Award Ceremony

Today at Quad F was the troop award ceremony where Mike received a highly coveted bronze star for his leadership as a Platoon Sgt.  It was very special and I was so glad Mikey and I were able to be there.  It was SO hot!  Even though they had tents set up for family members, it was sweltering.  105 degree heat index, to be exact.  I felt bad for the troops, who had to stand at attention out in the sun, but of course, being good soldiers they held steadfast.



I THINK YOU CAN ALMOST "SEE" THE HEAT...VERY HUMID TODAY


MIKEY WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN.  ANYTHING.
THE OLDER BOYS HAD SCHOOL TODAY


I'M PRETTY SURE HE'S IN THERE SOMEWHERE


CAN WE GO HOME NOW?


NEVERMIND!  THERE'S MY DADDY!

And a job well done, indeed.  Congrats soldiers, we are proud!!
