Congratualtions Airman Lefler

Airman Ian Lazarus Lefler

The Happy Graduate and his Beautiful Wife

It's hard to believe that Air Force Boot Camp for Ian is over. Words cannot express my pride in my son, my daughter-in-law Shayna, and my country. I've been so emotional about various patriotic things... I cried during the National Anthem yesterday at the Pirates baseball game! Even when he told me that he received his ORDERS to go to Mississippi tomorrow to start his training for air traffic control... it's not an assignment... it's not school... it's ORDERS! Wow! For some reason this makes it really final... he is owned by the Air Force for the next six year.

The Icing on the Cake or the Tree on the House... whatever...

The Only Logical Way to End a Stressful Couple of Months... is it over, yet?

Kaycee's Going to School!!

Congratulations to Kaycee. She is starting her first day of college on Monday! She's done it before and has more than 15 credits. Now she is going to finish it up! Woohoo!! Another graduation in the family next year. Sooo looking forward to it! One class at a time. One assignment at a time. Stay balanced. If I can do it (and I did) you can do it! Just glad you didn't wait as long as I did!!

Kaycee has done some amazing things this year. Now she's going back to school!

OK, Charter College... here comes Kaycee!!

Jay is Flying High in Wyoming!

Jay Enjoying Beautiful Wyoming

My guy Jay is going to diesel mechanic school in Wyoming. Wyotech has an honors program. They select a few high performing students from each class and set them apart. These Eagle Tech's wear gray shirts, go to special meetings, and have additional duties. When recruiters come to the school each quarter, these guys really stand out because they have the highest grades in the class, outstanding attendance, and... well... gray shirts. Please note, Jay is wearing a gray shirt... don't let that look on his face fool you... he really is brilliant... and adorable!! Of course you knew that!!
