Update on Robbie

Dear Family,

After a successful basic training, Airman Robert Haglund has graduated from a bunk bed with 27 other roommates to a bunk bed with just one roommate. It’s not the Ritz, but the location is hard to beat – on a bluff overlooking Monterey Bay. He’s already signed up for SCUBA training and a personal trainer, generously provided by the Air Force at no cost to RFH. He also gets four meals a day, so he’ll have to keep up the training regime to stay at his fighting weight of 172.

He’ll be at the Defense Language Institute for 60+ weeks of Arabic and then gets to go back to Texas for five months for cryptology training at Goodfellow AFB in San Angelo, Texas. As Robbie’s Lackland AFB branch president said, it’s not the edge of the earth but you can see it from there (Pres. Hetzel is from Santa Ana, Texas, population 1,200, in the same part of West Texas).

You can send e-mail to him at:

robbiehaglund@gmail.com.

Regular mail (cards, cookies, etc.) should be sent to:

Robert Haglund
443 Chaplain Magsig Avenue
Box 3184
Presidio of Monterey, CA 93944.

Love to you all from Robbie and the rest of the Foxboro gang,

BHH

Matt and Sarah make it home...

Sorry for the lack of posts recently. It is summer afterall. We would like to congratulate Matt, Sarah, Miles, Owen, and Harper for traveling cross-country and making it back all in one piece and still sane! They got back on July 4th and were gone for almost a month. You can read about their trip at their blog HERE.

*UPDATE*

Here is a slideshow of their trip:

Also, it was fun seeing all of you at the wedding. We would like to make a slide show of pictures of the wedding and of all the things you did while you were in New Hampshire. If you would like to contribute pictures for the slide show send them along to haglundfamily@gmail.com. We would like to make the slide show within the next two weeks.
