Catching up on Week1 and Week2

while Justin tries to sleep off whatever crud he seems to have caught!! Poor baby has had a fever for almost 3 days straight!  He refuses to go to an Emergi Care type place bc it’s not a matter of “life or limb”!  To that I say, WHATEV!!!!!!!!!  Hopefully he will break this on his own, otherwise, Monday he’s headed to sick call bright and early!!

Anyway, I’ve got quite a bit of catching up to do while sickly is sleeping so let’s get started!!!  Justin just finished week 2 of UPT and is still doing wonderful!!  They had another test (this time on Systems)  on Friday- he aced it!   He didn’t take any pics this week but I can show you week 1!

His helmet!

That's our guy in the yellow helmet!!

Working on PLFs (Parachute Landing Falls)

Falling...

"Landing"

But no worries, still ALL smiles!

Going back for more!! Practices makes perfect!

He came home that afternoon and said “I got a lil dirty!” haha.  He was COVERED in dirt!!  No biggie, nothing our washer and SUPER SLOW dryer can’t fix!

Now, as some of you may remember, we have this PRECIOUS lil furbaby named Paisley…

She looks something like this, right?

WRONG!!

Girl got a haircut!!!!!!!!!!!!  At first, I was mortified! MORTIFIED, I tell you!  But now it’s kinda growing on me!  We can actually see her face- which is oh so precious!  I do want it to grow out a lil bit more but I don’t think we’ll be returning to the “mop” look anytime soon!   P.S. this pic is from the first day Justin started feeling like poo   Paisley could tell he wasn’t up to par and stayed right by his side ALLL day long!!  He LOVED it!

Then week 2 of UPT came and he took no pictures!

What did I do during “week2″ you ask?! Well first of all thanks for asking, but not much!  I did however do one teeny tiny craft project!  One of the teachers at the school I subbed for this pas semester gave me the toppings containers from the TCBY her and her husband used to own! Great for pencils, scissors, glue sticks, etc.  But they were slightly lacking in eye appeal, so I spruced them up a bit

Now if only I can get a classroom to put these in!

So that brings us to today!  Today was Career Day at the base so lots of different aircraft fly in and go on display for everyone to check out.  The purpose is to prep the guys for making their “Dream Sheet”- a list of what they would like to fly after completing UPT.

This morning, sickly Justin, had to wake up early and sit through almost 3 hours of briefings over all of the different aircraft, then he came home and crashed until it was time to go back and check out the static displays.  We headed back out around 1 and only stayed about an hour!  It was HOT to say the least.  I got sunburned, he felt like he was going to pass out about 3 different times.  It was NOT fun!  But we did get to see some cool jets upclose- 2 of which he would give an arm and leg to fly!

C-130 NOT something you'll find on his dream sheet! haha

Headed to see his #1 Dream Sheet aircraft- A-10!

Wondering where he will fit! This is the biggest cockpit of all of the jets tho!

Mean ole face with a huge stinkin gun coming out!

F-15- not too shabby!

Checking out a "black jet"- T-38 (trainer he'll hopefully fly) painted black!

And this is where all fun came to an end.  We both wilted and I still don’t know how I managed to drive us home!  I think I had heat exhaustion bc I layed out with a friend this morning while Justin was at his briefings and never got around to eating.  So between the pool and the cooking runway- I was miserable.  He obviously was already miserable so we made a beeline for the car!

Speaking of my hubs, I need to go give him his next round of Tylenol

This week they are supposed to be in the altitude chamber on Wednesday and spouses are allowed to come and photograph them so fingers crossed for some cool pics next week!

LOVE YOU ALL!!
