Can I share some of our good news?
My dh found out today that he will be promoted to Lieutenant Colonel (Lt. Col.)

This was a big deal for us. My dh has 14 years in the USAF and this pretty much now guarantees the 20 year retirement mark for him. It was also the 1st look for his promotion at what they call "in the zone" and you don't want to get passed over as that starts to be a career killer.
