alwaysdaddyltlegirl: Zack took his laptop and cell phone on base to school with him. He put all his other stuff (clothes) in the lock-and-go. He will get them later I suppose. He mentioned being in school until October or so. Depends when they actually get to start. I hope she gets her phone! That will make communication easier. My son called Wednesday night but I really haven't heard from him since. Says they can't have their cell phone on them most the day. I'll let you know if I hear anything new. Hope you do the same. :)

What a wonderful weekend it was last weekend. I thought the ceremony was awesome...you could just feel the pride as they all started marching in...what an experience. It was awesome to meet a few of you moms at the meet and greet. I wish you and all our sailors the best of luck moving forward on their next journey as a US SAILOR!!

Exxie - my son kept his calling card just so that he knew that it would be a few days before he would be able to get his phone, etc. They are doing indoc training for the next 5 days (excluding the weekend), so my guess it will be this weekend before you hear from 'the prince'.
We can't wait either to make plans to go to Panama City - and warmer weather!!
It was a great weekend!!

The journey to PIR was amazing! It was fun to meet some N4M's!! My son looked wonderful and happy! Saying goodbye was so hard! Harder than bootcamp. I guess I knew I would see him after bootcamp. Now, who knows. He is in A-school in Great Lakes (FC) until at least November. It really was an amazing journey. Our sailors journies have just started. My prayers are with them all and all of us as we will miss them. I know my sailor walked away with great pride in himself. That was worth it all!

bev: so glad to hear they moved across the way! I knew they were scheduled to move, but have not gotten any confirmation from The Prince. We left his phone and computer at the lock&go, so I guess he has to wait until they get some liberty before he can go pick up his stuff. :/
SOOOO much fun meeting everyone and getting to laugh and sing with both my kids together in the same room last weekend! I'm still riding a little higher in my seat. :D My daughter bought tickets last night to come home in May and we'll take a ride up to Panama City to play again. Can't wait! I guess we've started a new tradition in our family: planning and anticipating the next vacation, over and over and over! LOL!!

I think that the PIR group from 2/11 had a great idea of changing the name to Alumni - who has the permissions to do this -- it is nice to see what everyone is doing and sharing our stories - after all our Sailors are still on a journey!!
My son (Div 805) has moved over to the other side at GL and will be there I think until the end of March at which time he will move to Panama City, Florida for his next journey - he sounded good when I talked with him tonight and glad to be out of the RTC unit --
But I have to say I am glad that I am out of Chicago and the weather -- much nicer here in Colorado!!
