As our recruits get furthur into bootcamp I thought that maybe some of the Moms in Division 818 PIR 9/2 would like to get more specific information. I'm brand new at this but thought I'd try and maybe some more knowledgable Mom's will help us.

Good Morning! The SUN is shining here now but it will be raining over the weekend :( YUCK!
pamom: Hahaha well yes you did write a small book this mornin BUT you had lots to share with us! I am a fellow procrastinator my friend...hahaha I may complain about my son "flying by the seat of his pants" sometimes but I do think he gets that from his Momma! LOL...shhhhh! : ) I know you will find a dress but honey YOU ARE the Mom of the Groom so make sure you give yourself plenty of time to find that special dress that you will look fantastic in!!
S has finished all the house painting that needs to be done for now he is such a hard worker & we are thankful for him! He made it to DC safely & will have a fun weekend hangin out with his best buddy!
I hope you all have a wonderful Friday & restful but fun weekend! HUGS!!
Wow!! Sorry bout that... that IS a book!!!!!
Helloooo out there....... come out, come out, wherever you are....
Well it is Friday... yah!! How is everyone??? I am guessing all fine and happy and BUSY!! Well I've got lots to do and a short time to do it in :) But it's all good! This weekend I am going to paint my upstairs bathroom... need to do that before the wedding, which is in ONE MONTH!! Yikes!!!! I did finish all the centerpieces for the tables though, so that's a plus! Did not get a dress yet... ( I know, Kelly... I need to get on that! haha!) I'll find something soon.. promise:) We have had a lot of rain lately, I sure hope and pray that it doesn't rain that Sat.!!! D gets to come home... yah!! He will be home one week and he is bringing his girlfriend. :) Unfortunately he won't get to come home before he deploys in Oct, because of some other training they want him to do... so we were really praying they would approve his leave for the wedding, because after that, it will be well over a year till we see him again. But I am happy and grateful I've been able to see him twice this year. :))
Well enough about me... how is everyone here? Lydia is right it is soooo quiet.
Lydia... how is D doing? And B... how is he... is that his girlfriend in the pics on FB? Cute:)
