Congrats Grad!!

Not your typical graduation of the season, but I wanted to give a shout out to my sister Lauren who completed 12 weeks, I think, of Officer Training School. Her graduation was over a month ago, but I still wanted to post about it. I can't really give any true description of how OTS was for Lauren, because I wasn't there, but I do know it was very very tough and not everyone made it through to graduation. At one time Lauren described it as prison...........not fun. But, it trained her and put her in the position that she is in now: Second Lieutenant Naylor.

Her rank is in the top 15% of the Air Force, which I think is pretty cool. The coolest part to me though is that she now lives in Panama City! We've already visited once and plan on visiting frequently. Our last visit will be it's own post entirely, coming soon. Anyways, good job Lauren, and we are proud of you! ...........And you need to update your blog by the way............... It's almost been a whole year.
