Deployment Day

Well today was the big day, David got underway at 1130 this morning after a slight delay. Lucky for us, that meant having him home just a few more days which I was grateful for!! After David checked onto the ship, he headed up to the flight deck to give me a call and wave goodbye. Look carefully at the last four pictures, that's David waving and standing up on the left hand side of the flight deck. It was awesome to see him up there, I am so incredibly proud of him! Myself and some fellow officer spouses, hung out at the pier to watch them man the rails and get underway, it was an amazing sight to see. Thankfully, David will be able to communicate with us often via email, which will make this entire thing much more bearable. I will update this blog as often as I can to fill everyone in on how he's doing! Enjoy the pics from today's deployment.
