Sally, I just sent you my facebook name. Look me up when you can. Once we are "friends" I can share the pictures with you. How cool is that? If anyone else is on facebook, let me know so that if Aaron sends pictures I can share them with you.

Deborah, I am not sure if you pay extra for the High Speed Internet, will solve the problem they are all experiencing. It's just an extremly poor connection where they are at this time. Hopfully, the next place will be a better one.I'll let you all know how our connection goes. It's either going to be tonight or tomorrow.

Sally, do you have facebook? I don't think I can send it from there to here.

JJ called to Skype with me on Wednesday morning. Unfortunately, we didn't have a good connection so I briefly saw a pic of him and heard him sort of. He was really tired and didn't want to mess with technology so we said good bye so he could go to bed. It was exciting to do skype for the first time. I might have to pay extra to get the faster internet speed. I am glad you are getting to hear from your sons!

Yes, the pic was wonderful. I looked at the date it was posted. It was last September! Still, I love it. Thanks for the address. It was four am in Japan when Aaron called. He had to sleep to get ready for work. He sounded really tired. He said they had a great time looking around. They even went dancing! Aaron loves to dance. He wants me to send some of his favorite candy.

A picture Colleen? I bet that just melted your heart. Christopher called me real quick this morning as I was getting ready for work. He has been extremly busy in his department. He hasn't had any free time yet. His day off is suppose to be Sunday as long as there are no problems. We have scheduled a Skype with the whole family Sunday evening. Hopefully it will work out for him, as we are all anxiously awaiting to see him!!!!

What is the FPO address? Susan, could you please send it via my email? Thanks.

I just finished talking with Aaron. It was great to hear his voice. He posted a picture on his facebook page of him and the guys on the outside of the sub. I love it!

Hi Everyone, Christopher left us a message today. No one was home at the time of his call. (Boo Hoo)He said we probably won't hear back from him until Sunday.Not to sure if it's work related, or if he is getting a chance to explore the country.I have been thinking about the Mail Drop. I think I am just going to mail some things directly to him using the FPO mailing address. It sounds like Brandi had good luck with the packages she sent to Zackary,, and when I ordered the uniforms for Christopher last month, he told me on Tuesday, they were delivered directly to his bunk the first day they pulled into this Port.So I was very happy to hear that.It sounds like everything was delivered to all the sailors the first day they pulled in.
