Four More Years!

Today I watched as my husband was Honorably discharged from the Marine Corps...

for all of about 2 seconds.

Then he reenlisted for 4 more years! "Four for the Corps" as he likes to put it! I'm so proud of him and his dedication to our country. Thank you to Ensign Barcelos for reading Ski the oath and to both you and your family for taking the time to be there for his reenlistment. Here are a few pictures of my "Hard Core" Marine!!!

Getting discharged and reenlisting

As his wife, I got a certificate of appreciation for standing by his side "through thick and thin."

These are the infamous "Yellow Footprints" where every Marine begins his/her tour in the Marine Corps. A drill instructor climbs aboard the bus as you arrive at the recruit depot and starts yelling at you to get off his bus and get on his footprints...your entire world changes from this point on.

Matt was amazed watching the recruits and the drill instructors at MCRD today. Apparently we have a few marines in the making!!!
