I have only gotten 2 letters from mine about 2 weeks apart. Last I received was just over 2 weeks ago. I get updates from a couple other mothers otherwise I wouldn't know anything at all.

Hi MattsMama et all,
I changed my flight to arrive @ O'Hare @ 3 PM Iish on Thursday.. any idea how long it will take to arrive to the Comfort Inn GL and meet @ Sarge's ? I know they will achieve the Captian's Cup knowing what stellar ladies and gents we have raised!!! Go Ship 02 Div 924!!!!! Look forward to meeting our Navy family!!!

It's about 30-35 miles or so from O'hare to RTC. You may be hitting rush hour so I'd suspect it will take a good hour or so to get there. See you at Sarge's MNG.

Can't wait till you all get your "I'm a Sailor" calls. How exciting!!!
I'm so happy for all of you! You are all heading out to your PIR. Congrats to you and your new SAILORS!!! :)
I'm sure you all saw how hard I tried to get us Performance Divisions some pics from the last 2 graduating classes, (that our SRs had performed at) but I just didn't have much luck. I tried! LOL! I tried!. We all were just hoping for a glimpse of our SRs performing for the previous PIRs.
So...Now it's YOUR turn, I'm here to ask you, (the shoes finally on your feet, LOL!) PLEASE will you share some pics of the Performance Division with us? :) I'll be watching your page round the clock (You've all been here, done that, LOL!) Hoping for a glimpse of my SR performing at your PIR. (He's on the snare drum) Hoping someone has a spare moment to snap a pic and share it.
THANK YOU! Safe travels to all, and LOVE them Sailors!!! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
