Private First Class Nelson

Austin came home tonight! Since I was the only one around-parents were still going to be in Cali-the boys and I got to go pick up Austin at the airport. I wasn't sure if I would see him coming in his dress uniform or some civilian clothing, but when I looked at the top of the escalators and saw bright blue pants with a khaki shirt, I knew it was Austin. Austin looks good, trimmed down a bit (he didn't believe me until he put on his jeans and his belt didn't fit), got tan, and all in all, looks good. I'm glad to have him home for the next ten days, even though I leave to go camping tomorrow, but after that it'll be good to see him because then it'll be another couple of months until he'll be able to come home again.

(Austin coming down the stairs-I'll have to get a picture of him looking all snazzy in his dress uniform.)

(Boys waiting for Austin to come-good thing it wasn't crowed because they were running circles)

My two little boys!
