news about Warren

It looks like Warren will be leaving Kuwait this week and head over to Iraq. I got an email update from the company stating that the 1st Sgt is already there and already getting things ready for the soldiers. He mentioned that it's a little bit cooler at the FOB and that they will live in tents for a while until they can get a building built. Warren will have access to the internet and will have regular phone use. The soldiers are supposed to be at FOB Warhorse by the end of the week.

I have an address for him, so if anyone would like to have it please email me at gypsysorchid@gmail.com

Warren says that the PX (their store) there is small and so he'd appreciate anything anyone can send. He's mostly looking for snacks, lemon juice (the concentrate), powdered gatorade/powerade in individual packets, beef jerk and stuff like that. He'd also love to get letters from anyone, but emails are just as good. His email address is cat6tech@yahoo.com

Family visit

My aunt Catherine & cousin Stephanie came to visit us Friday.

Here's my cousin Stephanie with her cousin Nathan


On Saturday, we went to the Valero lodge and enjoyed a crawfish boil




And here's Catherine having fun with Nathan

We had a great time with Catherine & Stephanie. Saturday was spent at the lodge, Sunday was spent shopping around town and celebrating Stephanie's birthday. On Monday, we spent the day at the outlets in San Marcos and then on Tuesday (Stephanie's actual birthday) we spent time at the Alamo and hanging out at the Riverwalk.
