Keri,
Congratulations on your son's accomplishment with the Air Force and best of luck to him. Also glad to hear that Shannon made it through the hard part of the ceremony.
Prayers for peace and fun with your family on the rest of the weekend.
At least you can be flexible with activities. I think the stress of just knowing you're in a situation where you can't go hide" is tough. And I know how those military ceremonies are! Especially in the heat of TX. So at leasts that part is over...
We are Texans/Washingtonians. Lived in Corpus area for 6 years.
Now live near Tacoma WA. BUT when we sold our house in Corpus, (actually we lived in Portland, TX), we bought a little "winter home" which is now being rented out.
We have 2 kids in San Antonio, SO don't mess with TEXAS!!!!! Plan is to "open up" the TX house when the third child goes to college (3 years). I'm planning now!
I miss the winters, of course but it is soooo pretty here in WA, in the summer.
Take care of yourself when you get back. Pamper/ spoil yourself for one day at least! And Shannon too. She will deserve it.
