Marines


On Monday Jason had his Marines over for a picnic. He is now in charge of the Basic Marine Platoon which consists of Marines who have graduated boot camp, but have to stay on the island for some reason or another. Like healing from a broken ankle or require surgery of some sort. He currently has about 21 Marines, but some of them are on leave, so we had about 14 at our house. It was the easiest picnic I have ever hosted! I barely lifted a finger, every time I turned around they were taking out the trash or cleaning up. They were really happy to get off the island and be in a family atmosphere. They are a good group of kids, but having them over did make me feel a bit old. :) Especially when they kept calling me "ma'am". :)
