 As we head toward the happiest day of the year,
  Cheryl and I find ourselves looking past the GREEN HOLIDAY to Memorial Day
  Weekend.  Cole and Marcy will be tying
  the knot down in Port Aransas, TX.  We
  will be staying on the beach, sharing a house with Chad, Hayden, Zachary and
  Tommy.  Several other members of the
  SMITH and FINCANNON clans will be joining us, too.  We will host the crowd the night before at
  our house.  Marcy’s mom and dad have
  also rented a house, and will host the wedding reception.  The wedding ceremony will be held in a
  small chapel nearby.  Look for pics in
  June on the web. Only our son, Tommy, has had much radically
  change in his life since this time last year. 
  His new duty station is IMF Bangor on Naval Base Kitsap.  Unfortunately, he is now hundreds of miles
  away from his daughter, Macey, who remains in San Diego. For the rest of us, we are a year older, perhaps
  a bit wiser, but our day-to-day lives remain the same.  We stay busy, enjoy a chance to be with
  family and friends, and miss those who are far away. |
