- Christine, Thank you for my yellow ribbon!! Adam played through his junior year but he couldn't senior year becaue it interfered with JROTC. I just bet Adam knows your son because he said that 945 was their partner band for practice. I think 942 played some jokes on them liking telling them they had to salute the petty officer in the poster next to the door when they entered the practice room. My son loves to kid people so I'm sure he was in on that one!! Also I saw 945 outside the drill hall at graduation marching and they sure looked sharp. And yes the horrid tax season is just around the corner!! Have a great weekend!!

- Christine, I think my son Adam practiced with your son in the band maybe? He played the french horn. I have another son at home too who will be able to start his Eagle hopefully around March. He is trying to finish the 12 weeks on personnel fitness!! thanks for the friend invite. How long will your son be in A school at GL? Mine is in San Antonio for Master At Arms and has about 5 more weeks.

- aww Christine that was so sweet of you to tell me all that! I was already in tears just over my other call home! lol Sept 25 to be exact! lol I am doing great now!!! I've lost all my fears and am now just excited and miss him more than ever, but somehow I like that... I'll want to smother him with hugs more after we leave the base! lol I just can't believe it is SO close. I can't imagine how nervous, excited, proud, anxious the recruits must be feeling. I hear he should go into Battle stations 10/23!!! ahh!

New Group Formed~~ Eagle Scout Moms
While in the N4M chat room today, I noticed a couple of mom's talking about Boy Scouts of America, and found out that the three of us each have an Eagle Scout. I thought it'd be fun to start a Eagle Scout Moms group so I did. If any of you moms, dads, aunties, uncles, grandma's or grandpa's would like to join the group to talk about your son, please join us.
Not only are we proud of our sons call to service, but we are very proud that they have acheived the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scout… Continue

09/25/09 PIR Weekend (Ship 06/Div 945)
Wow, what a weekend! The redeye flight was packed, it was harder to sleep on the plane from Sacramento to Houston because we were so excited about going. The flight from Houston to Milwaukee was good, got a good nap on that flight. Due to construction on the highways, we got lost (Cal says we were just diverted) for about 15 minutes getting out of Milwaukee, but got to Waukegan with no trouble, checked into the hotel early, which was nice, and got in a little nap after settling in.
We met up wi… Continue
