On Friday, December 18th, David was getting promoted to CW2. We are all proud of him!! It was at 12:30 so the boys and I took off a half day and headed up to Baumholder to take part in it.
David's cake for his promotion. I think it turned out pretty good and tasted good as well.
The boys messing around at David's desk before the promotion.
David and his boys getting ready for the promotion. AJ was disappointed because I forgot to pack his good pants so he had to wear jeans instead. I said he still looked very handsome!!
Here David is taking the oath of office for officers with Major Flores.
It is time for the reading of the promotion orders. Look at all my handsome boys!!!
The boys changing the rank on David's shirt.
The final touch, his jacket and he is now officially a CW2!!!
Major Flores gave him a really nice gift and some very kind words!!
David as well gave a little speech thanking many people in his military career. It was a great speech!

After promotion cake - can you tell that part of the frosting was black?!?! Thankfully it came off.
The boys messing around after the promotion. The mascot for David's unit is knights, so there are many around the area. It was a great promotion and we are very excited for the next step in his military career. We headed out for dinner that night to celebrate!! A wonderful start to the weekend!!!
