Drew's Graduation from Boot Camp

Drew graduated from Boot Camp in Fort Sill, OK, on November 19th. Linda, Dewayne, Hanna, Mom, Mandy and Caden all went to see him graduate. I wasn't there so I don't have the story behind each picture but I hear the trip was eventful. The most interesting part of the trip was Dewayne's decision NOT to take the GPS. I hear that decision came back to bite him. They were all really proud to see Drew in his dress blues.
  He is really happy being in the Army and he actually liked Boot Camp. They call him 'Bootmaker' in stead of Shoemaker there because they told him, "we don't wear shoes in the Army."
Below is a picture of Mom and Drew.

Here's Drew with his very proud sister Hanna.
The proud dad, my brother, Dewayne...
and last but not least doting mom, Linda.
Below are pictures of the ceremony. I wish Jes and Sam could've seen their cousin graduate! We are so proud of him.


I'm sure there wasn't a soldier there with a happier,
 prouder family than the Shoemakers!
