Turning Blue Ceremony












Turning Blue Ceremony for Bravo 2-54,  198th Infantry Brigade.

Infantry Blue Cord








Truly one of the great honors of my life, getting to pin the Infantry Blue Cord on my son.  #Honor #Pride  #MySon  #Pvt.SkylerCain

Soldiers Love Their Momma


Never doubt it.

Soldiers Love Their Sister


Cabrera



Our friends, the Cabrera's.

Soliders Love Their Nana


Nana Meets Her Soldiers




Nana adopted soldiers Cabrera and Church to write and encourage during basic.  This was the first time she got to meet them or talk to them.  They were very appreciative of the love and support.  And Skyler appreciated Nana sharing the love with his battle buddies.

Expert Marksman


Graduation Gift






Proud to offer a graduation gift for our new Infantryman.  A Suunto Traverse Tactical Watch.  It's the real deal - this watch does some amazing things.

Candy Cane Wreath






What a fun night with my crafty little elf.  We decided to make a candy cane wreath.  Yes, there were casualties along the way.  Some candy canes were broken and others were eaten.  All-in-all, a great time.  Lady Juliet really didn't help but Isabella wanted to give her photo credit anyway.

Biscuit Time


There's never a bad time for biscuits.  Isabella requested a hot breakfast snack after our craft project.  OK, my me.  Through in a little Hot Tennessee Pride sausage - mmmmm.  Breakfast for dinner.

My Song Bird








The Chapman's Retreat Chorus did an amazing job at their Christmas Concert.  And of course, my little song bird enjoyed every minute of it.
