Hi All, hope eveyone had a nice Thanksgiving. My son finally called on Thanksgiving night and it was great to hear his voice. A fellow sailor whose wife is with him invited him over for Thanksgiving dinner and they had a nice time. Went shopping on Friday and had a great time, stood in long lines in Kohls, but it wasn't too bad!

Paula....have a wonderful trip. You are so lucky to be there for the Christmas Party. Can't wait to hear about it.

We heard from our sailor on Thanksgiving Day. We were at his grandparents so he got to talk to them also. Nice to hear from them on a holiday especially.

Hey ladies! Happy Thanksgiving to you all.And thank you for the well wishes. I will be leaving for the airport about 2:30 am so hopefully I will be good and tired and can sleep on the flight. I will try to post updates for you all. I know I will be attending the ship Christmas party so I will see many of your sailors even though I won't knnow who they are! Wish I could pack you all in my suitcase :( ! I will keep you posted if I have internent access.

Happy Thanksgiving to all! One thing I am thankful for is this site. I do not post a lot, but I love to read all of the posts. My son is supposed to call today on skype so I am excited about "seeing" him. Have a wonderful day!

Tam – My son also helped when the ship came in. He’s been there since the 8th and, up until an hour ago when I talked to him on Facebook, has been very unhappy. I’m thrilled to know that he’s finally settling in, getting excited to board the ship on the 30th (he also came from Pensacola) and actually got to go on to get the Master Chief’s luggage! He was so excited!
Natalie – Thanks for the tree info… I wish I knew my son’s address!!! He still doesn’t know it! LOL
Claudia – Cody tells me they had a nice lunch… he even won a prize! My heart feels like it’s getting better each time I talk to him! Our kids are making a new family now…
Paula – Have a wonderful trip! Be safe.
Pam – Thanks for the kind words… after talking to my son tonight, he already sounds better! How old is your son?
Many blessings to all of you for a safe and Happy Thanksgiving!

i got a call from Berta - she is going off the ship with one of her shipmates for Thanksgiving dinner. she sounds good, a little homesick but that's to be expected on Thanksgiving. This time last year she was just starting boot camp.

Paula - I'm so happy for you to be traveling to Japan. Please tell us all about it when you can. I hope to go there some day.
Sue - welcome to the group! I cannot say that my son is in love with Japan because I know he would like to be in the U.S. I think it has a lot to do with their age...the younger they are, the harder it is to adapt and they are so far from home! I'm sure he will be fine once he is settled in.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF YOU!
