Go Army

This my little brother.

He is now not so little and a Captain in the United States Army.

Today was his retirement ceremony after 7+ years of service and 2 tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan. 

 

Here he is with Kayla

(These pictures are not in chronological order because I could not get Blogger to cooperate with letting me move the photos around, and they are also by no means all the pictures that we have, but these are some good ones.)

With Kayla, and Cole

Congratulations, Captain Leever, on a job well done. Your service and sacrifice are humbling, and your humor got us all through waiting during the long deployments.  We are so proud of you, and SO HAPPY YOU ARE MOVING CLOSE TO US!
