Out of AIR

Well, finally it has happened. I am out of AIR! It was about 6 and a half weeks, but it is finally over. Outside the building is our practice area and there is a little archway with a guided missle over it, and a bell on the archway. The tradition is that when you graduate air, you walk through the archway and ring the bell. So, on Friday, October 26, 2007, my class rang the bell to "Highway to the danger zone". Then, we all shaved our mustaches underneath the archway. Man it feels good to get that off my face. So, here are some pics of my class, and us having some fun around the archway. In the background you can see an F14 and some other cool ordnance items.

Baxter's Sweater

Here is little Baxter in his new sweater. Is it a coincidence that the sweater is burnt orange? I think not. When we put this on Baxter, he seems pretty content, but as soon as we leave the room, it comes off. I don't even think a straight jacket could stop this little Houdini!

Check out the stache

Wow, this is only two weeks. I look like Mario. well, minus the hair.

Lisa's first day of work

Here Lisa is in her uniform as she starts her first day at the Child Devolpment Center. I think a brighter color might be a little more exciting for the children.

A surprise from Baxter

Alright, the other night, Lisa and I went out to see a movie and get dinner and when we came home, Baxter's cage was wide open. We called out his name and from the love sac, his little head popped up. The real surprise is what he left on the carpet!
