Medical Board Update

Okay so we are done with the first step of the medical board process, the MEB! On Friday we got word that Jordan failed to meet medical retention standards, which was expected. We didn't think this was going to be finished until late May so we are ahead of schedule! The next step is the PEB (physical evaluation board) and this should be done in 2-3 months. Things are moving along which we are very happy about.

It's called recoil

This will make you laugh!

Deployments, etc.

I know I have not posted anything in a while, but not much is going on out here in Alabama for us at the moment. I did want to post an update on some friends and family who are about to deploy. Doug Jones (2nd picture) is leaving April 30th. Jimmy, Jordan's cousin's husband leaves next month. Also, we met a couple when we first moved to Ft. Benning, Amy and Tyler Adams. They have become one of our best couple friends, and we have kept in touch with them (they moved to Ft. Campbell, TN). Tyler is set to deploy late this summer. Please keep them in your prayers.

Happy Easter

HAPPY EASTER!!!!

Daddy Cleat

Here's a toast to Daddy Cleat! Enjoying a nice, cold Miller High Life!

Cooper

When my parents were taking me to the airport a few weeks ago, we let Cooper ride with us. He freaked out completely! We think he saw my luggage and thought he was headed to Tooth Acres (where he gets boarded when my parents go on vacation). So the first picture he crawled down on the floorboard behind the drivers seat and stayed there, shaking, all the way to the airport. My parents said on the way back after dropping me off he climbed up front and got on the floorboard by my mom's legs (2nd pic). So I'm sure he was really happy when he got back home safely!!

Natalie's Bridal Shower

I got to go home the week before last to visit my parents. I also went to my friend Natalie's bridal shower (she is the one in the black and white dress in both pictures). It was a great shower, and it was really nice to see some friends. Natalie is getting married July 17th so it will be here before we know it! I have known her since I started playing soccer in kindergarten. We played on at least one team together from kindergarten until our senior year of high school! So I'd say we know each other pretty well!
