GOOD MORNING MY NAVY FAMILY
I got my coffee and down with soar throat can barely talk..UGG I hope this goes away soon..

We might need to hitch a ride with Joanne, Come pick all of us up so we can slide in together..HAHAHA

Darlene is making scarves..You guys are amazing..CAPTIANS CUP HOOYAH>>Our Div 071 has this..

Do they post photos of Div for their Captains Cap ceremony? Have a great day everyone..It sunny skies here in Dallas..Just cold.. :) Everyone stay warm..

oh no! get better Sherry, put a little whiskey in that coffee & curl up with a blanket and a good book.

they don't take pictures at captains cup because it is held during PAO's "off hours". We will all just have to wait to hear how it went from our Sailors. 

oh well, I know they all had a great time, even if they didn't win the captain's cup. I have no doubt they gave them a run for their money!!!! Their ALL winners!
But a big Congrats to 913 & 074 today!

I haven't been on in a few days,. hope I didn't miss anything-- I have been running around like a chicken with their head cut off trying to get everything in order before we get in the car in 4 short days and make our trip to Chicago. I CANNOT believe the day is almost here.. I sent out my husbands last letter in the mail this morning and I felt a little lost.. Sooo Tish I took your amazing suggestion and I'm going to do it. I bought a journal and I'm going to write to him in it everyday and give it to him at the airport for the plane ride. I got a tattoo yesterday of my husbands name, which I swore I would never do and I'm not the type of person to go against my beliefs so I'm feeling slightly crazy, but it will be a complete surprise to him and after all the fear of me leaving him while he was there (which I have NO idea why he would be so deathly afraid of me leaving, apparently alot of guys were getting "dear john letters") maybe it will give him a sense of security in how much he truely means to me because he knows how against it I am LOL. Now my days are pretty much filled up until the day I leave, so it should pass so fast,. I hope I don't forget anything. Checklists are being made and double checked! Can't wait to meet you all =)

HELLO MRS REYNOLDS>>

WOW cant belive you got a tattoo..Now you gotta send us a pic of that..That is ageat idea about the journal..I been writing to Kara and Iw ill give that to her for her flight as well..It pretty kool how m uch I told her how I know you on here..SHe said.>MOM that is pretty awesome..LOL>>Now I am crying talking to you about our kids..I promised I wouldnt cry til I see her..Thankyou guys so much for being here for me..

Cause of you I got through this with my family as well..They are missing her very much..

How long have you neen married ,,, Hope all of you are having safe trips up to Chicago..Stay warm..

 

My husband and I went to preschool together =). I have pictures of us together on the playground when we were 4! The weird thing is I didn't discover the pictures until I got older and we were dating when we were 13. We didn't go to elementary school together but met again in middle school. Dated off and on from ages 13 to 15 and then our senior year we got back together we were 17 and have never been apart since. We have been together a little over 5 years and married almost 4. We have a 4 and a half year old daughter. This website has helped me SO much. I told Tim today that I felt bad Mirandas mom never found out about it (his buddy there) because it has been so helpful to me. I told him I don't know what I would have done without it. Tish has been great, seeing as this is her life! I love the Journal idea =) Even though I spoke to him about everything on the phone today, I still plan on writing even if it's just repeated stuff lol. I'll have to get a picture. I still feel like a crazy lady! LOL He knows I'm against name tattoo's, so I hope he appreciates it 

Hello everyone. Brrrr its chilly today at 20 degrees with a windchill. That feels like 2 degrees & windy blowing snow. A sled is a good way to travel today in areas here. Ha. Too bad about 071 not getting the win bleh!
I hope it was close. I wonder what its going to be like next weekend. I hope I don't cry!! I don't want to blubber all over my sons uniform.
Chelsi....I have my boys tattooed on my thigh. I waited until I was almost 40 to get it but I love it. Too bad we never found Miranda family on here. I've done a shout out a few times to see if they were here. The same with the facebook page

Both Tim and I have Rylee tattood on us,. I have her newborn footprints on my foot, and his whole side has her name down it. I don't know what we are going to do if we have anymore kids! LOL I swore i'd never get anymore tattoos because it hurt SO freakin bad on my foot, but this one didn't hurt at all, I keep forgetting it is there. Big decision! It's permanent and i'm not nieve to know that things do happen, god forbid anything bad would happen to us. If that day ever did come its small enough to cover. I hope the weather warms up before we go to Chicago =) Hope everyone get's there safe!

Got my Ribbons Done =) Burnt my finger a couple of times, but it's all good.
 

THOSE ARE SOOO GOOD>>>Way to go MOM>.

Ok, so ribbions are blue and scarves are yellow. Is that is how it is going? Can ribbions be yellow also? I got two calls yesterday from my sailor. He has had pneumonia and is going back to active duty today. Last week when he called he was so sick, but had not gone to sick call due to battle stations and wanting to call. I'm so relieved he is feeling better. Said he was going to Taco Bell to eat and he called it real food...LOL!! Can,t wait to see everyone there. So proud of our division.

SHANNAN is on the phone. Get ready for a call !!!!!!
