A few firsts for me...

Hello everyone and happy Memorial Day! I hope it finds you all well and know that my thoughts are with those families that have paid the ultimate sacrifice. God bless you and keep you strong! NSDQ!

Our week of way too much stuff was this past week which includes, softball tournament, two socials, round table with the families of our fallen, memorial, building dedications, awards ceremony's, formal, golf and picnic.. no kidding.. I didn't do all but did try to attend as much as one can with a 2 year old and a 6 month old... About my subject line.. that would be regarding the formal. I had a few first to chat about.
1. First time ever I have seen a baby *maybe 9 months old* at a military formal ...
2. First time ever I have seen a person in jeans at a military formal (both 1 and 2 were sitting at the same table yet not the same person)
3. First time to meet a celebrity.. like up close and personal.
Last but not least,
4. First time John has ever seen me drunk... yes, Christy you miss a good one this year

I HAD A BLAST at the formal this year. I mean really tied one on! I have no clue what got into me but I decided to drink grog and for those of you that know what grog is you understand... For those of you that don't know what grog is... it is what it sounds like it is.. hangover pain... All I have to say it thank God mom was here or John would not have been playing golf the next day. It really took me close to two days to recover. Yes, I had a blast...

Here are a few photos from the big night.
John, Gary Sinese and me...


Two of the three chica's at the prom.. *missing Christy here* I need to learn how to edit and just add the missing chica... We joked that we were totally opposites with our dress, she is a classic Audrey Hepburn look and me in my abstract modern look... see, Christy you would have balanced us and made us whole again
