Sony Mommy Bloggers Event Part I
So far it has been pretty exciting. The plane ride here sucked. It was four and half hours with screaming kids. I made it through it though. LOL They had a limo pick me up. It was pretty cool. I got to baggage claim and the driver was standing there with a sign with my name on it. I probably will never have that happen again, but it still was super awesome. We are staying at La Valencia Hotel and this place rocks. I highly recommend it to anyone staying San Diego. I have an ocean view room. I can literally lay in bed, open my balcony doors, and watch the waves. Sony also provided in our rooms some chocolate and a rose. We also were given gift certificates for dinner. I had fillet mignon. It melted in mouth, that’s how good it was. Even though I didn’t order dessert, I tried my fellow bloggers desserts and they were to die for. So far, this trip has been awesome. Tomorrow should be another fun day. We get to play with the cameras that we are getting. They have us going from 9 am – 9 pm, so hopefully, I will get a chance to blog somewhere in there.

“They succeeded where lesser men failed,” said Chaplain Robert Glazener. “They proved themselves in ways that men out there who never served, never volunteered, never sacrificed, would never understand. They sought neither glory nor special recognition, but they gained both by their actions. They are the true American heroes today and deserve more honor than we can humbly bestow on them.”
The helicopter carrying the men went down seven miles east of the Bagram Air Base while on a training mission.
These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.
We Should Not Only Mourn These Men And Women Who Died, We Should Also Thank God That Such People Lived
