Formatting Issues

I am having issues with formatting posts on this blog in case you didn't notice from the previous posting. In the screen I type stuff it looks right, and when I preview it before I post it looks right, but then I post it and it looks different. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Weekend of Celebration

Josh and I are very glad to have Gary home again! Josh steals his dad's hat every day when he gets home from the base, so Gary found one that he could keep and he loves to wear it everywhere. He is doing great adjusting to having his dad home again!
He was pretty worn out from all the excitement of his Dad's return and fell asleep playing in the head board of his bed.
He also fell asleep like this after finishing a Popsicle while watching cartoons.
Last weekend Gary didn't have to be at Camp Williams so we went to Richfield to spend the weekend with my mom and dad. Friday night we celebrated Josh's birthday, Saturday night we celebrated my sister Andrea's birthday, and Sunday was Mother's Day. We made Josh a choo-choo train cake and he had a good time blowing out candles. He blew them out several times. Daddy helping Josh open presents.
Grammy Debbie got Josh a new bike. Josh and Gary had fun putting it together. Andrea helping Josh get ready for his first 4-wheeler ride.
Grandpa Glen and Josh on the 4-wheeler. He had a lot of fun with grandpa!
Grandpa Glen put in a new dishwasher for us. Josh gets the tools out and fixes the dishwasher just like grandpa did. He even grunts while he's doing it and it's pretty funny to watch.
I made the mistake of leaving my checkbook sitting out on the desk. Josh picked up the pen and started doing exactly what he sees mom do with the checkbook!

Welcome Home!!!

Gary is home!!! Josh and I picked him up at Camp Williams last night and we are very excited to have him home! It was neat to have the scouts come put flags all over our lawn for Gary. If you'd like to see the news stories on their arrival there are lots to choose from, but you won't see us in any of them! Here are some links:
