Matt Reenlisted in the U.S. Air Force!




This is Matt's reenlistment oath. He reenlisted on April 16th, which was his six year anniversary of when he entered basic training. It seemed to be an appropriate date. Anyway, now the U.S. Air Force owns him for another 4 years! Matt has also been accepted to cross train into the geophysics career field within the Air Force. He's pretty excited about it, and is looking forward to starting his training in January. Go Matt!

After Amanda posted the above info I thought I'd expound on the new career I'm cross-training into. This comes from "usmilitary.about.com" and is a technical summary of what I will be doing...

"apply leading edge physical sciences to perform data collection, analysis, observation, study, experimentation, acquisition, maintenance, research and development, fielding of prototype and operational electronic sensors and systems on specialized geophysical, nuclear radiation, chemical, biological, electro-optic, radio frequency, infrared discrimination, radar, and rapidly deployable and fixed airborne materials sampling platforms; and process and analyze scientific data; derive, develop, and report first-hand signature information to national command authorities and war fighters."

... sounds cool! I can't wait!

We're dogsitting for a friend, and we just had to catch this on video! It's not too often that something makes Darren laugh this hard for this long. He had already been laughing for several minutes before we even turned the camera on. Who knew that feeding a dog could be so funny! Anyway, enjoy this little clip. We thought it was too funny to not share! Oh, and please ignore me making dinner in the background. :)
