Yesterday, June 14, Justin and I along with his parents and sister attended a "wetting down". A wetting down is a tradition in the Navy for newly promoted officers as they were tossed in the sea, hence the name, wetting down. Times have changed and so has the meaning of "wetting down." Now, a party is thrown by the newly promoted officer and in the past few weeks, the boat has promoted 7 guys! Congratulations LTJG Kirkpatrick, LT Bailey, LT Ceschini, LT Campbell, LT Im, LT White, and LT DeVorse!
The party was held at Shore Break in Virginia Beach and was attended by family and friends. We all had a great time celebrating the successes of these fine men. Below are a few pictures from the night! Enjoy! (For all of the pictures, please visit www.picasaweb.google.com/LaurenAC421)
