We got a letter today from BEN! As most of you know he just joined the Navy and is in basic training right now. I was so excited. He's doing great. Here are some of my favorite parts of the letter:

"This is going to be the best thing I have ever done. I just have to get throught it."

"I got some awesome glasses, they really look like dad's back in high school but brown and probably bigger but I can see, so that is good."

"I haven't got yelled at too much because I do what I am told."

"I got a job to do for my whole division. I am the mail PO so I get to deliver it to everyone in my division."

I am off to reply to the letter; peace out!

 

p.s. I censored our address, since we don't want any stalkers and crazed readers showing up at our house wanting autographs!  Sorry Ben, I hope the Navy protects you from our stalkers and crazed readers, because some of our crazed normal readers may want to write you... Carlie.

Hey, do you think your brother would like to come over to the Buehrles for dinner sometime? I could literally pick him up on the way home from work if he's still in Great Lakes.

That is such a kind offer! Unfortunately, he can't leave. But thank you so much Buehrle's for the offer! You guys are great!
