She lands in Chicago and will fly out in an hour, then she'll be here with HIM! We are getting ready to leave for Louisville to meet them and bring them home. Life is sweet.
Hey all, I forgot to post this. On December 1, 2008, my husband Brad was promoted to SGM (Sergeant Major), highest enlisted rank in the Army. I am so very proud of him. The photo on his cake is from basic training, 26 years ago.
Our new President! I am renewed in the belief that anything is possible in this great nation of ours. I feel so proud to be a Christian, an American, a military spouse and a military mom.
AMEN!
Thanks for the picture slightclutter photography
I love when the two of them are together. It makes me so happy to see them interact and finish each other's thoughts and sentences.
My son, James B. McDonell, graduated from Basic Training at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri on Thursday. Can you guess which one he is? Yup, that's right - those Irish eyes are smiling. He received honors for outstanding athletic achievement in scoring a perfect 300 on his physical training test. He ran his 2 miles in 11:06. I am so very proud of him!!!
He begins training at Goodfellow Air Force Base in San Angelo, Texas on Monday for firefighter. We had to say goodbye to him this afternoon and drive back home without him. My husband and I are so proud of him and we are so happy that he seems to have found his direction. He is so looking forward to school and all that comes after serving in the Army.
I can hardly stand the waiting - my daughter and my grandson will be here this evening! I have missed them tremendously!
