Hi Nancy,
Here is the information I put out on the Colorado Love Box Party. Sure hope you can join us.
It's time for all of us to get together again. We are going to meet Saturday, August 29. I placed a discussion out there a while back, but with summer and busy schedules there weren’t too many responses. With that in mind, I am going to invite all who are interested to my home and we’ll BBQ and pack boxes and just catch up on our Sailors. I don’t know that I have all of the Colorado Moms on my email, so please feel free to pass this along to any on your friends list. As always the more the merrier. My address is 12165 W. 85th Avenue Arvada, CO 80005 303-463-8912 (home) 303-982-0590 (work). Please go to the event page and RSVP if you are coming.

Molly’s Adopt-A-Sailors have adopted the USS CROMMELIN. The USS Crommelin is a frigate and the home to 252 of our sailors. They are based out of Hawaii and are currently on deployment. There are 250 males and 2 females aboard.
And, not only are they happy about us adopting them, they are ecstatic!
They will be half-way through deployment about mid-September, so we are going to help them celebrate with a HAWAIIAN LUAU. Let’s show our Colorado Love.

Check out Molly’s Adopt-A-Sailor site for more details. The discussion link is August 09.

Hope to see lots of your smiling faces 

Nancy --

Welcome!!! I am soo excited to have another mom from Loveland!! This is a great Day!! This site started March 1st and it has grown by leaps and bounds. I joined right when Aaron left for boot camp April 15th. It was my life line for those first 8 weeks. I don't know what I would have done without it. Did you say you saw a TV ad? I work full time as a treatment coordinator in a periodontal office in Loveland and Longmont. Let me know what I can do - what ever questions you have we can find answers for you. How long has Erik been in the Navy, and what is he doing, where is he at? Sorry, lots of questions.

I look forward to chatting with you some more. Have a Great Day!!

Dear Nancy,
That is wonderful, so Erik made the Navy his career!! The other day, I was talking to two women Sailors. One is in the NAvy 29 years and the other 14 years. Both of them couldn't Praise the Navy enough!! They love it so much.

I pray my daughter Kim feels the same when she working with what she was trained for. So far she loves it, but she's new. Kim only finished A School last month. I know she'll be on a ship, she was trained to read the radar.
Let me get going.
Take care and God bless.
