Dear Soldier,

My name is Brandon.  I am 28.  I just got married to my wife, Kristin, last August.  We are currently getting ready for spring. Kristin likes to plant flowers and vegetables so we are going to build a vegetable garden in the back yard.  I’m a little worried about our little Dachshund Tink figuring out there are carrots in the vegetable garden because she loves carrots.  We also have a little pug named Joey, but he seems to like beer more than carrots.  I can’t drink a beer in peace anymore without the pug sitting at my feet hoping for me to spill.  He’s a good dog though.  He really likes riding in the jeep with the top off.  We usually go up four wheeling to get out of the city and get some fresh air.  I hope you are able to get some fresh air sometime soon.

For those of you still serving, keep your chin up, we are all thinking about you.  Come home safe and sound.

Brandon & Kristin
