My niece, Ashley, was commissioned into the Army and we were fortunate enough to get to go. It was a pretty cool thing to be a part of her special day.
The siblings:
My Marine nephew (Joe), my Army niece (Ashley) and my RN niece (Nickie).
And their little brother, Jack!
Joe, Greg, and Ashley

As many times as I've been to Austin, this was my first time to the Capitol. Ashley's ceremony was held in the Senate chambers.
While in Austin, we stayed in a house with a pool. Needless to say, we all had a great time relaxing and being with our family.
On our first day there, Brock found a snail.
My toothless wonder! He has 4 missing teeth!
Ahhhh...brotherly love.
Paisley (Ashley's boyfriend's daughter)...and such a cutie pie!
Jack with his daddy.
Brock loves the pool!
Isn't Jack such a cutie?!?!
Matt (Ashley's boyfriend).
