Welcome Home Deployment Ceremony

 Everyone gathered at Sills Field on Schofied Barracks to celebrate the return of our soldiers! Seeing ALL of the extended family members of the soldiers who were deployed made me realize just how many families went without their mothers or fathers this past year. To see them ALL together brought joy to my heart! Seeing MY family together was indescribable.
Ammon fell asleep before we left for the Welcome Home Deployment Ceremony so, I was not able to change him into a more patriotic attire. The Welcome Home Deployment Ceremony took place after Dallas had been home for about three weeks, it was just one of the many events we attended together as a family to celebrate his return.

Dallas and Sadie were chosen by a CBS News Reporter to express their feelings about the deployment. Unfortunately, we were unable to watch the interview because I cancelled our cable...it was just too expensive. Dallas, of course, answered each and every question very eloquently and Sadie did a wonderful job as well! I think we "stood out" from the rest of the crowd because our girls were wearing some very cute patriotic dresses!
