Chris is home!!!

Much to my surprise, Chris came home over the weekend! It is so so great to have him home, we are enjoying our time together very much. I've been cooking his favorite foods, doing his laundry, and letting him nap :-) Callie is enjoying attacking her daddy's feet. We decided just to stay home and spend time together while he's here for a week, instead of traveling. I'm planning a big trip through Italy for when he comes back in September!

For Valentine's day Chris bought me a new printer, it's awesome. It's an HP photosmart so now I can print my own photos! That's very helpful since I'm a scrapbooker. It's wireless too, so we put it on our network and don't have to hook it up to our computers with a usb cord. Newfangled technology that I understand, yay!

We tried to do our taxes on base at the legal office, but all the computers were down. Confused and sick of waiting, we decided to go to H&R Block in Ramstein and I bet it only took the guy 20 minutes to do our taxes! We are so relieved to have that done. We tried to file online the other day, but my Missouri stuff was iffy and wouldn't let us. I have special things because I have foreign income, and the nice man got everything squared away and ready to go! That's a big weight lifted off my shoulders. Hopefully taxes will be easier from now on.

Callie is super cute, as always. She's gotten used to sharing the bed with only me, so now I wake up trapped between Chris and Callie with hardly any room to move! I've been quilting a lot, and trying to teach myself guitar. I checked out a book from the library and bought a book yesterday, but I really need help with the hand positions and guitar-specific information. I'm trying to find a teacher, so far no luck. One of my piano students wants me to play the Peanuts theme song (Linus and Lucy) for her, I guess I should practice and set a good example ;-)

Here are photos of Chris's adventures in training.
