Welcome to the Hyland Family Blog

Hi everyone,

Since Mike has left and I wanted a place to post videos, the Yahoo! website wasn't able to handle the videos so I thought I would jump into the world of blogging. Plus I know many people were having a hard time navigating the Yahoo! website or even joining.

Mike as we speak should be on his way to Iraq, now is the waiting game until he gets there and gets set up and figures out what his coms will be. (For all you non-military folks that means email, phone, etc.) This could take a couple weeks, but I will let you all know as soon as I hear from him. The last time I spoke to him, he was ready to go and start counting down til he could come home again. He was also looking forward to this assignment because it is different from what he normally does.

Fiona and I have been doing really great. We joined the local MOMS Club and it really has been a blessing. We have met some really great Moms and kids and it gets us out of the house a few times a week. Plus it is great because they know all the places to go and things to do, which is really helpful to me since we're new here and don't know what is available...

We went on a crazy shopping trip with Angela and had a blast!! Fiona just loves her - Angela was the one who could get her to stop crying, Mom was old hat.

That is pretty much it for us. I am going to post some video and also get some pictures up too. Feel free to leave us some comments!!
