Fun times

This is Eric.
One day, Eric had to play ultimate frisbee for PT (physical training) because that's what all the other Airmen wanted to do instead of going to the gym.
So Eric started playing the game, and was having fun....
Until him and another guy decided to catch the frisbee at the same time. Unbeknownst (is that a word?) to the other guy, whilst he did catch the frisbee...he also caught Eric's arm....and ran with it.
It resulted in a possibly ripped rotator cuff, shoulder sprain and lots of pain (not so lucky) but also lots of percocet and flexeril (very lucky!) but also resulting in me having to drive him to work at 530 every morning (not so lucky) but also possibly removing a deployment to Iraq after Christmas (very lucky).

The shoulder injury hasn't stopped us though.
Yesterday was my neice's High School graduation.



What a beautiful day, with my beautful family.
After the ceremony, we went to the MGM and ate at the Rainforest Cafe, which is awesome because it rains inside, but not on your head, but there is thunder, and that was cool.

(Allie looks scared!...)


(Chase looks excited)

(Some of the fam at the dinner, we had the whole upstairs to ourselves, which totally rocked)

(Allie walking through the MGM after we saw the (lazy) lion's habitat)



(But this part was the most fun..waiting at a complete stop for over an hour on the 95 when we only had 1 more mile to our exit, and there's a car on fire up ahead....ah Vegas, it's good to be home)



*update on my driving skills*
..I am, so far, successfully learning to speed, follow too closely, change lanes without signaling, change lanes in the middle of an intersection while speeding, tailgate, roll through stop signs, cut off the car behind me and justify it by doing a 'blink and go' move, and run yellow lights. I'm not being honked at, pointed at, flipped off, or shouted at with 'sweet nothings' anymore! Ah Vegas, it's good to be home.
