Phase Ten

So it appears as if I have joined some sort of posse.
It is kinda weird being the only brother with this thing but you all know me. I love to be the first to try ANYTHING!
It has been a really busy couple of days getting ready to go into the field for a week but with all the MAN WORK to be done it has flown and suddenly its friday.
It has become a ritual to go to my sergeants(Berto) house and play phase ten with him, his wife and a couple of the guys. It is lots of fun and it brings back some great family memories. He has a two year old son who makes me laugh like crazy. He also makes me miss Brendan and Jeremy lke crazy. It is good to be able to throw a kid around again.
Anyway I love my Marine Corps and I am so excited for Jared to join my "gun club."
The End or something like it.

Yippee! Welcome to the blog phenomenon. I look forward to reading about all your "Man Work."

Cami Sue said...

YEAH! Welcome to our blog club. Can you imagine the rest of the boys joining in and all of us reading what is going on in all of our lives? We would all be so connected.

I still love the phone calls though. It's great to hear what you are doing (Man work - silly) but it's also great to hear you voice.

Looking forward to future posts.

P.S. Last night Ben was telling stories and one started out "Three of us Navy guys walked into a bar". I started laughing and said "it sounds like a Marine joke." He wasn't too impressed. Love you!

I love the whole blog thing but still want regular phone calls and updates. Dad says you forgot to mention all your allergies that make you tear up all the time j/k especially when mentioning those two little boys.

WooHoo! Welcome aboard. This will make the time between phone calls not seem so long! It is becoming a nightly family thing to read everyone's blogs - glad you joined in!

Johnny! You joined us! Do you think they have meetings for people addicted to blogs? I swear I wake up every morning and one of my first thoughts is "I wonder if anyone has blogged yet?".

I'm so jealous that you are playing games without me. I haven't quite found that ideal situation for playing games every Sunday with a yummy treat as well. Although Brendan, Shawn and I did play Game of Thrones last weekend and it was super fun. And I'm glad to hear that those boys got under your skin a little. We all miss you too.
