My husband's company... He's delayed, but it looks like it might have been a good time..

I, uh..... can't help but think of the other's what weren't there, but for other reasons. My FRG leader lost her husband... He was one of the handful that weren't there.. :depressed

I got through about 2 seconds and had to turn it off. I'm just not good with watching this stuff yet, but I bet it was great. We all remember those that were lost. We had a tree ceremony for ours yesterday. I just can't do those yet. I wish I was strong enough to be there for support, but I'm just not right now.

Your hubby will be home soon. Are they letting him have his milk again?

Wow. It brought tears to my eyes...but I had to watch every second of it. :) Thanks for sharing it, because it was a warm feeling. I feel so sad for some of DF's men who won't be coming back...and I think of them often. :depressed

That's pretty cool!

The clip made me tear up...especially the part where the girl ran into her guys arms. I'm so glad your husband is finally home

The video made me damn proud of everything those soldiers have done for our country, yet it made me sad too. I'm glad they are finally home. For the fallen soldiers, they'll never be forgotten.

I like your siggy. :)

I can't watch the video, it'd make me cry a ton.
I'm so glad that your hubby will be home safe soon, and I feel so awful for those who lost their SO's. I love the new siggy too!

I am so sorry for your FRG leaders loss and along with the other ladies who have had a loss due to this war.

That video makes me proud of the men and women over there but also makes me cry cause my dh is still over there and won't be home for another 9 months. I hope by the time his deployment is over I will be as strong as you are. It makes it really hard to watch those videos knowing that my hubby may not make it home or that someone else's may not. Although I pray everyday that everyone makes it home safe and sound.
