Been a while

It has been a while since I had an actual post. Since I am not working today, I figured it was a good time to end the slump.

Rob's mom and I have gotten involved with the American Defenders (the Nashua, NH baseball team for Military). We are volunteering with them and getting involved with the team/organization to promote our Moms of Marines group. It is awesome!!!

I recommend reaching out to organizations like this if you want inspiration to do more with the military. They are welcoming and always love having home town supporters.

We walked in the Memorial Day parade with them. It was a blast. Here are some images from the day.









We made our own shirts to top it off! We went to Tee Shirt bodega in Nashua to have them printed. They were excellent to help us!! The front is a variation of the Moms of Marines Logo. I was trying to upload the logo, but the colors keep messing up on this site. I don't understand it...I will keep trying.

If anyone is in the Nashua area, there are American Defenders games everyday this weekend! Check em out!

I wish there was a Marine Mom ad...but I just loved this commercial. In honor of mother's day, mothers of military men, and all mothers everywhere, this ad is for you!

Got the call!

Finally heard from Robbie!! After almost three weeks, I got my usual, unusually early phone call at 4:30AM. It was more than I thought I needed. I had been really blue, but I didn't realize that just hearing his voice could help as much as it did. I thought I couldn't settle for anything less than him coming home, but the "Robbie call" has some serious mood altering abilities.

He was excited about the article and WMUR story about him! I was a little worried he would be embarrassed about all the fuss surrounding him.

So now I only have three months (NOT EVEN!) left of this! I hate wishing time away, but I want nothing more than summer to go by quickly.


August here we come!
