INcase I don't get back on-line today - y'all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Debbie - been catching glimpses of my man-cub here and there - LOL! Seems like when he is home everyone wants a little piece of his time and it's go, go, go for him! I've been making sure to cook his favorites so I at least see him for as long as it takes to eat dinner! He is probably looking forward to heading to Naples just to get back to a regular schedule! :0)

Stephen took a drivers test out in Naples and got a new license so I don't think you have to worry about that. Stephen did not get money back for his pass port but I do not think he asked. LOL Carrie just enjoy your time with your daughter, ok!
Hey Robin you sure have seen a lot, those were great pictures.
Hi Sharon how are you doing?

Carrie - Devin asked to have his passport expedited and it was delivered to our house within 3 weeks, it came the week before he came home! They told him to just have it delivered to your parents and they can forward it to you if need be. I did not know about the international drivers license though - we will have to get to AAA in the next week or so and take care of that! I'm cheating, taking notes as your daughter is heading over there a few weeks before my son :0) We, my husband and I put in our applications but I didn't ask put a rush on them, we don't plan on a trip over there until later in 2010, but you just never know and I felt safer having one when my son is overseas.
Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

Robin I went to your page to see your pictures, is that your daughter? She is beautiful. I like your picture, she was a cuties when she was a little girl. You have a nice looking family. Some of those pictures are they from Italy?

Oh Robin sounds like fun, I am glad for you that you get to see your daughter. Enjoy! We are going to my mother-in-laws, which will be fine. I will just bring a few things. My daughter is in from school so that is nice, and I work Monday and Tuesday and then I am off the rest of the week, I can't wait. How long will you be in Mayport?

Robin they did not help Stephen get a passport or pay for it and he waited to long to apply so it came after her left.

Carrie you do need to get her a passport. If she travel to different parts of the world they do not want her to us her military ID. We even have trouble in the airport here they wanted his passport, which we were waiting for, we mailed it to him because the Navy told him to use his military ID at the airport, the girl we had was dummy she had to call someover to help and they said yes that was find with the military ID. We got his passport at the village hall and Paul and I went to the Post Office to get ours. Hum! I will tell Stephen she has not gotten any e-mails from him. Stephen said that is not a fun way to travel the way Ashley is going to Naples, don't tell her that ok! LOL Tell Ashley if she has time to send Stephen a e-mail, I know he has been so busy I bearly have talked with him.
Hey Jill, how are you? How is your sailor doing, I need some updating on him!
Hey Robin, are you having a nice weekend!
-
-
You too are so funny trying to find it on google map! When I go I will send you some pictures if you are good! LOL

The base is on the airport. LOL They share it with the regular flights. Hey Carrie, Stephen said he has sent some e-mails to Amber to you know if she got them?
