After three and a half years of wearing three stripes (for those of you who don't know, that's the emblems on pilot's shoulders, which in the aviation world mean first officer) Luke is wearing them for the very last time today. He begins his training on Monday to become a Captian, where he will receive emblems with four stripes. We are extremely proud of Luke and all that he has sacrificed to get here. I'll be honest it's been some rough years in this industry, but we've learned a lot and are excited for the future. I love you Luke and am so proud of your dedication.
(Luke says this is a cheesy picture, but I love it. It reminds me of the smile I fell in love with.)
Thank you to everyone who has supported us through our journey. I hope you know who you all are, because there has been many. We could not have done it with out you! Seriously!!!!
Thanks Daddy for all you do!
Most importantly we want to thank our Heavenly Father for taking such good care of us through the years. We know He is not only mindful of us, but has taken care of us time and time again. We love him and are so grateful for all that he has blessed us with.
Thanks Daddy for all you do!
