I'm planning on being there and meeting everyone!!! Thanks!
Oh geeze, Darsete I thought you meant June 13th! Silly me! I CAN do July 13th, unless I'm helping my mom move!
Darsete - I'm open for 7/13.....
Glad you got to visit with your sailor and family - hope you had a nice time!
Hello Darsete! I would love to meet everyone but unfortunately this darned day job gets in the way of my fun!! I lunch is in Rancho somewhere I could probably swing it.
He is in Groton for sub school. He called last night-so good to hear from him and know that I can at least text him once in a while!
mrsb - so glad you had a good time at PIR. Where is your son going to be for school?
B'snukemom, it was absolutely amazing!!! My heart about stopped when the doors opened and they started marching in. Of course I tried to find my son in his division but they all look alike and I don't see well far away. He found us though and came trotting up the bleachers, almost knocked me over!! I got in all the hugs I could, even a kiss on his cheek. Anytime we walked around I held on to his "left" arm in a dignified way, even though I just wanted to hug him all the time. What a change in him, so confident, stands so straight and tall. It was just truly amazing. Wouldn't have missed it for the world!
Hi everyone - and welcome to all the new mom's!
mrsb - how did PIR go? I'm sure you had an amazing time and I hope you got in lots of hugs! Pretty cool when the big doors open up and they all march in!
JJ4Navy - your turn this week for PIR! How exciting for you - make sure to get lots of hugs too!
CBCMom - I can't make the Blue Star meeting tonight but I'm going to check it out and maybe I can make the next meeting. I would like to get involved in that.
My youngest and I did our trip to Portland to look at the college. I don't think he will be transferring after all.....We are going to make it work at the University of Redlands one way or another :) At least he will still be close to home!!
darsete - any dates yet for our next get together?
Hope everyone is doing well - looking forward to our next get together.
