First off let me start by congratulating my wonderful husband on finally becoming a C-17 pilot. It has been a very long road for him, and it continues to be so... but at least now he knows what he will fly until he chooses otherwise! We had a small get together at our new home in Charleston to congratulate James on his accomplishment. Most all of the Ellison family made it and good friends Clif and Ansley were also able to come. We all toured downtown Charleston and had a nice walk from the Battery park to the Market and back. I am not sure how many of you have made that same truck... but doing it 8 months pregnant... I really thought I was going into labor! Know I can understand what strong contractions feel like as apposed to B. Hicks!Due to weather in Oklahoma, I had to postpone the party from Jan 31st to Feb 7th which caused some problems. There were a few people that were planning on coming the 31st, but were unable to make it the 7th... sorry to change the date so last minute! We even had a good friend, Smoak, fly up from FL to surprise James only to be a week early... so instead Smoaky and I had a great weekend in Charleston! My dear friend Amanda and her husband Tony also cam eon the 31st, since we would be deploying to Iraq the next weekend and it would be the last "vacation" he had for 7 months.
