Oh Scott that's awesome!  So glad your son made it home - and that's so sweet that he wanted it to be a surprise ;-)

Our sailor made it home last night too - nice to have him home!

Well apparently my "venting" the other day was unnessassary. My son supprised us Saturday...well almost supprised us. We were able to figure out that he had conspired with my parents to be at their house when we went up for a family Christmas party. My wife and I did not tell his sister, brother or anyone else that we knew. So when he walked in it still was a great moment.
So thank you all for the words of encouragement and I am thankfull for the opportunity to spend the holidays with my sailor.
Merry Christmas everyone!

Our son "officially" left Goose Creek this morning!  Now it's on to Ballston Spa!!

Richard - BZ to your son!  I saw this posted on the Navy Mom's site, putting 2 & 2 together I'm guessing it was your wife that posted it! Happy for the proud parents ;-)

@Brian - when all is said & done our son is also hoping for west coast since we are in CA! He's carrier, not sub, so less options....Oh well, I don't want to get ahead of myself!

B's Mom, Hopefully we will all meet up. They found a 3 bedroom 2 1/2 bath, full finished basement for $1700 They have to pay heat (oil) has a fireplace and central air. That's their top pick but said they want to look at a few more.
@Richard. Congratulations!! I can't wait until I can say the same. Amanda is praying that she gets a ship on the west cost.

Just got word my son (ET) finished up at BS - and will head out to serve on one of 4 SSGNs in King's Bay.  

I never figured he'd want to live in the south ---- we live in a cowboy-type town in Colorado!  Alas, there's a southern belle from SC somewhere in the story ---- 

It's been 2 years from boot camp to graduation from prototype.  

In any event - Thanks for walking the path with me!

Brian - my son thinks he knows who your daughter is too! He & 2 of his buddies are renting an apartment in BS.....if the houses don't work out for your daughter have them check www.winnerscircleatsaratoga.com .  I know they have 3 bedroom apts for rent - only thing is they are unfurnished....but they are pretty close to where they will go to school/work.  It's nice that you are so close to BS - our son keeps getting further & further from CA.  Oh well, we always wanted to visit NY!

Bob - yeah it's going to be interesting in NY - my son is a California boy and doesn't really know much about the snow LOL.

He's flying home on the 22nd so we will have him for Christmas and heads back to NY on 1/10 ;-)

Congratulations to all who passed their Cop's at Goose Creek......now on to that next step.

For all those headed to Ballston Spa, Dress warm, our son Matt is their now 2 months into Proto Type....Good amount of snow on the ground.

Have a great Christmas!

Congrats to all. B's Mom, my daughter recognized a picture of your son. Amanda is also going to Ballston Spa. They (her and 2 friends) have been in touch with a realtor and will head up to look at houses when she is home. It is only about 4hrs from us.
