my family.

Christmas time is here...

the boy!!!

we were on our way to bootcamp on dec 7th.  and the f-22s flew over in the missing man formation.  and we pulled to the side of the neighborhood to watch the ship and sub pass by the arizona.  and remembered.  how it might have felt 71 years ago to wake up to bombings.  and felt so thankful for the freedom we currently have.  to be watching and having my husband next to me.  

however, today is my sissy's birthday.  and i am wishing i could be with her.  she just had a beautiful baby girl.  and i am dying to hold her!  but, i have to wait six weeks...  and be patient!  so until then... happy birthday sissy!
