Raising $ for Mo's troop

As most of you already know, Mo is getting deployed in July. He has about 20 guys under him right now and I thought it would be a cool idea to put together some care bags for them to take with them when they deploy. Depending on how much money I can raise, I will be adding things like gum, good socks, Arbonne shaving cream and chapstick, and other misc goodies that they can take with them. Below is a little link that you can click on to a secure sight that you can donate any amount of money to. The money will be added to my paypal account and I will start collecting things to put in these little goody bags for the guys. Also, if you would like to write a soldier a little note that we can throw in a bag that would be great as well, totally up to you though. If you wish to add a note or just send a check please mail it to:

Brianna Boyd
2540 Hass Ln
Oceano, CA 93445

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you all in advance! Also, THANK YOU Aunt Bea for the first donation!!!! So exciting.....we love you and really appreciate it!!!

If you know somebody else that you think might like to help out, please feel free to send them my blog!

I will be posting a picture later on of Mo's platoon!

love you all and thanks!

Here we go again....

Morgan's deployment is slowly creeping up on us. The dates have changed many times, but for now it looks like he is deploying in July. Although we have survived a year deployment already, we have never had the struggle of doing it with kids. I know that it's going to be a lot different this time around. The kids and I are moving home next month. We figure that it will be the best all around for us to move home and be closer to all our friends and family. Gracie can't wait to get back to California. She is such a California-girl....who would have thought she was born in South Carolina?!?! Her excitement for moving back home does make it a little easier though.
Little Ashton John is getting HUGE! We go for his four month check-up on the 14th. I can't wait to see what he weighs now. The boy is big and long. He is getting the cute little rolls all over his body. He is such a happy baby...always smiling and laughing especially at his sissy. I can't wait to watch them grow and play together.


Last month was Ashton's first trip to California. He had a blast meeting a bunch of his relatives for the first time.




It was a very quick trip home and our main reason for going home was to attend our friends wedding in Santa Rosa. It was an awesome wedding and Mo got to the honor of helping with sabre arch at the end of the ceremony. It was a great time.

The latest going on here in Washington...

So, I started this blog up a long time ago, but I never ended up posting on it. My sis put hers up and I decided now is the time to get mine started too. It seems like an easier way to keep family and friends updated since not everyone has a myspace page.
So here we go....

The last few months have been CRAZY!! Between weddings, trips home, baby showers, Arbonne parties, Disneyland, and much more... we have had a very busy last few months. We are now back in Washington until after the baby is born. We will be spending our Holidays here in Washington and we are a little relieved to have a couple months of not traveling. Don't get me wrong though...the last few months have been a blast! I will post some pictures below.

Mo will be home when the baby is delivered and hopefully the date for that will be December 18 or the 19th. My Doctor is letting us pretty much pick when is best for us to induce and he will do it as long as everything looks good and it's safe. We are very excited to get this little guy here. He still does not have a name yet. We are going to wait until we see him and then choose what we think will be the right name depending on what he looks like. We have our favorites picked out and we will just pick one from our list. My parents will be here for Christmas time and to help out with the new addition. We are looking forward to their help as always.

Mo will be home until February and then he is off to training for a full month in California and then after that...we wait to see when he gets deployed back to Iraq. The time frame as of now is middle to late summer for him to be deployed. So that pretty much means Anytime from April on he can be deployed at any given time. We will have to wait and see what comes of that?!

That is all that's going on here. We are on the count down till baby boyd gets here. I will post again soon:)

Love ya,
The Boyd Fam


Nancy and Jake's Wedding: So much fun! It was seriously the most intimate and sweetest wedding that I have ever been to. I loved every minute of it. Those two have waited a long time to tie the knot, and I think that's what made it even more special...this wasn't just something they were doing because it was time....they were excited to be there and the L-O-V-E was in the air that night.







The kids first trip to Disneyland: It was such a blast. They had the best time ever. My parents, The Hacketts, us, Ggma and Nanchee all were there to experience their first trip. It was a lot of fun.







Gracie turns 3 years old: Gracie had a great 3rd Birthday. Part of her gift was the Disneyland trip. The actual day of we had our friends Alana, the Vial Fam, Natalie, and Kevin over to celebrate princess style with Gracie.






Matt and Anna's Wedding: Such a fun and beautiful wedding. We got to visit with lots of old friends and Matt and Anna looked amazing. It was great to see them FINALLY saying "I do"
