Crawdad Music Festival

We went to the Crawdad Music Festival in Ozark, AL its one of the cities right next to us.

We have never had Crawfish before so we thought we'd go try it out and experience the South!

Crawfish are like a mini lobster. Good but takes a lot of effort.

Family Day 4/6/2012

OK I know I am not good at this whole blog thing so forgive me.

Garet started primary which is the flying part

of flight school the end of Feb beginning of March.

He has waited 28 years (yes he's getting old)

to actually sit in the pilot seat of an aircraft and fly.

Below are a few pictures of this extremely good looking pilot in training!!

This is my handsome husband and his books he has to read and some memorize,

and this is only the beginning of flight school, not including the Apache course.

Getting out of the helicopter while his "stick buddy" flies.

The TH-67 that they learn on

His stick buddy mini Coop (the flight commander thought it would

be funny to have two Coopers together and since Garet is

obviously not the mini one).

Look at him fly!!!
