Thanks, but it good to have it to share with other!
Just got my last call from my boy today! (4/10/15) and I just heard from him on Easter to say that he will be going to Pensacola, FL and to bring his cellphone to the airport with me when I see him off. His PIR is 5/15/15. I cannot tell ya how excited this mom is right now!
Hi Issaiah40:31
Yay he made it there! Now for the real fun. My son has already left boot camp and is awaiting A school now. Good Luck to you and your son. I know boot camp can be tough on you waiting to hear from him.
My son arrived at boot camp today, April 1st. Anyone else?
Free places to take your kids in the Dallas/Ft Worth area

I'm sending this to a Houston Navy mom that I know. In my area there are many places for homeless vets to stay. I'd think there's got to be something in Houston.
Looks like Dallas Hale got his truck back
Hope all Texas Mom's affected by this weather are safe and sound! I still have to make it home from work. Keep warm!
OK, who is looking for things to do in the D/FW area? I've got many years of experience finding things for kids to do in the area, both expensive and cheap. Which direction would you like to go? East? West? North? South?
Thank you for all the info J's/S'smom! We moved here, unpacked, one left to go to college, we got the others involved in their soccer, husband still trying to find full time work, get connected with a church etc, then my oldest left for boot camp! So much still to learn and see!!! Does any one else on here have a hubby retired or active duty??
A get together sounds great!!
