My brother is my best friend and before Kali and Trevor came along, we spent every minute together in Provo. Trevor had huge shoes to fill living up to the expectations my brother (and his treatment of his little sister) had set.
I know everyone prob. thinks their brother is pretty cool, but no one has any idea what this guy has experienced in his life. I was with him daily after his return from a tour in Iraq, and I don't think he'd mind me telling you - war is hell. My brother not only overcame the atrocities of war but the effects thereof. He is now, truly, the most patriotic and spiritual man I have ever met.
Only through his experiences have I truly learned what patriotism is about.
I love you RyRy. Thank you for all you have done for me and our nation.

Well, I don't know about everyone else but that first picture looks like he didn't come back quite right from Iraq...... ;-)
Thanks Andrea. I know your post will mean a lot to Ryan.
i have been so bad at checking blogs lately. i just finished looking at several new posts, including the picture of your preggo belly for your mom which was adorable, and it makes me miss you, a lot. Hope you know I'm thinking of you.
Tell your brother thanks for serving for us. I have a special place in my heart for soldiers. They are amazing, self-less people. Thank you.
