Down on our friends Farm with the Squadron!

On our way to Austin, this morning, we went to my husbands annual work Mandatory Saturday picnic. This is where a lot of the squadron guys and gals get together at one of the guys Ranch out near Bowie for a Pig Roast! (and to give out Medals and Awards too.) It was a great time to see everyone with their children and the wives and husbands.

Bruce has been flying with these guys for 14 years and its so nice to see them. Being a military wife is a great thing. We understand each other. We have lived all over the world and we know what having to be strong is. We know that friends are precious jewels and we rely on each other for support. We would never hurt each other. We value each others friendship like sisters.



What a fun time. Some rain sprinkles didn't spoil our fun! Isnt this little girl precious! I lvoe her galoshes!




POGO STICKS AND PUPPY DOGS! I asked her how old she is now. She showed me with her fingers. Her mom was a well known news anchor woman here a few years ago and now is devoted to her beautiful family.
