Cheers!

He is the young man that is pictured on my sight in the right-hand side.  No, that is not a picture of me but a picture of my fallen frat brother, home boy, and little brother.  I am throwing the Phi for you Frat. \m/ A PHI! A Phi little brother…06!

So this day, let us remember what this day is truly for.  It is a day to pay homage and thanks to those who gave their lives for us.  It is a day also to give thanks to those who are in service now, and those who have served.  Thank you.

Merry Christmas!

God please keep me and lead me through everyday.  I want to be around for my child.

Amen

As promised, here is one of the pictures from the vacation.  This is a picture of the Great Wolf Lodge.  It was great.  The small one had so much fun here that there was a demand to go back to the water, and to the wolf.  *Laughs*

Remember this is a resort.  It is no different than DisneyWorld, etc.  That is a hint for the parents. ;)

Cheers!
