Nate comes to visit!

Before I left  work yesterday I noticed a message from my cousin Nate who just happened to be coming to LA last night and went to meet up with him. I haven't seen him in like 3 years.

He has been away in Afghanistan fighting and had some really close calls on his last deployment.He came back home (well his home in NC) in January. My mom and I as well as other family members have been so worried about him and glad he is home.

Anyways he was in AZ jumping outta Airplanes for some Army training in AZ and him and a buddy of his who also decided to drive to CA to see family. We all met up at Acapulco for dinner and margarittas. It was great catching up with him. I am happy to know that he will be retiring. He just did his 10 year and I think for now for a few years is going to focus on moving back to Florida with his wife and spend time with his kids.
