Only have a minute to pop in but PIPS!

[creamsiclechica]

Well links to PIPs, lol.
Yesterday was Matt's Silver Star ceremony and it's made national news!  I can't believe it!  It was so amazing, perfect, and incredibly historic, I still can't comprehend the amazing things we got to do and the people we got to meet yesterday.  Matt was incredible, so humble, articulate, eloquent.  I think my heart burst about a thousand times with pride.  A's party is today and my family is still in town until tomorrow, but I miss you all so, so, so much, and I wanted to share some links to some pictures and stories so you could see.

Some of the highlights of the day was that A actually applauded for her daddy after he got his award pinned by the General, and then pointed right at his silver star, which made for some really great pictures.  I'll post a few more when I get the time, but I LOVE YOU!  And I'll be back in a few days! (heart)

On another note I've been to Ft Campbell for work. The company I work for has a contract there and I went to meet and do an orientation for them. Not too much out in the Campbell area! I guess that's why everyone lives in TN?
