Today was promotion day for Aaron, and boy has he has been waiting for this day for a loooooong time. After months and months of him being at the top of the Specialist list for his MOS (68 alpha), he finally got picked up and is now a Sergeant. Since today was the official day of him being promoted, Aaron really wanted to have his ceremony today. Heck, I don't blame him since he has been waiting for it long enough.
The ceremony was short and sweet!
I was hoping Aaron would give me some sort of hint on when to take of his old rank, but he couldn't when he was standing at attention.
Taking off his Specialist rank.
Connor threw the old patch like he was supposed to.
Then I put on his Sergeant rank and "punched" him.
Connor looks very concerned.
Connor clapped when the Commander gave Aaron a framed certificate.
Way to go Aaron!

My aunt and mom flew in from Texas about an hour before the ceremony.
Proud mother-in-law.
Happy family :)
We ended the ceremony with some really good cupcakes, thanks to SSG Walker!
Congratulations Sergeant Olson! I am so proud of you.
