"Family" Celebrations!

Yvonne and I "adopt" the young servicemen and women who come into our home. We tell them all that they are guests only once. If they decide to come back over after the first time we consider them part of our family. We have a lot of "sons" and "daughters"! And as the years go by, we are getting more and more grandchildren.

So, like with all good families, there are often rights of passage that take place in the lives of our children. Weddings and the birth of babies are two of the most notable. But graduations and promotions also fall in that category.

Last week Yvonne and I had the pleasure of hosting SSG Jeremy Morrison and his family, who came to attend Jeremy's graduation from the Advanced Leaders Course at the Army School of Music.

Wednesday evening we attended an Army School of Music graduation concert. The Army basic course students were graduating and performing. That's the first Army School of Music graduation I've been to in several years. It was very impressive!

OK everybody, look this way!

Then on Thursday morning we all attended Jeremy's graduation from the advanced course. It was a fun couple of days.
