Daily Highlight
Daily Highlight=Getting to take pictures for Lana's Junior Homecoming
Lana asked me to take pictures of the girls while they were getting ready for their Junior Homecoming. Such an honor! I had so much fun! I will post the pictures once Lana gives me the okay.... Hope she is still dancing her socks off, because I am off to bed.
And a "just because" picture...I just love her.

Daily Highlight(s)
Here is to day one of posting the daily highlight. The daily highlight turned into actually posting three highlights for today.
Highlight #1- New reward system for using the restroom in the potty. Caroline used the potty four times today and was rewarded with M and M's. Thought I would never reward with candy, but this is where we find ourselves...
Highlight #2- learning a new focus technique with my camera. I took this picture with my camera of Lana's camera. Lana and I both got new cameras for Christmas and we have enjoyed learning our new settings together.
Highlight #3- Caroline and I got to watch Matt fly today. We are SO proud of him!

A Picture A Day Keeps The Doctor Away
Well, I have not announced this yet to all my blogging friends, and I debated and went back and forth about announcing it. However, I do think it is important to document these feelings and this time period for Caroline to read about when she is older.
Matt will officially be leaving for Kosovo in July. Many then ask Kosovo? Where is that? Well, Kosovo is near Serbia and mainly Albanian in population. It is currently at a plateau. Matt will be leaving with the Medevac unit later this Summer. As times gets closer we will keep you posted on more details.
As for now, I have started preparing myself for our family's first deployment. One of the things I told Matt I would love to do each day is to have the highlight of the day. The highlight can be anything from an action, an item, or an experience. This gives Matt a chance to experience our day with us. I was going to start this in July, but I thought it might be better to go ahead and get used to posting the daily highlight now. So, tonight I will post one picture and one highlight from our day. It is going to be hard to pick one daily highlight, we have so much to be thankful for each and every day.
Below are some pictures from this past weekend. Caroline is such a hoot! We love her so much! See you tonight for our daily highlight...

Out with the Old and In with the New
The Ritchie Crew has a new camera! I went to Bedfords last Friday and made the final decision. I am overly excited about the new camera, but I have just started reading the manual so I am learning new things every minute. The pictures below are set on the automatic setting, and it is going to take a while to learn the manual settings.
Matt had drill this weekend, so we had a girl's night last night. We had pedicures and facials.
Below is our new smile. Caroline walks around now saying CHEESE. She also is very opinionated and sometimes tells me, " I'll be right back, and do not take a picture of me."
Check out this face. Poor girl fell down.
We watched the game Friday night until we could no longer keep our little eyes open. Hadley and Caroline snuggled on the couch and became friends.

Caroline made a reindeer(out of her hands and feet) this year for her school craft.

Happy New Year
We decided at the last moment to take a family picture at our house and it turned out pretty good. My parents are so proud of this picture, and they should be with an amazing and loving family. We celebrated Christmas this past Friday once my brother and sister-in-law arrived back home from their trip to Florida.
...well, and I forgot to post a picture from Caroline's first trip to the salon. Better late than never!
Grandma Etta added to our collection of baby dolls, and now Caroline has to feed four babies, stroll four babies, sleep with four babies, and take four babies everywhere we go. She is such a wonderful Mommy, but she cracks me up because since she cannot carry all four at one time, she always gives me the little boy baby. She treats the little boy as an outcast.
We have had a blessed and wonderful Christmas Season. Matt and I are both off work today, so we are headed to the Wonder Place to meet some friends. Cannot Wait! Happy New Year!
