Got a call from Blake last night and he's entering the last part of his training there. So far, he says he's been very successful with what he's trying to learn and is still loving it. Since he's graduating at the end of July, he'll be home within the next few weeks. I know he will want to see you all when he does finally make it home. He's so grateful for the prayers you've sent for him in this training. He's said again and again that he couldn't have done it at all if it hadn't been for your prayers and concerns.
It doesn't look like we're going to be able to go up and visit him before he finishes his training, but he'll be home soon. It's a little disappointing, but we'll get to see Washington someday. We're just not able to get away for a week right now.
Blake has asked for a big BBQ when he comes home. I told him that would be no problem. I'll reserve the pavillion here in April Sound for the night and I hope you can make it up to the lake for adult beverages and burnt cow flesh. Yummo!
Not much more to report. The news is getting sparce now, but we'll all be sitting around and talking with him soon. Hope to see you then.
Till later...

We are impressed with you, Blake. You went from a little kid to a really fine person - big heart, big smile, great values, good sense and strong mind. You are going to do great. I hope you know you have tons of support and people praying for you every day. Take care and God will guide you.
Love,
Uncle Dale and Aunt Dara
