Well, Sammie baby graduates tomorrow from the program in San Antonio. I know she's going to miss being the top of her class, but we're all going to be happy to have her home for a couple weeks.

Then, it's off to GERMANY. No kiddin', folks. She has to report to duty on July 13 ... one week before our 20 year high school reunion in Alabama. :( We'll miss her at the reunion, but you know I'll be talkin' about how frickin' awesome she is the entire time!

I know that she and Don were hoping to have a European assignment, but I have to admit I was sad when I found out they'd be so far away. I was quickly set straight by another friend who pointed out to me that Germany's a nice place to be stationed. So I'm happy for Sam to be going somewhere cool. I just want her to be safe FUR-EVER!
