James is back home now after a looooooong day at MEPS. He had to get up at 3:45 this morning so he could be in the hotel lobby by 4:20 for the shuttle ride over to the MEPS building in downtown Dallas. He spent most of the morning going through medical screenings. He didn't have to take the ASVAB, the aptitude test, since he had already taken it ten years ago when he enlisted in the Marines. That made the day go a bit quicker for him, which was really nice. Afterwards, the recruiter got his plane tickets and hotel reservation made for next week, so he is officially good to go on travel arrangements. He'll be leaving around noon on Tuesday and getting back next Thursday night. It will definitely be a full two and a half days for him!
After I picked him up from the recruiter's office, I realized we were wearing coordinating shirts, so we ran outside really quickly to take a picture or two together. Here's a few of them - the last one is my favorite. The haze is kind of a funky look and I want to take a few more later that I can actually zoom in on without looking washed out.
