The first night while walking on the river walk we spotted this carriage on a road and thought it  would be fun to ride in.  Thursday night as we pulled up to the hotel one of these carriages drove up, we just had to take a ride.  It was a ladies night; Rachel, Cathy, and MaryJo;  We had a nice tour of the historic German mansions King William district and South town.  So much fun!  We were princesses for an evening.


Just love this picture.

We are Proud of our Airman!

Mmm, Food


After the Coin Ceremony Michael was released for base liberty.  We decided to have BBQ for lunch and enjoy talking,, laughing, and the weather. After lunch we enjoyed shopping with our new Airman at the Exchange.

For dinner we decided to try the Gateway Club.  We found a nice  quiet spot on the patio to enjoy the food,  family, and beautiful weather.  We sat till sunset and had a nice view of the San Antonio skyline.

Coin Ceremony

 The coin ceremony started at 11:00.  This is where the Recruits receive a Airforce coin signifying they are now Airman.





Passing out the coins
                                                                           Great Hugs!

Airman's Run

 Thursday January 24, 2013 started out with the Airman's Run.  This is were family lines up along a road and the troupes run by in their Flights singing Jodies.  We started standing out on the road at 6:45 in the thick fog.  The picture above you can almost see the troupes down the road in the distance.
                             This is Training Squadron 323 Flight 114, Michael's.  Go Mustangs!
