A Big accomplishment for Brendan: This weekend we went to New Mexico Military Institute (NMMI) for Brendan's graduation and commissioning to the military. He received his rank as 2nd lieutenant and his associates degree in Arts. Those who know him, know how hard life was for him in the beginning, with multiple illnesses and surgeries. Doctors said he would be physically and mentally delayed, Brendan did struggled in school socially, didn't have many friends, but Brendan has always been optimistic about his life and what he wants to do. Brendan has been accepted to Texas Tech in Lubbock this fall, and wants to major in journalism. I and his brothers, sisters, family and friends are so very proud of him. We love you Brendan! Keep up the good work.









It was cold and drizzily, forget my bad hair day, It was Brendan's Day!



The boys and I waiting for Paul at the Roswell airport


Paul home from Leadership Training and Airborne School, we are all also very proud of him and his accomplishments in the military, I do worry about his less than safe activities, but he loves it and his wife supports him totally. Be Safe Paul!

Paul earns his wings

See his battle scar when his parachute didn't open, he had to pull his reserve parachute and ended with getting his head and neck tangled....


Christina was very happy to see her husband after being gone 6 months.


These brothers have left a good examples for their younger brothers.
