Happy 1st day of spring from rainy Virginia Beach, VA! (from a Navy wife and native of Louisville, KY and yes it's pronounced 'louavull', folks *L* Get it right please)

Hampton Roads is getting geared up for the (long overdue) homecoming of our beloved USS Theodore Roosevelt on Mar 27th. I don't know anyone on board but I'll still watch it on the local news and shed tears of joy for this homecoming. Then I have to prepare for my husband's homecoming (fast attack sub not attached to TR battle group BTW) in early April. *s*

But for now, since my youngest son is taking a nap, I'm gonna follow his lead. *s* Have a great day everyone!

Have a nice nap, Severa. It is always nice to see your cheery posts.

We have followed the USS Roosevelt from time to time here at the Canteen and quite a bit at the Guild as the Guild sent numerous care packages to them. They did a great job on their deployment and then had there deployment extended because the USS Kennedy did not pass inspection. I know you folks will give them a joyous reception on their return and look forward to your account of it.

Oh, please tell the folks on the USS Theodore Roosevelt hello and THANK YOU! Many of us on the Guild thread sent packages to them at Christmas. The packages included letters and pictures from children, Christmas stockings, socks, hats, etc. I know some people sent stuff before and after Christmas too. We are so proud of the men and women on the USS Theodore Roosevelt as well as all of the other men and women serving our country.
