Daddy is home!!!
























Greg is home, the kids are so happy!! There are pics of the hanger, the air field, the plane coming in, the soldiers getting off the plane, the guys marching into the hanger (with a full Army band), and the first sight of Daddy in the crowd. It is nice to have Daddy home!!
God bless!

PS: Please pray for the Command of 4th BSTB... I hope and pray that they are convicted over how they treated us and other soldiers over this deployment. The lack of support from both the FRG and the Command was outrageous!!! It saddens my heart to think that we were basically forgotten... what a missed opportunity to show your soldiers the "love & concern" they speak of so often in their speeches. As far as I can see... it is all words and no action! How sad is that? Pray for conviction!!!!
With deepest regret;

Best time ever on Jennifer and Marvin's farm!!!!





























We had the best time at Jennifer and Marvin's farm!! We got to have a weenie roast, brush fire, collect eggs, go for a walk in the woods, walk down the creek & play in the water too! The kids had a blast!!! Alaina tried all day to catch a chicken, and finally got to hold one at the end of the day. LOL! And OMGosh, the fresh eggs are soooo good!! We all got to try the duck & turkey eggs too. Yummy!!! It was a wonderful day of relaxation and fun... we are planning to go back and camp on the lake behind their property this summer. Sullivan Lake is right behind their property...they have great camping there, and a beach too! LOL! Can't wait!! ;)

God bless!

Daddy will be home soon!











GREG IS DUE HOME ON THE 24TH... WE WILL SEE? SOMETIMES THEY GET DELAYED. Please pray for all the soldiers who are coming home!!

This is the first group of 101st coming in. I know the families were so happy to see their loved ones home safe and sound! I ask that you all say a prayer for those families who have lost loved ones this tour... may God bless them today and always!

FREEDOM ISN'T FREE! SOME GIVE A LITTLE, AND SOME GAVE ALL FOR FREEDOM!!
MAY GOD BLESS THEIR SOULS!!

A wonderful day of Gifts!!! :)







Jaden has a wonderful day receiving gifts!! Stacy Brown's Mom (Our BSTB FRG Leader) owns XTREME LASER TAG in Clarksville, off Ft. Campbell Blvd. She and Stacy put together a wonderful card, and donation jar for Jaden. They raised 100 dollars, and gave it to Jaden today.

Your kindness is so wonderful, and it warms our hearts!! We will never forget this... THANK YOU!! :) That money will hep Jaden to get a new game for his Xbox 360 that we take to the hospital. This helps him keep his mind off the chemo while in-hospital for weeks on end... and the extra cash will also help with food cost at the Hospital. You guys are so sweet!!!

ALSO, Brad Foley sent Jaden a TEAM VELOCITY SHIRT, A LIVESTRONG bracelet, and an autographed pic of Brad racing his bike in California!! Way Cool Brad!!!

Brad and I went to school together at Ben Davis High School, and when he saw Jaden's updates on Facebook... he was so very kind to send him these wonderful gift!! THANKS BRAD... YOU ARE TOO SWEET AS ALWAYS!!! :) IT IS GOOD TO KNOW THAT SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE!!

God bless each of you for your kindness, and love that you express through calls, cards, emails, gifts, and prayers!!! We could never say enough, how much they mean to our family!!! We can not say thank you enough!!

Love in Christ
