About Me and My Loves
Howdy Y'all and Welcome! I have been married to my studly hubby for almost 5 years now; who is an energetic, outgoing, handyman helicopter pilot. We recently made our first big move cross country from Utah to Texas with our now 20mo. old "Rae of Sunshine" Azure. We love experiencing anything and everything and holding nothing back. We love dreaming and creating things of all kinds together. I hope that this blog will help our families back home keep up with our busy life, and maybe inspire some along the way...from family to home, money to food, holidays, travel, photography and crafts. this... this is my life!.... Enjoy.

You want him to do WHAT?!...












So Saturday I chose to go watch Brett fly. It was so cold!! But the sunrise was amazing!! But while I was watching him perform his traffic patterns above the airport, all of the sudden he landed the helicopter and his instructor got out and started walking towards me while Brett flew off!! His instructor Ken told me that he was letting Brett perform his solo flight, FOR THE FIRST TIME! He felt he was ready, and capable of flying by himself! It was nerve-racking, but amazing to see. The first pictures are of Brett preflighting the helicopter, and of the new blue chopper that the school just got in. They are now running patriotic... RED, WHITE and BLUE.

Jeff and I took a night flight over Vegas in November and I loved it! I thought of you actually when I was taking off. I bet you just love it! Jeff made the comment on how he wished he knew how to fly. I think I'm going to keep him grounded with the occasional flight with people who actually know what they are doing.
