Lackland AFB

Well, we're finally in our house now (pictures to come later). I just thought I'd share some pics from our stay at the wonderful Lackland TLF. Okay, so I'm being a little sarcastic there. Lackland has about the worst TLF we've ever seen. We didn't take actual pics of our housing facilities b/c it was such a dump. The worst experiences there were finding cockroaches in our towels when we first checked in and then, the worst, going to do laundry and finding poo in every washing machine - except for the last one we looked in. I wouldn't have done a load of laundry because of that but we desperately needed some clean clothes. I don't know if they just don't do a good job of cleaning or if Avery and I are allergic to something because we both broke out in rashes. I felt bad for Avery :
It was a rough week and a half. There was only one bedroom so we were all crammed in that one room to sleep. Luckily, we brought our pack n play and there was also one already in the room - so we set one up in the bedroom and living area. Every night Avery would wake up and see me asleep right next to her so she'd want me to get her. That's when I'd carry her out to the other pack n play. We didn't figure out this trick until about day 5 though.

Well, on to the best part.....the pictures! These are just a few from our outings while staying in TLF.

Lots of visits to different parks
I liked that a lot of the parks had these cool canopies





we went on a little hike one day - this is the sign we saw as we were leaving

poo in all the washing machines?? That is horrible!! I thought our TLF was bad here, but at least we did not encounter that- or cockroaches!! At least you could fit a pack in play in your room... our barely fit the bed in it!! Glad you are in your house. HOpe you are loving it!
