In the Jungle

kitten 1

The mighty jungle

kitten 2 The Lion sleeps tonight.

kitten 3 Ok.  Not so much a lion.  A Kitten.

His given name is Captain Morgan.  His Daddy is PFC Ryan, who will be departing  Iraq tomorrow, heading for home … mid-tour leave.

Can I get a YIPPEE!?!?!?

  We are busy stocking the cantina and charging the batteries and buying up all the American flags in town.  I’m thinking balloons and a poster for the airport…

and a 21-gun salute, a parade with a marching band, with tubas, lots and lots of tubas and trumpets.  Unicorns!  And rainbows and confetti.

Party at Mr. B’s Cantina all week long.

Conga line starts here.

I think I need better shoes for this conga! Is your head still in the clouds? I'm so, so happy for you. I think I'll go outside and do a cartwheel. I'll let you know if I break anything-it's been awhile. Give Ryan a hug for me.
Love the Kitty!
