Happy Birthday to my son Mike

Mike is in the center

The only cake Mike likes is cheesecake

I want to wish my son Mike a very Happy 20th Birthday. Mike is a MP in the Army in South Korea. His birthday is tomorrow but it's 14 hrs ahead over there so that makes it just after midnight the 27th his time. Hope you have a great birthday Mike. Love you, Dad

Congratulations Cindy

My daughter FC3 Cindy called tonight, she was nominated for Junior Sailor of the quarter for Combat Systems on the USS Abraham Lincoln. Congratulations Cindy and great job on the nomination. I'm so proud of you. :)

The first day of Spring?

Yesterday it was 70 degrees here and today we have snow, go figure. So far we have 8-9 inches outside, and they are calling for 12-15 inches of the white stuff. Oh well.... So much for the Global Warming crap.

I'm Back

Cindy is third from the left.

Good morning everyone. My daughter FC3 Cindy said that I should start updating my Blog again. She can read it on her Ship the USS Abraham Lincoln but can't access Facebook while out at sea. I have been busy since last writing here. Cindy is doing well and her ship is back in port for the moment. Cindy won an Ipod in a bingo game on the ship. She took her test for 2nd class last week and I am sure that she did well. I am so proud of her. :)

My son PV2 Mike graduated from AIT Military Police School at Fort Leonard Wood , MO last month and is now in South Korea with the 557th MP CO. Mike is doing well and likes it there. I talk to Mike often online and by phone, last night I was able to help him with a Computer problem using Logmein.

I am so glad I was able to see Mikes graduation. It was nice that it was only a few hundred miles away from our home. I didn't get to see Cindy's and John's from Navy Boot Camp in 2007. They graduated a few months apart with Cindy being the first one of my kids to go into the service.

My son OS2 John is still with the USS Doyle in Mayport, FL and is doing well. He has been going out allot since getting a car a few months ago. John will be going to a school in Virginia for his job in the Navy in a few months.

As for me and my wife Vicki we are still here and alive. My wife Vicki has MS and SLE and has not bounced back after after being in the Hospital last September. Vicki has a great attitude and is doing her best to stay strong. That's about all for know. Hope everyone has a great week.
