Hi Alexandra- My son is in the same div/ship. I didn't get a call Satuday but I did get to see him lookign down at me frotm eh jumbotron at the Boston Bruins game as I rode the zamboni Saturday. Long story, I'll try to post a blog about the whole wonderful NAVYformoms.com weekend today. I am on pins and needles waiting for that battlestations phone call. Have you heard anything? We are driving out to GL's from Boston, leaving tomorrow. Can't wait to see him. We are staying at the Courtyard as well and should be in on Thursday, look for us. I will wear my NAVYformosm.com jacket that I got at the parade in Boston Sunday. I look forward to meeting you.

Carolyn

We are staying at the Ramada Inn on N. Green Bay Rd. in Waukegan. Shuttle's are great ,we are driving ourselves, since my Mom has some health issues. But congrats to you & your son!
I hear battlestations are Weds., they are woken @ 6 am and do not go to bed until Thurs at 8...At least that is what my darling just told me Sat. One of her liberty requests was a nap...LOL!!
It has been both long & short , you're right.
Good luck to you & your family. Enjoy the day & hope to run into you!!

I thought my son already went thru his final test, but I could be wrong. I truly hope he gets to call me as he said he could. We didn't get to talk much so I have no idea what he is doing after grad. But he sounded so tired last time I talked to him.
You can find me I will be the one in a big purple coat that looks like an indian blanket, being from Texas I know I will be cold.

See ya there
Alexandra H.

Alexandra,
Purple, great my favorite color, it will catch my eye in a heartbeat! I will be wearing purple of some shade, and have red hair, so I'll look for you & you can look for me.
I am sure your son was tired, when I talked to my daughter she said people just fall alseep where ever. At lunch, in school, in the bathroom. I feel for them....they work their butts off!! The time is dragging....yesterday felt like 4 days...LOL!! Can't wait to get there!!! Hope to find you Alexandra.
