Boot wedding...

My little bro joined the USMC and it's nice. We're all proud of him, he wants to do something with mechanic in aviation. He always wanted to fix something. I guess they would give him more opportunity than any there are out there. He just went back to San Diego today after his 9 day leave after boot camp. It was a nice graduation.

My son looked up to him so much, he said he wanted to become a Marine as well. I guess we'll see what the future really holds. I am not one to stop him from seeing the benefits of life. I mean his biological father went into the Marines as well a few years back and his grandfather was also in the Marines. Life is life and where the winds takes him I will support him wholeheartedly. 

We went to family day on the 14th of June of 3 months. It was nice to him but so hard to recognize him.  The place was very beautiful and peaceful,  relaxing and a bit overwhelming all at once. Not overwhelming because it truly was but because the exhaustion you felt from their energy and yet the relief to finally be able to see familiar faces.
Then there was his actual graduation day which was the next day, June 15th, which happened to be his 20th birthday! =D
 
Their marching ceremony. 
He was happy to see his gf
My parents and my son super uber happy!! 
 
My sis took time off work and here she is giving out lil bro a huge hug! =D
My lil bros turned 20 this day 06-15-12 <3


That saturday we had a welcome home get together with friends and family. I guess they say I got a little too happy (tipsy) that was fun... laughing I say I'm a happy person already.

Monday we were going to get ready to clean after a couple days of having people over and well my bro R surprises us that he and his gf are getting married. We get ready fast and follow them to the hall of records ... they get hitched...
Man and wife on 06-18-12


Last monday the 25th this lady from the prayer group we go to on fridays came and did a nice prayer for his leaving today. It made me tear up specially when my dad made a prayer and his voiced cracked a bit. Never in my life had I heard my dad's voice crack and shed a tear. But it was truly endearing. Right now my bro is back in San Diego, his wife took him, and he has more training and in a couple of months he's going to be heading out to Florida which is where he'll get his MOS training. I guess his field is a 5 year contract.
Oh and we also found out thursday that he's having another boy. I'm sure my dad was very happy to hear that. But, my dad wasn't happy about how they eloped. oh well.

Many things happening.
