Look at this crew!

When I searched for pictures for Nicole's photo book, I came across many old favorites. This was one of them. It was taken in front of the Met Museum when it was located in Londonderry. This was one of the kid's favorite places to go! I loved the colors in this photo but more than that I loved that I captured all 5 of them together. Those were always my favorite times. Coordinating schedules with a blended family can be a real challenge so when we all were together it was always special. I can't get over how little they all were. I knew time would go by quickly and it has! Dane is about as old now as Nicole was in this photo!

Speaking of Nicole, we got another letter from her today! She sounds homesick but strong! She said that getting mail really keeps her motivated! If any of you would like to send her a card or letter, please do so at the following address:

RCT Giallongo NicoleC/3577
PLT 4030, 4th BN N Company
BOX 14030
Parris Island, SC 29905-4030

Please do NOT send anything other than cards or letters (no candy, magazines, packages, etc). Please try to use white envelopes only as colored envelopes or decorations like stickers can cause them to be the brunt of jokes from their Drill Instructors. Crazy, I know, but it's the Marines so what can ya do?
