Bubba's Goodbye

As most of you know my brother Brian (a.k.a Bubba) is leaving today for basic training for the Air Force. After that he is going to school for Pararescue. We probably won't be able to see him for a couple of months so my mom had a big going away party on Sat. for family and friends. We will be sad to not have Bubba around but we see how ready he is for this and wish him the best.


Bompa, Barbara and Cole playing in the sandbox.
Kathy Nai meeting Henry for the first time. (are you happy Kathy, I updated and you made the blog!)
Jack and Luke playing boccie with Bubba and his friends.
Luke post boccie game. Notice how much fatter his right side of his mouth is as opposed to his left. Luke learned that you shouldn't throw the boccie ball up in the air unless you are certain you can catch it.
Cole's first Popsicle, I know he's 13 months and he has never had a pop but he thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks Aunt Emma for helping with this mess!

Bubba's cake, supposed to say "Good Luck Brian", however I think the people at Price Chopper need a proof reader since it says "God Luck Brain". Oh well, it was still good!
Mother's Day at Grammy's, Luke took another stab at boccie ball.
Bubba holds Henry one last time before he goes.
