When we went to visit our daughter in July I was suprised at how far away things were. There was a lot to see in DC and there is a lot to check out around the base. We are from a small town in Montana where there is really not a lot to do, so I real…

Shelly, thanks for the suggestions. Daniel is also an MA - not sure of the initials after - ha!) We are going to stay in DC Thurs night after he picks me up at the airport and spend Fri. there, hoping to see a lot, and then back to the base and staying at the Navy Lodge Fri night and Sat. night. I really like the idea of seeing the changing of the guard. I know Daniel has been there, but I would like him to see things he didn't before. I'm so proud of Daniel as I'm sure you are Britt. Daniel is in Pax River for three years. And Britt? Thanks again for the info. Take care

Hi Shelly,
Alisha PIR's on April 3rd, I am really looking forward to seeing her. It has been a long road, but she is hanging tough. She is still the AROC, and is trying for honors, she will get to perform at graduation with another division playing the trumpet, band class did pay off. 13 days left!!!!!

Hey Shelly,
My son is Infantry. He returned home from his third tour in Iraq, this past July and leaves this coming November for either Iraq or Afghanistan. In March of 2004 he was the Montana Soldier on the front of Time Magazine. Tillie enlisted in the Navy in April of 2008 graduates High School in two months. She will be a Gunners Mate! Soon as I get the go ahead from Cody, I'll post some photo's of the kids on here. Two tours ago, the soldiers weren't supposed to have any pics. on the internet, or use their last names, not for sure if that policy is still in place, so have to get permission from Cody, who has been in since 1999. Sorry, not allowed to print where he is stationed. Safety for the kids!! My parents were both raised and graduated from Sweet Grass County High School. Small world! Hang in there Army/Navy Mom...lol...Hooah and Aye Aye

Hi Shelly,
I heard from Alisha today, she must be doing good if she already got a phone call, she sounded tired and said that it was hard, but was really excited about making the 900 division. She is a tough Montana girl. I spoke with her recruiter today and he warned me that he was talking to my son. If he goes I'll only have one left at home. But I don't think its a bad idea.

Hi Shelly
sorry it has taken me awhile to write back to you. Aaron has been out at sea for over 90 days. He is actually now on his way back to bahrain so we will see how long he gets to be there before they ship him out again. I know on his facebook he had a comment where he said he couldn't wait to see trees and grass again. lol I hope your kids are doing well. I can't even imagine having two kids serving but that is so awesome. my thoughts and prayers are with them.

I will pray that your son remains safe in Iraq.
Cody will have A school in Meridian MS and Jesse will has A school in San Diego than I really don't know where they are going.

Hi Shelly. Good to hear from. My son seems to be doing well on the ship. He is looking forward to get back from deployment. He is also set to come home for Christmas. I am looking forward to seeing him. How is Brittany doing so far? Does she like MD? I bet you are proud of both your kids! I would be! Hope all is well with you and your family. Talk to you soon
