commissioned

Yesterday Brad and I attended the commissioning ceremony for our dear nephew Stuart Martin Blomgren as a 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps at the University of Minnesota campus. It was a perfect day and we enjoyed spending time with family--Mom and Dad Blomgren, Kurt, Jenna, Cody, Vance, Kaitie, Stuart, Kyeanna, Kelly, Freeman, Marian, Terri, Darla, Darla's son, Kyeanna's parents and her grandparents.

Dad was the first person to salute the newly commissioned officer.

Congratulations, Stuart and we are very proud of your hard work and dedication.
