Yes, we just got back from here! This is Parris Island, South Carolina....it's a lot of fun. lol Okay, maybe I'm not telling the truth. It actually looks like a prison surrounded by swamp. It's a lot of fun. :) This is where my "adopted" daughter spent 3 months; running, sweating, humping, eating, sleeping, showering with 50 other girls (ewwww), running some more, crying, yelling, oh and running some more. But she had a goal...and she reached that goal on March 27, 2009. She became one of the Few, one of the Proud....a United States Marine. We are so proud of her, she was ranked number 11 out of 88 girls in two platoons (see, I got the number right, Sara!) and was squad leader the entire time of bootcamp. Which is not an easy feet! So yes, we are so proud to have another Marine as part of our family. We love you, Sara!!!

Sara and Jonny.............Jonny was born wanting to be a Marine. He thinks he's ready to join now.

PFC, Cole, Sara Fay....... :)

Love this one!

Sara and her wonderful and proud parents..............we have to share her. :)

Jonny.......just gotta love him. :)

He carried this pack for two blocks. :)

Yes, female DI's are this scary......um, glad I never joined. I wouldn't have made it through the first week. :) But, that's how I roll.
