Great looking kids Kathy. You are going to have to change the way you think about the holidays. Just because Paige is not going to be there doesn't mean she would want you or the rest of the family not enjoy Christmas. it will be tough however make the best of it. The ship will try to do for them. It's not home however I think Paige would be upset with you if you changed your normal holiday plans.

Happy Halloween everyone. First holiday with out our loved ones. My son's package hasn't arrived yet. Hopefully soon before the candy corn gets hard :-). When talking to my son, he states not much is happening. He continues to be "bored" and is getting a lot of gym time. I hope everyone on the east coast faired well. My prayers are with you! Have a good Halloween.

hope everyone came thru the storm, here in maine we did not get hit as hard as some other new england states. here is a pic of my back yard during the hurricane. snickerdoodle that is alot of stuff, do they have alot of room to store things because i sent to paige 3 large flat rate boxes stuffed with anything and every thing my parents sent paige a large box and my siblings got together and sent her a large box of the neatest things so thats a grand total of 5 large boxes not to mention the one she hasent recieved yet from about 8 weeks ago. im worried that its all going to be to much for her! what kinda space do they have on the ship??

Hi Moms,
I hope everyone is receiving emails. I get a few a week and love to know that everything is going well. One thing I was reminded of is the fact that their internet may go down and if that happens and we don't hear from our sailors don't worry. It sounds like the last deployment the internet went down for a couple months. I just give updates from home, weather reports etc....I never ask anything that could put any of our Sailors in harms way. Google Alerts and the facebook page for the Ship gives us enough information as we need it.
I know this is tough on all of us. Especially, with the holidays coming. It took my first care package about 6 weeks to arrive to my Sailor...I am mailing two more large size flat rate boxes filled to the top today.
Navy Moms...Stay Strong!!!! Our kids will all be home soon!!!!!
Hugs,
Snickerdoodlemom.....
