We Woke up at three o’clock in the morning when Shane, Nicole and Haley arrived from Louisiana. We got them settled in the truck and then went back to sleep. We then woke up at six o’clock. We all got cleaned up and dressed and headed for Parris Island. We arrived and found a seat in the drill hall and waited for all the graduating platoons to march in. After that they were all released on liberty. They had five hours of on base liberty. Finally, we all got to give him a big hug and spend time with him. We went by the exchange and then the commissary and picked up some deli meat and went to a park and had a picnic. There was a lot more during the day but I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. We had a wonderful day with Thomas and look forward to his graduation tomorrow morning.
