Yes, my shameless ploy to get cookies from Jayne (see my June 7 post) worked. The tubs you see in the pictures arrived today. I got a really odd look from the Sgt when I laughed at the package. If you can read the notes, you'll see why I'll always miss the Christmas Party and Kentucky Derby party. Anyway, a few of you knew that I had my Physical Training assessment today. This is the pushup, situp, and running test the army uses. This test doesn't go on my record, but the instructors use it to assign extra PT, determine your running group, etc. I'll have to pass an official version before finishing up here. I passed everything on todays "diagnostic test". I was slower running than I wanted, but did better on pushups and situps than expected.
Keep Em in your prayers. She leaves tomorrow to look at rentals in TX.
As a side note, I received a letter and package today. Neither of which came from my wife or any member of my family. (I get much braver when I am out of Emily's reach, don't I?) I have talked to Emily plenty this week, just so no one actually feels sorry for me.

Just to let you know, yours is the first blog I have ever read. Tonya told me I had to read it :) Was especially proud to read of your commissioning by the retired NAVY Captain ;) But the REAL questions are.......were the cookies edible, did you share and who made more friends with them, you or me?? We miss you and Emily already!
