Thanks for the updates from our ship and division. I just framed all of the graduation pics this weekend, and wished Nate would have identified all of his shipmates in the division photo. I'm anxiously awaiting the DVD from graduation, and am hoping it's a DVD rather than a VHS tape. I missed so much of graduation by trying to get photos of it. I look online and families have pics of the liberty call, but I have no pics since I was behind the camera....and my sailor was off to get travel orders with barely a hug.....Nonetheless, our sailors are out of BC and embarked on their respective Naval careers....I know we can be very proud of each and every one of them..and I'm proud to say that I am glad to have been on this journey with each of you. It has made it so much easier. Thanks to all of you.

I know that the Thanksgiving Holiday is over, but I am sending my belated wishes. It was weird not having Jeff home, but we talked for almost an hour on Thanksgiving. He is missing everyone a lot. They haven't started actual sub school yet. They have been just hanging out since they left GL. Supposedly they are suppose to start tomorrow, the 30th. But, he heard it may be delayed. I guess A School comes after sub school. It is nice being able to talk with him. His computer finally made it to him so he can "skype" so him and his girlfriend can see each other while they visit. Unfortunately I don't have a camera on my computer so I haven't been to skype yet. Well, again, Happy belated Thanksgiving.... and .....Happy Holiday's!

Happy Thanksgiving to all Sailors, Familes, and Friends of Div 389! Like Sue, I'm coping with long distance relationship, but it isn't as hard as boot camp was. The fact that he'll be home for Christmas makes me so very happy! I'll hug him to death while he is here to catch up, and make up for all the past and future times I wanted or needed a hug!

Hope you all have wonderful Holidays.

Hi shipmates.....I hope all of you are doing well, and getting used to the long distance relationships with your sailors. I know it has been an adjustment for me. But you know what, this site saves me......because I know all of you are going through the same things that I am. Please let's keep in touch. Happy Thanksgiving to my PIR Friday the 13th families......our families looked good at graduation, and I am proud to say that they are serving our country. Funny that I never really gave patriotism a second thought until my son enlisted in the Navy, and now, it is what it is all about.....HooRah, to our Sailors.....

Hello Paula how are you doing? How is your Sailor doing? Did he start A school already and where did he go? Alex stayed in GL and his school postposted so he will be in there for a year unless they hire more instructors. The only positive of the whole situation is that he will be out of harms way being there in GL waiting for school to start. He is still a little homesick and I miss him being home but we have to get used to the idea for this is part of our new LIVES.... I hope you and your family have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY MOST OF ALL YOUR SAILOR AND ALL OUR SAILORS...

Jeffrey is quite happy now that he isn't at boot camp. Is loving his apartment/dorm set up. We have been talking to him often. He doesn't start school until the end of the month, so he is just hanging out and trying to keep busy. He gets to come home the week of New Years. I am so excited. That is great that yours gets to come home for Thanksgiving! Being in contact again with our sailors is so much better and has lifted a huge rock off of my shoulders! When my other son goes this next summer I think I won't be so stressed out about all this. Still worry, but I will have a better idea of what it is all about. I am grateful for all of you and this web site.

paula, I didn't really get to meet anyone at the Ramada. It was like 7:45 before we got to the room, dropped our bags & walked down to the Meet N Greet, but we didn't stay long so we could get ready for the next morning.

That was the best weekend, but it went by WAY too fast!!! I cried for a while after we left & still have my moments, but at least I can talk to him now. He called Wed morning before leaving the airport...they too had someone pay for their breakfast!!! We all got to talk to him for about 45 mins that afternoon when he called to let me know he was there & getting situated. He didn't sound too good though...still REALLY homesick. Last night we talked for a little over an hour before he ran out of mins on his phone card lol. The kids all perked up being able to talk to him & he sounded SO much better. He met some of the guys & found out he will get to come home for Thanksgiving!!! YYYAAAYYYY! I will be driving to SC Wed. morning & then we have to leave Sun. morning to take him back. Glad to hear our other sailors are enjoying being out of BC & in A school! I definately want to stay in touch with everyone even though our boys had to go their seperate ways!
