The Kids Arrive

Air Force Air Force You're the best
You are better then all the rest

Working hard every day
But there is fun along the way

Great friends there are to be made
I hope my happiness will never fade

Hi Everyone,
Well things are pretty much the same here. We are still trying to find a place to live. We are under pressure now as the kids arrive next week. Things at work are great. I really love it. The Community in st. Louis has been terrific. PPL are unbelievably nice. We have been stying in different ppls houses for the past several weeks to save money on hotels and every shabbos we have been invited out to meals. I can't believe this is the same unfriendly town I lived in as a child. That is all for now.

The House Hunt

It's the Story of A Lovely Family
They had 4 children of their own.

They lived on 4 continents
yet they were all alone

The Air Force moved them to Missouri
Where they could not find a home

Oh what will they do
Yeshiva tuition, help they need a loan

Hi Everyone,
I apologize for not writing it has been a very busy 2 weeks. We are still searching for a place to live. Nothing else really new to say. I will keep you all posted. I will still try to write once a week or so.

Howdy folks,
Well we have spent the week in St. Louis and Illinois. We remet some old freinds a friend from college and my best friend from grade school. Pretty crazy. We are looking like crazy for a house to rent but there is nothing available. Monday we go to talk with the kids school. I hope it will be good. I went to the same school for 6 years growing up. I feel like I have come full circle.

Love,

Howdy everyone,
The movers packed and finally finished loading late last night and we got on our way. We are almost in Tennessee where our youngest child was born. The best birth of all my kids, on The Farm (started by Ina Mae and Steve Gaskin check out their website), Wow that was an experience of a lifetime. He was born in the water and I also used hypnosis for childbirth with him it was amazing and my midwife Deborah was amazing too. A wonderful place to have a baby.
I can't wait to get to Scott Air force base. I am so excited to be in the Air Force as an officer and a midwife. Even though the training was really rough I learnt so much there. I am so excited to be serving my country.

Love To All,
Kimberly

COT IS OVER HEE, HAA, HOORAY!!!

AEF was so much fun
Mini Iraq with lots of sun

Sleeping in tents yeah that was great
Ooh them bugs I do hate

Code red turn out all the light
In the tent it was dark as night

Fake patients everywhere
Weston's moaning like a bear

Back to the dorm five minutes to shower
Hurry, hurry they did holler

Off to Officers club we did go
Now we are first class don't you know

Majors and Colonels buying us drinks
Wow what fun don't you think

Hanging out with the the Major
He is awesome won't you wager

Next night there was the mess
we all came in formal dress

Juliet flight went to the grog
now our brains are in a fog

This morning there was parade
Now we're done we have it made!

Driving home at last
Now the MTI terror has past

HOOYAH!!!!!

Hi friends,Well after an exciting week I am driving home. We began the week with AEF. They put us on buses and drove us to a secret compound that looks like you are in Iraq somewhere. We slept in tents. But had decent bathrooms thank goodness. we had pretend exercises running a military field hospital. We had pretend patients who they really had makeup to make their wounds look real. I was one of the people in charge of running the hospital. We had to get ready for bombings and things it was cool. After it was over we raced back to shower and change for the officer's club. When we arrived we were told we made first class status. Meaning we are officially officers. The 2 heads of COT were there and they bought us drinks and hung out with us talking it was really cool. One of my teammates and I hung out just talking. It was awsome. Then we had the dining out last night. My husband drove up for it. It is a formal dinner where you have all these silly rules and if you violate them you go to the Grog bowl where you have a ceremony and have to have a drink either leaded or chunky unleaded. Our flight kidnapped some things from the other flights so 2 flights sent us to the Grog bowl. It was fun. Today we woke up and had graduation parade and then got our certificates. said goodbye to everyone and we are on our way. Next week we will head to our new home!!!Love,Captain J. (that is my what everyone calls me)

1 Week Left To GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

One More Week and we are Done
Wow, we had lots of fun

Tuesday night we're outside
With them black widow spiders on our hide

We will be outside all night and day
and field hospital we will play

Patients, our team members will be
watch out he broke his knee

Broken bones are so much fun
IDMT here we come

Wednesday night at officers club
In BDU's, I need a rub!

Thursday, Oh yeah that's our ball
With the mess dress in the hall

To the grog with a rhyme
To much drink it's a crime!

Will I make it back to my table
I don't know if I'm able

Don't fall over, don't fall down
If you do COT comes back aroun'

Hangover on Friday morning
Give the General a warning

Parade, marching in the sun
Thank G-d it's the last one!!!!

Sound off 1,2,3,4

Howdy All,
This has been a fun weekend. I hung out with some other teams and went to a baseball game. (minor Leagues The Biscuits) This is our last weekend and next week our last week. HOORAY!!! Tuesday night we go sleep out in the woods and have a practice field hospital. It should be fun except for the spiders, snakes, and mosquitoes. Then wednesday we go to the officers club for an orientation in our BDU's which are not supposed to be smelly (And perfectly pressed)from 2 days in the field? (I don't get that one) Thursday night is dining out when we get to wear our "beautiful" mess dress the formal Air Force clothes. (kind of looks like a tuxedo for women and cost $400). This party is supposed to be very interesting. It has all these rules you need to follow and then you are supposed to send ppl to the Grog by a rhyme. At the grog you have more rules to follow while you drink an alcoholic beverage and try not to fall over drunk. Should be interesting.
Friday is graduation, we have a parade and then it is all Over HURRAY!!!!!

Warm regard's,
Kimberly
