Hi...We celebrated Elizabeth's 24th birthday at Minnerva's Restaurant here in Aberdeen. It is my favourite restaurant here in town. John and I went to a movie after we had dinner!! It was so fun!!! We celebrated with Katie and Jenna.
I am looking forward to the food!!

The Aberdeen Quinn's on April 29, 2008John, Lochlan, and I went to Washington D.C. at the end of April. John reenlisted for 6 more years. It was the Army Reserve's 100th Anniversary, so it was a huge deal!! Washington D.C., was so amazing!! I loved the architecture! The huge building.... WOW.... We took a tour of the Pentagon and Arlington Cemetery, very cool. John and I went to an Army Ball, so we got all dressed up for the occasion. I was so sick!!!! and John was getting sick!!!!! but we had a wonderful time. On the way back to Aberdeen the pilot was inexperienced, so we were unable to land due to poor visibility and had to fly back to Minneapolis. We stayed a night in Minneapolis at a hotel... We were so glad when we finally made it back to Aberdeen!!! What an adventure....
