Missing Him Monday

Today I got to shovel the first real snow of the season, though admittedly it wasn't all that much. Perhaps a half an inch to an inch of accumulation. Still, shoveling is his job and one I am not the best at. I feel silly trying to look like I know what I am doing! =)

So, missing him today is...

...and so is my back. Ha!

Missing Him Monday

We are a game family. Before we had children, he and I would play board games regularly. We hadn't owned game consoles for a long time, but we did enjoy computer games often, too. Now that our boys are getting older, they enjoy playing many games. We mostly play dice games now, unless you count the many hours enjoyed playing on our Playstation 2 and Wii. Our oldest boy loves Super Mario and Tetris. He also plays Lego Star Wars. It's fun to watch him playing, mostly enjoying himself (though sometimes getting frustrated) and getting better. He (the hubby) enjoys these games, as well. I really enjoy watching him play, mostly because he is good at them and I am not, and the games are nearly as entertaining to watch as movies are sometimes.

So, for today's Missing Him Monday, missing him is...




We are so looking forward to him being home, all of us playing games together as a family! There are just about 2 months left to go on this journey now! Yahoo!

I love my minivan. There was a time, not that long ago, when I refused to have a minivan, but I have been converted. In fact, I have a hard time imagining myself driving anything else! Having said that, sometimes it is nice to be the passenger. To just sit and enjoy the view. To just stare at nothing and get lost in your thoughts. That kind of thing.

He doesn't leave his base and doesn't have any need to drive. I don't know if he misses that or not. But, missing him this Monday is...



And the passenger seat misses him to. He also loves to sit and get lost in his thoughts, or enjoy the view, or sleep! =)

This post doesn't need much explanation...

The beer hasn't been touched since he left. I am pretty sure that this is what he may miss most...well, a distant second behind his wife, children, extended family and friends. ;)

There is no end to what creativity can come from a pile of leaves.

We have such funny boys! =)

A Monday with few words...

Our new toothbrush holder is missing his toothbrush...and so is my toothbrush! =)

(By the way, Honey, I changed toothpaste type since you left).
