Cole's Promotion

Cole was selected to be promoted to Chief Warrent Officer 4 (there's only 5) earlier this summer. We had his promotion ceremony on Monday. General Forrester, the commander of the Combat Readiness Center at Fort Rucker, was the one to do it. He was Cole's brigade commander when he was in Iraq the first time. I got to pin him (it's all velcro now though) with his new rank! Here's a picture!

Aviation Museum

My parents came down the other weekend to bring us a desk we bought on ebay and also to pick up some extra furniture we didn't have room for. We went to the Army Aviation Museum here at Fort Rucker. We had a great tour guide and learned a lot. Here's a funny picture of my parents!

Beach Time

Since Cole and I now live so close to the beach, a little less than 2 hours away, we've been spending a lot of time there. We have taken a few day trips down to Panama City and also taken a couple of overnight trips. This picture was take in Mexico Beach which is just west of Panama City. It's really nice, not too crowded with beautiful beaches.

Going Away Party!

I know this is kinda late, but I wanted to thank everyone who attended my going away party in Killeen. I had a great time and got some presents too!! Thank you or everyone that contributed to my gift! I got a little red wagon and a lot of garden supplies! Here's a picture from the party of me and Helen giving me a CRDAMC framed picture.
