Lots of Updates

Zed: He has a whole week of flying. He's got his phone turned off so he can focus, but in talking to friends who are there with him he is keeping up and doing well. So far so good. By this time he has 3-4 of his 12 flights done. If the weather continues to cooperate with them he should be finished with IFS a day or two before Thanksgiving. That means he'll spend the holiday with his sponsors (family friends) and then drive home.

Sam: I turned 22 this past weekend. I spent it with my first sponsor family. They had a little party for me (burgers and cheesecake...my favorite!) and my parents had sent some gifts for me to open. I also finished up my class. I got a 100% on the practical (computer based) portion and 100% on the written portion. I have two days of work this week and then on Saturday I'll be flying to Colorado for the long weekend (Veteran's Day so it's a 3 day weekend). I'm super excited to see Zed. I'll get as much information as I can out of him about IFS so I can catch you all up.

Baby Davies: She is doing well. She likes to kick her momma in the bladder, but I've gotten used to it. She's at the 26 week point so she's getting big weighing over a pound and measuring over a foot. She still has no name and we probably won't decide on one until the day she's born. We are registered at Target and Babies R Us for anyone who is interested.

The World: Yesterday was election day. Not everyone was happy with the results, but they are what they are. Zed and I are responsible for defending those things which were chosen. All part of the job.

Look for an update either this weekend or Tuesday from the weekend. I hope everyone is doing well and no one has lost total faith in this country.
