Hi all,

We are thrilled beyond words - Todd has arrived back on US soil. He got back into the states at about 3:30 a.m. this morning. He is again at Ft. Bragg, NC, and will be there out-processing until Nov. 27. On Nov. 27 they will have their "dismissal" ceremony (don't know the "military" term). He will be able to come home after that date, and should be no later than Dec. 3rd.

Obviously, we have so much more to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. My heart aches for those whose sons and daughters will not be - those who gave their lives. Our heartfelt prayers go out to those families, as we hope your's do. And we keep our prayers going, as Scott is still there, along with so many other Americans, and we will keep them going until all are home.

We spoke to Todd last night (their plane landed in Shannon, Ireland to refuel) and again this morning from Ft. Bragg. He sounds great - is so anxious to get back home.

Again, we thank you all for upholding all those in Iraq in your prayers, but especially for remembering our boys. Our prayers have been answered for Todd, and for that, we have very grateful hearts.

I know that, once he is back and rested, he would probably like to thank each one of you on his own.

Take care, all, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving day with all your loved ones. (We plan to celebrate again when Todd is home!!!)

Blessings,
Sherrie & Bob
