to a small town and living the "simple life". We went to Smithville on Saturday and went to a park and drove around looking for houses for sale or rent. I really like the idea of a small town, but finding a job close enough to commute is difficult.

Also since the last time I wrote we were all Baptized! We did it as a family, and it was great. Paul went 1st then me, then Asher and then Ezekiel. The boys did great! I'm glad it was just putting water on our heads and it didn't involve dunking us, because I can't imagine the boys being alright with that! haha I know I keep saying it, but I will try to write more. Oh, goodness I forget to mention Asher turned 4 and had a Cowboy party! I will have to post pictures at some point too. AND, my Mom moved to Austin!!!!! Welcome to Austin Mommy!
Until next time- Ali
