Re-enlistment.

Here are some pics from the Hubby's re-enlistment ceremony. 

I wasn't able to be there in person, so I sent him to work with the camera. 

I was crossing my fingers that he found someone reliable to snap a few photos at the culmination of all of our big discussions, planning, and worrying. 

We have added 5 years to our Military adventure, which starts after next May! 

Although, it comes with a lot of baggage, it is one of the best decisions we have ever made! 

This is the part of the oath where he says, 
"My wife swears to move our entire household 3 more times, and I promise to subject her to involuntary stress, and leave her at a moments notice." 

I swear that's actually in the oath! 
Isn't that basically what they are saying?? 

I'm kidding...

I thought the C-130 was a nice touch to the ceremony. 
It really made it special. 

Needless to say, I'm proud. 

Very Proud!
