Our New Marine!

We have a new marine in the family! Monday and Tuesday of this week, my brother Ashton went up to Phoenix to do some testing to become a Marine. He is very excited about it and feels like he has found his calling in life. College really didn't appeal to him, but once he decided to be a marine, he has never been so sure of anything in his life. He wants to make a difference in this world and is very excited to serve his country. It is nice to know that there are still people out there that feel this way. He will make a great marine and we are very proud of him!!!



He turns 18 in May and has signed a letter of commitment to go to boot camp this November. He said he knows basic training will be tough but when he looks back on it he will be proud of his accomplishment. He wants to be a fireman as a career and was very interested in what the marines have to offer. Way to go Ashton!
