Belated Happy Birthday to the U. S. Marine Corps!

Here is Marine son's, David, comment from my Veterans Day post. "Thanks for thinking of the veterans Mom and Happy Birthday to all my fellow Marines. OOORAH!!"

Arghhh. I forgot this, sorry David. Below is my post from last year. It seems appropriate to repeat it! It takes a few minutes to load on high speed. Now it is 232 years. The birthday is November 10.

This is David when he came home after bootcamp, and the rest of us except Gene. Was he taking the photo?

My post from last year:

"The Marines have 231 years of service today. Happy Birthday. Here is a tribute to them. It is very long but a nice tribute to the Marines including our son. Thank you all for your service to our country.

Semper Fi"

Man do we look young in that picture. Hard to believe that we took that picture over 25 years ago! Boy does time fly when your having fun.

Yikes! We were young! I used to say, "Grandma is slow, but she is old." Now that is me. :(

That's a pretty scary picture. Wow.

Joanna, you guys look OK. I look like I have a red wig on. Hmmm. Guess we never like photos of ourselves.
