Craig graduates from training in Virginia

On August 16, 2011- Craig graduated from his training in Virginia! Training began on March 28, and after 5 months of very intense training, Craig made it to the finish line! Words can not explain how incredibly proud I am of this husband of mine.

I flew out on Monday, August 15 along with Craig's brother and sister- Brent and Jaime. Watching Craig graduate was seeing Craig reach this huge goal, and I am so proud of Craig for always striving to achieve this and accomplishing it. He has had this dream since I met him 12 years ago. It really reflects the man he has always been to me- hard working, high- goal oriented, makes his own way to provide for me and our kids, and would do anything for his family.

While in Virginia, I did some sight seeing at Mt. Vernon- George Washington's home- with Terry, Debbie and Jaime. And then Terry, Debbie, Craig, Brent and I toured Arlington Cemetary.

Brent and Jaime flew home on Wednesday, and then Terry, Debbie, Craig and I continued on to Kentucky to sign on our house and school for the kids. My next blog post will pick up from where I leave off here...
