Another Great Weekend

As Billy mentioned earlier, we went to a marriage in the military seminar this weekend at the OCF house. It was very informative and a lot of fun! There were different sessions: first was everyone together, then we broke up into dual or singe military couples, and then girls and guys, and then we came back together as a group. It was a lot of fun hearing lots of different perspectives and stories. I feel we both learned a lot and heard a lot of tips to make married life easier in the military.

We also went to the 100th night dinner and show. The dinner was ok - unnecessarily long and the usual filet mignon with potatoes and green beans - very typical but I think most people really enjoy it. We did have real wine which was cool, but I didn't particularly care for it much. The dessert was delicious though. We couldn't really hear the speaker which is too bad because he probably had some interesting experiences in his lifetime. He had been born to parents who had been slaves and he ended up joining the army and becoming pretty successful -except for maybe the time he forgot his name while speaking to General Patton!

After dinner we went down to the 100th night show. It was funny - better than previous years when the goal was to single out people and make fun of them. This year it wasn't quite as obvious who the characters were supposed to be. A lot of them were just general steryotypical cadets like the tool, the guy who is obsessed with his muscles, the profile girl, ice cream girl, and a few others. I think a lot of the characters were meant to be compilations of several people, not just 1 person in particular, which was cool. It was a really fun weekend, but it is not over yet! We will go to church soon and after that Billy signed up to do puppies behind bars so we will get to play with a puppy for awhile!!

Until next time,
