Negative ghost rider the pattern is full

So, I got to fly a helicopter the last two days in a row. In a word I will steal from Mom; Phenomenal. This has got to be the greatest week of my life. I tell you what, clear the blades, push on the starter, listen to the turbine spool up and pop the throttle open while the rotor blades start turning = major adrenaline rush! Still can't believe the army paying me to fly.
Sure beats living in van down by the river eating raw bacon and making squirel tail bookmarks...

Speaking of wrestling...

I thought all the boys in the family would be proud of this - one of the guys who works for me won state in wrestling and got a scholorship to wrestle in college. Anyway, we were talking about winning state in a 5A school (he went to West High, which is one of the biggest schools in the state) and how intense the competition is at the bigger school and he said that the competition is pretty intense in a big school, but that for wrestling, the best division is actually 3A. He said all the college recruiters pay WAY more attention to the wrestlers in the 3A division than even the larger division because they are just far better wrestlers. He said basically that all the competition in the larger schools can't compensate for the farm boys that come in with no form, but major muscles and endurance and just throw people around.

Anyway, I thought you all would be proud - given that you all wrestled in the 3A division.

K-man wins his weight in wrestling wahooooo!

Leedan, Tyler, and Jessica helped with scoring, referee, and clock.

Update from Alabama!

Look what we found...a baby alligator! Joselyn not only touched it, but she also held it! (Okay, we were really at this zoo! it was so fun- we got to feed the animals, hold alligators & snakes, etc)
