Back with more pics! =)

Alright guys, the rest of the week I am subbing 5th grade at ACS which happens to be their last week.  Needless to say, I will be exhausted and therefore blogging will be the last thing on my mind each day.  However, I will most definitely be back this weekend with any pictures Justin captures during UPT this week!  I have a few from today to share right now but first we’ll start with his actual first day…

Sexy! Sexy!

Is this not how all pilots prepare for a day of training?! Yes, those are legos!

He's one cutie patootie!!

Ready to go with "The Plan" in hand!

A couple of his friends- Phil and Tanner

Later that night we were out to celebrate the start of UPT and our one year anniversary!! =)

The Happy Couple!

Best Buds

Marlen and I- my bestie here in Columbus!

Josh (Marlen's hubby) and Justin

This boy actually went to the DJ (without my knowledge) and requested my fav song!!

The guys singing Sweet Caroline to wrap up the night! =)

And then the next morning, our fabulous one year anniversary!! Whew, this past year has FLOWN by!!! You may or may not know but the traditional gift for one year  is paper.  Justin has been telling me for several weeks that all I’m getting is a rem of paper and well…

he delivered! A nice pack of Office Depot paper!

Since I didn’t feel my gift was very intriguing, after all it is just paper, we moved on to his…

His commissioning certificate framed!

But then he insisted I open my pack of paper….

come to find out I had this sweet note waiting on me...

and then I found this. A flip book of him proposing, the kiss at our wedding, the toast at our wedding and us leaving the wedding! SOOOO COOOL!!!

How did he get that in there, you ask?

He's verryyy sneaky! And an engineer =) haha!

Then it was off to dinner at Santa Fe Steakhouse…much like Texas Roadhouse…no, not super fancy but who needs super fancy when you’ve got rolls and cinnamon butter?!?! Not this girl! =)

"One down, 99 to go!"- Nancy, well said! =)

And of course, we got out our wedding cake which has weathered not only 12 months in a freezer but also an 8 hour car drive from TX to MS.  Needless to say, it had seen better days.  And, since it could only be cut by something similar to a chainsaw, we just admired with our eyes! =)

Still a pretty cake!

Ok guys, I think I’m going to have to call it quits on this picture posting marathon!  Justin has been having to take all of these different meds for the past few days so they can test for allergies/reactions of any sort and tonights medicine was Restoril- a sleeping aid.  He took it about 2 hours ago and just looked at me and said “I feel drunk!”  So, I’m going to assume that’s the medicine saying “GO TO BED!!”  I’ve got a long week ahead of me anyway so I can use the extra sleep! =)  Night night all!!

Oh, I do have a favor to ask of those of you who can help.  Today I found out that my next door neighbor back in Whitehouse had a car accident yesterday that has left him in very critical condition in ICU.  I know his family and friends would appreciate any and all prayers for a quick and healthy recovery.  Thank you.
