Time with Family; Arrival at Fort Benning

We had a good week visiting with Randy's sister, Missy and her kids, MacKenzie & Patrick. We were able to spend last weekend together as well as a couple of nights during this week. MacKenzie had a band concert at her high school and we attended that. Last night we ended our week at their home, having dinner. Patrick also taught his uncle how to play the Wii game system. That is one cool system; interactive sports. Amazing. I told Randy he'd be sore today after playing golf, baseball and bowling in one night! :) It's always hard to leave family to go back on the road, but we were excited because our next stop was to Fort Benning to see Kevin! Here's a picture of Missy and the kids.

We arrived at Fort Benning early this afternoon. Their campground is rather nice. After dinner we had several deer show up in the field just opposite our site. They seemed very much at home. It was great. Blackie even got off the couch to watch them!

Tomorrow is the day! We have a briefing at 10am and Kevin's company is to be in formation at 11am. I can't wait to see my Soldier!!! We'll have lots of pictures to share later this weekend.

Until the next time . . .
