.. meet the graduate ..

alright so i am like 3 weeks behind on this. i suck as a wife sometimes. right now is one of them. lame. i have been updating my food / diet / gym / whatever blog (click here if you want to take a peek) almost everyday and i forgot that i had another two blogs to update. wow. alright. so on april 28th my hot hunk of a husband walked across the stage and got his diploma. it was definitely a family affair and he loved it every single minute of it. here are a few pictures from that day..

he looked so great and his department was fantastic. they gave all the pilots a set of wings to put on his stol, you can see it in the picture with his grandma, and they gave him the dr. seuss book oh the places you"ll go. and of course an empty leather folder for when they mail his diploma to us. ha ha. 

congrats cody on your big day. i was so proud of you, i might have even misted a bit. MAYBE. i am so proud of you making a choice to be great at something and doing it. hopefully our kids will get those genes. congrats graduate. 

now that he is graduated i am sure you are all wondering what he will do. or maybe you don't care, but i am going to tell you anyway. HA!

he is still doing a few more flights before he is officially done, only about a month or so. after finishing this off he is going to do his CFI training (certified flight instructor) and start taking on students. since the industry requires 1500 - 2000 hours of flight time before considering you for a job, we got a long way to go. when he is done with his personal training he will have 250 hours. ba ha ha, we will be in school forever. he plans on working there with students building hours and still working at delta on the weekends. then he is going to apply for the air force job again next spring in hopes to fly the kc-135 next year, if not then we will try and get a job with an airline. we got a while to go, but it will be amazing and i know he will do grand at it.
