brbr3,

Comment by duhhuh58 Ship 10/Div 267 on June 25, 2011 at 8:15pm

brbr3,

when he found out my daughter was on the ship he went down to the hanger bay to say hey.  freaked her out!  everyone called her capt's pet and she told me not to ask for favors like that again.  i told her i didn't ask for anything just mentioned to his wife that she was on there.

Comment by Maryellen on June 25, 2011 at 7:26pm
Janae, I have not but I know someone who did and it made it just fine and still frozen, they freeze them and pack them in dry ice so they get there fresh.
Comment by Maryellen on June 25, 2011 at 7:25pm

Comment by Janae' *My Love is HOME :)* on June 25, 2011 at 8:39am
Duhhuh, I wanted to go to the zoo today too, but I have to work until 1215 and it will take me about 2 and a half hours  to get there... Have fun for me too please!
Comment by duhhuh58 Ship 10/Div 267 on June 24, 2011 at 11:08pm

hey ya'll, yea, i'm posting.  i'm not dead, just feel like it, lol

@Janae' - if i received a box from italy i'd have it ripped open faster than anyone could say "hey!" 

i asked jes to send home cd's with pics on it but she said no, everyone could see the pics together when she gets home.  she also said that they have been told that they aren't supposed to put pics up on facebook due to safety??????

@BRB3 - i know capt miller.  actually, in school we called him chip and he had shoulder length curly blonde hair, lol.  he gradauted the year behind me.

Ya'll, i looked into that www.sassy.org.   it's actually http://besassy.org/  sent an email about adopting a sailor on the bush, waiting to see what they say

@colleen - we're making it a family day at the norfolk zoo.  the frg is having zoo day and since caitlyn was delayed in leaving for Great Lakes the kids, sugar butt and me are going to play with the animals!
