Michael's parents flew in from the Seattle and Oregon, and my family was represented by my parents, and my sister, her husband, and to our boys' delight, their cousin Anna.
Click here for a brief article.
Michael being sworn in by Captain Bernard Dunn.
Michael's parents put on his shoulder boards.
I got the honor of putting on his officer jacket.
Both Braiden and Noah got to put on Daddy's cover (Braiden was too quick to be captured on camera).
First salute from Chief Jason Carter.
Another salute.
As a show of appreciation, both Michael's mom and I got flowers.
The boys and I also received certificates of appreciation for our support of Michael's Naval career.
Time for the speech!
Some current and retired Photo LDOs.
Those were the official photos... now for a collection from several other sources!
The boys did an excellent job sitting through the 45 minute ceremony! When Daddy got up to speak, they did run to give him some hugs...and to wander around the stage, but for the most part, we're entertained and seated with iPhones and lollipops!
Baby Sister was there too!
