He's there

Kevin was supposed to have arrived in San Antonio last night. He called me at about 6:45 and said that he was back at the Radisson in SLC. Their flight had been cancelled because of mechanical problems. The travel liason for the Air Force had given them a phone number to call in case anything happened. So Kevin called and then was assigned the task of trying to reschedule flights for 13 people including himself. After a few hours he had the flights rescheduled, but they weren't able to leave until the next day, today. They had cabs scheduled to pick them up in front of the hotel at 3AM. He had already been up Monday morning at 4:30 AM. Guess he better get used to that. He called me today at about 12:45 and said he had made it to San Antonio, and he was nervous. He said that he was in the USO office at the airport and the TI (training instructors) wouldn't be there until 5PM. The people in the office told him to relax because come 5, there would be no more relaxing. So he is off to start his adventure. I told him not to worry because hopefully they wouldn't know his age right off, so they wouldn't be able to give him grief for that yet! Pray for him!

It begins...

Well we have been really busy these last two months getting ready for Kevin to leave. We moved out of our house so that we could rent it out. The kids and I are staying with my sister Madeleine. Kevin left today for basic training. I don't have the cable to download my pictures onto the laptop, so this post will be boring. Any way that is what we are up to. Wish me luck for the next two months while Kevin is unreachable!
