A Major Hottie

This past weekend was a special one for my little family because my husband, The Mister, was promoted to the rank of Major in the Army! That in itself is cool, but it's even better because he was promoted a full year "below the zone" (basically a year ahead of schedule, the zone being where his peer group is)! I've always known was awesome, but it's nice to see that other people recognize that as well!

Here are a few pictures from the (very short) ceremony:My in-laws were able to make a quick visit to share in the occasion. The Mister's father was a Major in the Air Force and so he used one of his old rank pins on The Mister's beret, which was a nice touch.

I'm so proud of my husband! He's a great officer, a great leader, and an outstanding husband and father--not to mention a Major Hottie too!. :)
