OH MY! Poor Jason. Hopefully they sent him away the first time so they could try and determine how serious the injury was. (I'm sure they get some that are trying to get out of work.) I "feel" for him (and you). Poor guy! I would encourage him to ...

Happy Happy Birthday to Jason Pat! Let him know that we are all thinking of him. 20 seems like such a long time ago (well I guess it was) ha ha! Anyway, I hope he (and you) had a good day.

Hi Celeste, i am sorry your trip got canceled, but it usually works out for a reason. I would like to meet you if you do get to houston. wow those are great pictures. Our air show is schedualed for Oct. 31 and Nov. 1. I am not sure who is featured this year, I think the Canadian Snowbirds were last year. They are so pretty in the sky. We work with the ROTC units booth, and have done so for the past nearly 10 years. It is hard work, but it benifits the kids unit. Havent heard from my son in the last few days, i guess he has been busy. I am glad the trip got cancelled, he will be home for Christmas at least. Dont know about next year tho. My folks are planning on coming down also to see the new baby and i want to get a 4 generation picture, if i could only get my other daughter here too. If they get leave and can afford it, they are planning on going to Minn. to see his folks. I thought about next year, but then Michael will be gone so i cant win. Hope you are doing great, and maybe we will get that coffee sometime.

Thank you for the photos of Friends and Family Day! My brother is currently on the Truman and my 17 year old daughter was there that day. She is currently in Great Lakes Ship 06 Div 947.

Great photo of the jets, especially the refueling. My pics of the jets are nothing like these. You must have a great camera. Good photo of the jets being stopped with the arresting gear (that's what my son was doing during the air show--his job.) Handsome sailor you have there!

This is great! I wish that I had this 3 years ago when my son was going through bootcamp. I was a wreck!!!
My Son is on the USS Klakring. He has been gone for almost 6 months now.

Hi Celeste, Thanks for requesting to be in my "Friends". You are in La. too?
At 6:56pm on June 16, 2009, Pamela Henry said…
I dont have a clue what OS is, but from what i understood is that everyone does kp duty. My daughter is on the Leyte Gulf and she had to do it too. for 90 days. She is haveing her wedding ceremony the end of july. Michael's duty should be over this week and i know he is going to be so happy. I know that eveyone has to do somthings that they dont understand why, but its all part of their training and they do learn something from it wether they realize it or not. Let me know if you are getting over this way the end of july and maybe we can get coffee, would like that. i work m - f, 5 am to 2pm at lowes. so maybe after i get off work? sounds good.

Hi Celeste, this is Pam, i am from Houston, and my son is also on the HS Truman. He is in FC and is finishing his last couple of weeks in galley duty. He has been on board for almost 6 months now, in for 2 yrs. lots of school. Glad to hear from you, enjoy your trip to Va, wish i could do the same, maybe next year.

Celeste, glad to see you are in Baton Rouge. So you are used to the military life with family members that have been in. My son is a military brat, his dad retired with 25 years in the Coast Guard, little different when are kids are in, huh? My son has been in the Navy now for 10 years, just signed up last year for more years. I figure he is probably career navy now. He is stationed in the states for about 3 years and then most likely back on a ship. Good to hear from you. Steph

Just thought of something, we had to wait for Paul to get off work on Friday. There is a Base Tour.....If we had known we would have done that instead of farting around. They have a gift shop there too... :) Next time we will do the tour .So if you do it please post what you saw and how it was. Thanks. And have a ball. Wear your sneekers. No open toe shoes on the ship.

Hi Celeste,
Sorry It has taken time to say hello. I am new to all of this and I am just finding my way. I see your son graduated from A school. Does that mean he is flying now? My son is an IT guy. He loves those computers. My hubby has family in Louisiana not too far from you. Have you spoke with your son lately? I did again last night. He didn't sound too good. He says he's tired but over all he likes it. Thank God for that! Anyway just wanted to say hi and hope you have a great day

HI celeste,
I'm sorry you couldn't make the lunch with the other moms! We'll have to plan a day to meet- that would be great. We had a wonderful lunch - it was so nice to meet other moms and talk about our sailors! Things have been pretty quiet with the group lately- I guess everyone is busy. Maybe we could meet in Henderson or somewhere in between where you are and I'm in Youngsville. Take care!

Celeste, we did NOT meet in Lake Charles on Saturday. A couple of mom's meet in Lafayette. The Lafayette mom's sent out the two post below that Meloney personally invited you on March 24th and on March 31st. I did not get to go because we had rehersal to sing at Passover on Sunday. I am leaving for Alaska this weekend to meet my first grandchild so I won't have another one in Lake Charles until May or June. But I created a discussion for each city so people that live in a city can just meet for lunch on their own. Suzanne sent an invitation to all members. I am not sure how you missed it or the comments below. I didn't organise this event, but I think they tried to leave messages on each persons page. I get an email when people leave messages on my page or groups. If you don't check your settings (under emails) that will alert you and also in Louisiana mom's that you check follow
