Jearel's little brother, Tyler, is getting ready to leave for Afghanistan. He is stationed out of New York, and will be leaving sometime in October. We were fortunate enough to have him home for two weeks, before we said our goodbyes. So many thoughts, emotions, and prayers will be with him while he is gone. We are beyond proud of you Tyler, and have already begun counting down the days till your return.
Tyler's visit consisted of yummy dinners, thanks to
Jearel's step-mom, and a house full of family fun.
Jayla was so excited for Uncle Tyler to come home from "the BIG Army", as she would say.

~WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH TYLER~
Be safe, stay strong, and hurry back!
We will be missing you soldier.

i am glad that you got to spend two wonderful weeks with tyler before he has to leave!
to tyler (if he reads this), thank you for serving our country.
jay and her uncle tyler are so cute! ......he is such a sweet guy....glad i got to meet him!
Hmmm, somehow I missed this post 'til now!?
You can tell HOW proud he is to be Jay's Uncle- reminds me of Michael's brother. He came over to help put Camden's big girl bed together, & when he first got to our house, Camden RAN to him into his arms. Makes us happy when our girls actually show some LOVIN to family, huh?
We will keep him in our prayers, for a safe return home.
Ohh, & I LOVE that sweet photo of Jayla asleep on Jear's shoulder. She is a muffin.
Ok, You gotta warn a girl.. I'm sitting at work bawling :) Thanks for the post... you say it so much better than I ever could! Love the picts of Ty and Jay! Priceless... we're gonna miss him....
