Hello everybody! I am pleased to let you all know that the training at the Officer Basic Leaders Course that I am in is coming to a close. It has been full of countless days of boredom and niches of excitement. I have learned a lot about being an Officer and there is so much more I need to learn, but the familiarization was good. I think it would equate to the MTC when I couldn't wait to get out but I will have some good memories. Perhaps the best part of this whole ordeal (besides the weapons training) would be that I am getting back in shape to where I was long ago, even better in some cases than I was in my old football days. I have met plenty of people and made many friends. I am thankful for all of your support especially those that aided Brandi with the children while I have been away. She has grown and demonstrated more strength than she ever knew she had. I miss them so much and can't wait to get home to the chaos.

On the more exciting note, we will be moving to Hawaii on October 10th! Here is a picture of Tripler Army Medical Center will I will be working. We don't know where we will be living yet so we're a bit nervous. I hope that we can stay in touch and I will keep the pictures coming. Aloha!
