Suzie: Congratulations! I'm glad that your DS's winging went off as planned. How very special for him and your father, too.
To all: Have a blessed holiday season. For those of you whose children will be home, enjoy every minute. For the rest, may you at least get a chance to talk over the holidays. My DS is travelling in China right now, but we've had two chances to talk since thy got back from cruise and it makes all the difference in the world.
May 2014 bring you and your families peace, happiness and good health.

Is there anyone who can pick a Marine up from Meridian Naval Airstation on Dec 23rd and get him to the airport? He is trying to get home and I am going up on the 20th and 22nd. typical cab fare from the base to the airport is $500.00 or more (!) can you believe that! Anyway, If you live withing a comfortable driving distance let me know. I could use some help in helping these guys and gals get home for Christmas. I live down in South Alabama close to PNAS
Thanks!

Bake a ton of stuff. Took four days to get it all cooked and baked. Sent out 22 trays of goodies like this. Have just enough for the house for over the Christmas holiday.

Hello all! I've been following your posts; love the pics and congrats on all the good news. Life at work has been crazy. I really need to find a job whose busy season isn't Sept through Nov. :)
We managed a visit with DS and DIL at Thanksgiving. My hubby's family ranch is halfway between here and Kingsville. Had a wonderful time and DS got to relax and de-stress a bit. We will fly to CA to see daughter and her hubby for Christmas and then back home in time for DS and DIL to arrive for New Years. We are enjoying them being close (if 8 hours of drive time is close) but after Kingsville, they will likely be much farther away!
I too am very grateful for you and this place to learn, vent and support each other. I pray that this holiday season brings you joy and contact with your loved ones...may it be in person or by Skype!

Two beautiful ladies! My DS will be moving to Whidbey after the holidays. We are in No. California so for us its wonderful to have him that close. On to the next training for him! To all you lovely Navy4moms..
May your tree be evergreen
May your Christmas be ever glad,
May your loved ones be ever near,
may your joys be everlasting.

Flyboymom....Yes, your words are so true. We are like a big warm quilt filled with love.
Don't forget to watch the Army/Navy game on Sat. Go Navy, Beat Army!
