my baby cousin tony has enlisted in the army.
this is a good thing. as I've said before, we are a military family and this is cause for celebration.
yes, we haven't forgotten there is a war going on. and he understands the risks involved with his choice.
tony is following in the line of some great men in our family; my dad, his dad, our grandpa, two of his uncles, just to name a few.
war controversy aside, the military is an honorable professional. one where self respect is gained and skills are honed.
his going away party was just a few days before he left for basic training (aka bootcamp). he is at fort benning in georgia and all he can say so far is that it rains...hard...everyday!

his dessert of choice.it followed a filipino feast of lumpia, chop suey and SO much more.
hunter and hailey hamming it up for the camera.
nothing says "bon voyage" quite like a competitive game of guitar hero.tony, we are so proud of you. good luck.
