Visiting Uncle Ben


We went to visit Ben at the Naval Academy in August and there was a group of Asian tourists that wanted to take pictures of Brailyn. I mean like 12 young Asian women swarming around a 19 month old and taking hundreds of pictures of her. It was funny, and a little weird. Brailyn was standing a little away from us by a wall, and she kinda did a little pose with one hand on the wall...I wish I had a picture of it. The little celebrity. Anyway, it's one of those funny moments that you'd never expect, and probably won't forget.






This past weekend we went to Annapolis, MD to see my brother, Ben, at the end of Plebe Summer (boot camp for the Naval Academy). I have to admit, I cried when we we first saw him after they did formation. Maybe it was the pageantry, or maybe it was because I'm so darn proud of him. Whatever the reason, I love my brother and am proud to tell everyone that he's going to the Naval Academy. He looked so handsome in his uniform, and we had such a fun time seeing the Academy and walking around the city. We are so proud of him, and we were so grateful that we were able to go visit him. We'll miss him. GO NAVY!!
