O Captain! My Captain!

Recently Rob was promoted to Captain in the Army and on Saturday he was made the commander of a new unit in Tooele, UT. I was asked to be at the promotion because I would be presented with flowers and welcomed into the new unit, as wife of the commander. Rob said I should bring the boys instead of organizing a babysitter, but they were quite wild and so I didn't get many pictures taken and the ones I took were a bit blurry because I had Thomas on my lap who was trying to take the camera from me. I had food and books for them but Thomas wasn't interested in either. Luke sat on the floor and ate fruit loops. The ceremony was short, mainly consisting of a lot of saluting and flag passing. I was glad I could be there and see this special moment for Rob.
