My hero has returned!

Brian came home on May 7th and the boys and I are so excited to have him home! It is a little hard though knowing that Brian's friend, Tony Capra, should have been returning to his wife and 5 children also. He never made it home. He was killed working on an IED on April 9th. Brian and I bought tickets today(thanks mom!) to go visit Arlington where Tony's body was laid to rest. We will also be meeting his wife while we are there, which is going to be such an honor.

We are all doing well. Nathan loves Brian holding him. Samuel and Josiah fight over who gets to sit on Daddy's lap. =) Jacob is enjoying showing Brian all the things he has learned, and is loving the praise from his loving Daddy =)

I will be posting pics soon. I love you all

Hey... I am glad Brian is home. Pat said he knew Capra and was deployed with him at warhorse. So sad. We will be praying for his family.

You guys enjoy each other!

Hey Amber and Brian,

His father and I are very proud of Brian and you. We wish we could have lived closer, so we could share into the lives of our grandsons,more than we do..maybe one day. We love you all so very much.....and miss you all greatly... Love Donna and Dad
