(Actually Brad went to the ceremony while I stayed home with what I THOUGHT would be napping children which ended up NOT being. Then we all went to the reception together).
According to our semi-long winded CO during his speech today, the ceremony is called a "wetting down" ceremony. I'm not really sure why. He explained it but I was too busy clapping my hand over Camden's mouth as he screamed "YOOOOOO GABBA GABBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!" over and over in a room of probably 75 guys with heavy shoulder boards on their uniforms that have probably never in their life heard of that preschool program.
Actually it was pretty cool that we got to be a part of it and it was fun for the whole 15 minutes that we lasted before Camden's screams of happiness went to screams of rage and anger for having to hold still.
One of those few little perks of being in the military. Or being married to it. Which is pretty much the same as being in it.
And congratulations to Brandon and everyone else that got promoted today.

And then to complete the day we played in the pool once again and then ordered pizza and ate it on the front lawn. I really can't think of a better day.
