Pictures of SGT. Hough

ITS OFFICAL YOU NOW CALL ME SGT HOUGH GOT IT!!! This is the e-mail I had waiting for me this morning when I woke up. Love Jeff's little smile in the first picture, so Proud. He waited along time for this day

He did it!!!

Jeff made SGT. of course I knew he would. It was offical on July 21st. He was 6th on the list for his unit. So proud!!! He was so nervous and wondered what was taking so long. And is now so relieved and can't wait till they have their next formation as that is when he will be promoted. So AWESOME.

Never to early to learn to Rodeo!!!

Sweet little Presley at 13 months rode in his first Gym Khana On June 12th. He does pole bending, barrel "racing" and than gets off the horse and pulls the ribbon off a goats tail. Super cute. The first pictures are of July 10th I don't know if it shows in the photos but it is downpouring like crazy the second set of pictures is his first time on June 12th . The horse he is riding is named Auckmed the first pictures our friend Alexa is leading, second pictures his cousin Ashley is leading. With his mom holding on to his belt loop.

GONE

Well it has taken me forever but I was finally able to download my pictures from my new blackberry Smart phone, way to smart for me most of the time.

On May 27th I flew into Indianapolis, IN. to meet Jeff for a last little trip before he headed out of the country. We were able to go to a Chicago Cubs game at Wrigley field, if you ask either of us how the game was we would have to tell you we don't remember any of it, as we were FREEZING is actually an understatment!! The field was great and it was exciting, we road the train into Chicago and than took the EL to the field. The next day we tried to go see Mary Poppins the Broadway Play, we weren't able to get tickets and so rode the bus out to the Field Museum, which is amazing and we might of spent more time there, but I had expected to be sitting watching a play and therefore did not wear the proper shoes and my feet were KILLING me and still are by the way. We also were able to go see some friends of Jeff's and saw some gorgeous IN. country. The time flew we had a great time but of course it was to short. Before I knew it we were at the airport for me to catch my plane and Jeff to catch the bus back to Camp Atterbury. You want to see airport men move quickly really be crying that seems to motivate them to an high alert status!! LOL (now anyway wasn't so funny that day)

Jeff has now been in Airifjan Kuwait since June 4th.
