Sgt. Major Grandma

YIPPEE!! Sgt. Major Grandma is officially retired - doesn't she look fancy in her dress greens!!

This is not the official picture, they had a professional photographer who took a great picture of the whole family, but us little picture people were not able to take pictures during the ceremony and we were in the big picture. Austin looks confused in this picture but he did great during the ceremony.


In this picture, he is trying to explain to his Uncle Patrick that it is not polite to show your belly in formal places and that Uncle Patrick should quit trying to get him into trouble...



And then there is this picture, which may go down as one of my most favorite pictures that I have of my boy. You see, Austin has, for his age, really small feet - like he can wear 6-12 month shoes. So in this picture, due to the angle it looks like he has HUGE feet!! For once, people won't comment that he has small feet. This picture was taken in Dad's truck while we were waiting to get into the Army base. We had to have our vehicle searched (as did everyone else) and during that time AC just slept. One of the inspectors asked us if we were ready for Oct. 6th, and in our semi-nervous state, we said "what's happening on the 6th?" and the guy was like, Uh, Hello the UT/OU game... oh yeah!! Anywho, we obviously found a fellow UT fan all the way out in Georgia working at the Army base.

Well, that's all for now, AC is sleeping believe it or not. Hard to believe since his father fed him chocolate cake at lunch - sometimes you just gotta wonder what he's thinking.....

Proud of grandma,
E,L & A
