November 29th

Well, Today is the day!!! Jordan is flying to Italy for a 6 month deployment with the Navy. He said he will have a layover in Ireland while they refuel. He is really excited but also a little nervous so please say a little prayer for him. Italy is 7 hours ahead of us so he is going to have to do some adjusting to the time difference. They gave all the guys Ambien so they will be able to sleep on the plane ride. Jordan said it's a 15 hour flight! Here is Jordans address if you want to write to him while he is gone. I am sure he would appreciate any mail he can get as he will probably really be missing home. Jordan is going to get back in the States in June and will be home for 2 weeks in July!


Jordan we love you and we are so very proud of the path you have taken with your life!

What's up!!!

Hello Family and Friends,
I have neglected my blog and thought i would take a few minutes to catch everyone up on what is going on. Jordan graduated from his schooling in Pensacola,FL in October and came home for 2 weeks. We had a wonderful visit with him. We were sad when it was time for him to leave. Jordan is now stationed in Brunswick, Maine until Nov. 29th. On that day, Jordan is leaving for Sigonella, Italy. He is going to be stationed there for 6 months. He is super excited. This is one country he wanted to visit while he was in the Navy! When Jordan gets back he will be able to come home for a 2 week visit. He said sometime around 4th of July! Jerry and I told him that we are expecting some awesome Italian wine shipped home:) Jordan is now an Aviation Electrician and he works on P3 planes.
For those of you that know my sister Kim, she is graduating from Nursing school in Dec. I am so proud of her and I know she is going to be an awesome nurse. Early Congrats Kim!!!!
Nothing new with the Knight's. We have had a little break from sports. Jenny will be starting basketball soon and Jami is going to try out for the school Dance team. Prayers for Jami please. She really wants to make the team and I think she would be an awesome dancer.
Finally, Prayers are needed for my Aunt Elaine. She came off the steps wrong early one morning and really did a number on her knee. She has a High grade near complete or complete ACL tear, a complex meniscus tear, bone contusions, a Grade 4 displaced cartilage, and a large amount of joint effusion (fluid on the knee). I pray that she will have a speedy recovery. Love ya Aunt Elaine!!!!
Well, that's about all that is going on with the Knight's hope you are having a Happy Fall!!!
