Morning my friends,OK We are booked for the Homewood also. Just need to win the lottery to pay for it LOL I wanted to make sure they had a pool and Hot tub I read where the Graduates really enjoy that. I found the price was very close to a lot of the other places and I want Adam to be pampered as much as I can. Can you tell he is my baby? So look like us Navy moms may just fill that place up? That would be so cool we can have a convention of our own.

Evening All I just got a piece of info from my son who just moved back here (Calif) from Wisconsin There is going to be a huge IMTS Convention in Chicago Sept 10th thru 13th. He said to book soon because its going to be packed !
After searching for hours on here we have found out that the packages are not the best deal as some of you have also told me. Christy are you going to change ? I like the rewards idea at Homewood. Geesh this makes me dizzy.

Hi all , Wellcome to all the new moms I haven't met yet this is so great. I see at lot of you have already made plans to go to PIR. We are praying to be able to go somehow. I have never even been that far from home. It was even Adams first time on a plane. Hi Carol glad you got the info, that means that Josh Tracys son and Jeff are on the same ship. I think they flew out together from here. Of course Adam is 338 so should be by each other from what I have heard. Isn't that something that all 3 from the same area ended up close together.
Adam didn't mention yelling in his form letter but it was only the second day of processing just said everything is going fine. Yes I even recall that whole differant workd being mention by some of the boys too! Well time for work kids are arriving back later Have a good day everyone!

Hi All , Well it looks like we are all at the waiting for a letter stage , Sunday will be the day they have time to write so we should get some letters next week. They get mail mon thru sat I mailed my letter out Friday he might even get it Monday! My son Matt Who was a Marine said that there will be a lot of opportunities for them to write. While they are waiting for their bathroom time and such. Its been a blessing having some insite from him even though he still makes a lot of comments about our squids geesh. Well talk later take care and you all have a blessed day!
