The biggest event though happened today at 1pm. My little brother Connor left for basic training. Connor has enlisted in the Marine Corps. Some of you already know this, some of you don't. It's been a fairly traumatic event for our family and I have tons of mixed emotions. I do ask that you guys keep him in your thoughts and if you're the praying type you might add him to your list. :)
While Connor leaves for basic training, my Dad has only a few short weeks left in Iraq! We're counting down the days to his homecoming! :)
Hope everyone is doing well!
edit:
this pic was taken by yesterday by my mom- Connor & his dog Venus before he left:

What a week! I hope you are feeling better and at peace with your brother leaving. I can't imagine how hard that must be. Yay for your Dad coming home soon!! And that fall fair sounds like lots of fun! {hugs}
hugs to you, can't imagine seeing a brother go off like that... i would probably sabotage something... ;) but yay for your dad coming back. I suppose that is the silver lining!
