We got to attend a family briefing today at Camp Williams. We got to ask lots of questions, and got some much needed answers, for the anxiety filled Momma. :)
We found out we don't have to just drop him off and run Monday at the hotel. We get to hang out for a few hours!
We MIGHT be able to see him off at the airport, but that is WAY dependant on many things out of our control, so it might not happen. But just to know it's possible... :)
He will be able to text me when he has landed in OK! This one is HUGE for me! Such a relief! But... we'll only get to talk to him maybe 3 or 4 times during basic-until first of Sept. But during AIT(advanced individual training)-after Sept 9th, he can call and text in the evening as much as he wants! Yay!
And last but not least, there are about 6 other guys from his current unit, going to Ft. Sill on Monday too. This helps me a lot too. Just to see the faces of the guys who are going with him. <3
Oh and we found out, sending treats to boot camp is actually a punishment. Hahaha, so I guess if he doesn't write.... muwahaha
So my anxiety is a little lower today. Yay for small miracles!
Here's some fun pics we took today too! In the ones facing us, he's front row, second from the right. Facing away, back row, far left corner. Not the guy in the last row alone. :)

I thought this was fun... it was SO windy... but you can hear them calling cadence for a minute. And then Emma and Jack laughing because the Sergeant lost her cap! :)
This was cool. As they were marching, all of a sudden the start spangled banner came on the loud speaker, so they stopped and stood at attention until it was over. :)
