USMC Spouse Ball 2011 / Promotion

There Is A Wonderful Group Called Armor Of Light! They So Graciously Decided To Talk To Our FRO And Put Together A USMC Spouse Ball Since Our Husbands Are Deployed! I Had A Lot Of Fun With All The Wonderful Ladies! I Have To Say Although My Hubby And I Don't Make A Big Deal About Going To The Ball...I Sure Did Miss Him! We Have A Few Months Left Of This Deployment And For That I Am Thankful! But I Am Ready To Hold Him In My Arms And Me In His! But As I Said I Still Had Fun With All The Ladies! We Even Had A Beautiful Cake Donated For Us! We Did The Cake Ceremony Where The Guest Of Honor Cuts The Cake Then Passes It To The Oldest Marine Who Then Passes It On To The Youngest Marine. What We Did Was Chose The Spouse That Was Married The Longest And The Spouse Who Has Been Married The Least Amount Of Time! It Was Awesome! So I Have To Share Some Exciting News! My Husband For Promoted To SSgt On Nov.1st! I Am So Very Proud And Happy For Him! He Has Been Working So Hard For It! So On Nov.1st He Was Like A Little Kid On Christmas Morning! I Am Just So HAPPY For Him! I Know He Will Have A Lot More Responsibility And Longer Hours And Yes It Will Get To Me At Times And We Will Probably Argue Over It! But I Know He Wanted This Promotion! So Congrats To My Wonderful Husband! I Am So Proud Of You My Love! I Can't Wait To Hold Each Other Again! I Love You With All My Heart!
