Tyler's Promotion

Tyler was promoted to Captain today!!! OoooRah! We we're both very excited, it's been a long time coming. I was able to participate in the ceremony and "pin" Ty, along with the Lt. Colonel, I was a little nervous but it all turned out okay. Only afterward did Tyler tell me that I was suppose to "punch" the pin in. I wish I would have known that! Anyway, I am so proud of Tyler and all the hard work that he does, he's the best!


Here is a funny picture of our good friend Cody saluting Tyler. For all of 15 minutes Tyler actually out-ranked Cody. We told him to enjoy it while it lasted.

Hey Captain Hart! You look really sharp. I wish we could have been there to see you get your bars pinned on. Kathy, now maybe you can "punch" the pin in Ty since he forgot to tell yuou to do it before.

Way to go Ty!! Do you mean you're supposed to push the pin into his skin not pin it on his clothes? Doesn't that hurt? I'm such a wimp.

Jill said...

YEAH for Ty, thats sooo cool. You look really cute too. Mike will make sure to never be in uniform around him or else he'd have to salute him.
