13

8 homes.


7 moves (all at least 3,000 miles across country if not across an ocean) - 8 if you count moving from Boston to Groton when we got married.

5 deployments (3 to WESTPAC, 1 to CENTCOM, and 1 to EUCOM)

1 Change of Homeport (huge pain in the arse those are)

2 weeks after our first son was born, we were packed up in the car driving across country

3 days after our second son was born, I was recalled off of baby leave to go to sea because another boat broke.

13 years since my wonderful wife and I were married in Boston.

Happy Anniversary, Sweetie!
