What??? She's blogging again? I AM!
Well, I am trying, and I figure I gotta start somewhere.
Why not start with some cool old pictures from when Jason was in the Honor Guard,
the first time we lived in Virginia 2001-2004.
This is Jason marching in some parade (I don't remember which). We were down in Ocean City, Maryland. I remember it was so hot, and I felt so bad that he had to wear his big stuffy uniform.
Right after the parade, I was making the boys pose for pictures.
This one is from Jason's friend. I'm not sure when it was taken, but they are at Arlington Cemetery for a funeral. I think he looks so serious in this picture. It must have been hard to be at the funerals, to not show any emotion, I heard some were pretty sad and emotional.
I know Jay loved that he got to serve in the Honor Guard. It was such a fun and special experience for both of us, a great way to start our Coast Guard lives.
So handsome!! ...but I have to giggle just a little at the hat with the tiny little strap. Jerry's pilot hats are similar and he always feels a little goofy, so he jokes by wearing them around the house with a beenie over his ears and shades on top. You both make for such a lovely couple! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW this is so cool! I always wondered what he looked like in action when he did the honor guard. SO IMPRESSIVE! I never blog anymore too and I should. This will be my inspiration to try too. How are you? How is the pregnancy?
ReplyDeleteI loved those days too. My favorite 4th of July and the best Christmas in New York ever!
