My thoughts are with all of you! My son is graduating without Mom and Dad so we are sending Grandma and Grandpa :o)
I intend to be at his graduation from A school in November but am going to miss this one. All of you travel safely and have fun. I will be Arizona wishing I was with y'all.
Be safe traveling today ladies!!
I have so much stuff to do before we leave I don't know if I will even be ready to leave by 7am tomorrow like we are planning, so I could never leave a day early! haha. It's about a 7 1/2 hour drive for us, but with a 11 month old (he will be one a week from saturday!!) it will probably take 8 1/2 almost 9 hours to get there. So with the time difference we will hopefully get there around 3! Drive around make sure we know where everything is and how to get there, and then it will be time for the meet-n-greet!
Ahhhhhh I can't wait!!! I am going crazy over here! =]
I'm so anxious today!! Ready for those calls to start coming in!! Gotta make it thru lunch time! Can't wait to see everyone on Friday!
Good Luck to all the remaining SR's completing BS this morning and to all the moms/wives/gfs/and significant others who have been waiting to hear that wonderful phrase "I'm a Sailor now!"
See all of you Friday morning at PIR!! HOOYAH!!
Good Morning all! Yep the wheels are already turning... I m going to go in to work today and ask for vacay time...
Here s to a happy happy day for all!!!!
