7. Presidents Weekend Jon's mom was so sweet and came up to watch Tyler for us so we could have a weekend away. Jon and I on Friday headed to Nashville to stay at Opryland. It was our first time and it was amazing. We ate some amazing food together and really enjoyed some time just the two of us and rekindling flames. Sunday Jon's mom brought Tyler to us and he stayed Sunday and Monday with us at Opryland.
8.  In March Jon's unit had a marriage retreat in Nashville and it was great to get away. They provide childcare so it was nice to spend time just the two of us. The weekend did bring some issues and I started having some bleeding so we made a visit to the ER and then spent the weekend afraid that something was happening to baby. Luckily we were able to go see my doctor on Monday and everything was great with baby and it was something normal that can happen.
9. Also in March Jon went to Fort Polk, LA for 10 days. During these 10 days I got Strep Throat, a severe sinus infection and the Flu. It was fun times around here.

13. The end of MarchJon went to Fort Leavenworth in Kansas for 7 days training.
14. Also on March 29 one of our favorite malls in Nashville re-opened. We went the first weekend of April to see what all had returned to Opry Mills and it was a adventure. Too many people for us to enjoy much but all the stores had a lot of great sales. We also ate lunch at Rainforest Cafe were we had a 2.5 hour wait. It was pretty good but I am sure it was not Jon's favorite at all.
15. The month of April we also spent a lot of time on the boat. Jon loves fishing and Tyler is his mini me. He loves so much being on that boat.
