Speechless Sunday (almost!): There's no place like HOME!

Speechless Sunday (almost!): There's no place like HOME!

Travelling 1,656 miles on a red-eye flight to Illinois to see our son graduate from Navy Basic Training was quite an exciting adventure for us all! Going from a balmy 80 degrees to 40 something temperatures...invigorating! Harried hiways with vehicles screaming past us...refreshing! Getting to our room in 3+ hours when it should have taken 35 minutes...relieving!

No rest and relaxation for this southern Utah family!

Seeing Sebastian's face through a sea of Navy blue at the graduation ceremony...priceless! We were able to visit for 3 hours and then back to his ship to ready himself for A-School in Pensacola, Florida. We left the following morning and I remember thinking that Dorothy had it so right when she said, "There's no place like HOME!"

Very cool...I still remember seeing my husband (then my fiance) graduate boot camp. It was so many years ago but I still remember it making me cry. So many men in uniform ready to serve and protect.
