Chief's Choice Award
Today Andy was awarded the Chiefs' Choice Award for the month of February 2010. He is the first in his section to receive one. I am so proud to call him my husband. He gives so much of himself to whatever he is involved in. He was chosen because he was brave enough to throw himself in front of a fellow worker that was falling from the top of three flights of stairs. If Andy hadn't gotten in the doorway to brace himself to stop him I don't know where the man would be today. Probably either hurt really bad or even dead. I don't know how he managed to get the strength to stop him, maybe adrenaline, maybe help from above. Either way I am glad they didn't have to tell his family that he had fallen and gotten hurt really bad or that he would never be home again. Here are a few pictures of his awards. He received an award certificate, and two coins. One coin was from the Command Chief Master Sergeant (highest enlisted person in AF Reserve Command) and the other was from his Squadron Chiefs' Group. He could explain this award better than I can of course, but I just wanted to show you what the Air Force gave him for his dedication.
BTW, did I mention that he is the first in his Squadron to receive one of these awards? Yep! We are a little proud ourselves!
Hopefully this will explain why I use the signature I use on here. Andy is a wonderful man, husband, father, and soldier and I want to show just how proud we are of him!

Explore UT
Alexus went on her first GT field trip this weekend. She went to UT-Austin, and got to explore the university. She got to meed the cheerleaders, take a picture with them, meet Bevo, and see the field. She got to do other things but those were what she was most excited about. She has now decided she is going to go to UT and be a cheerleader! Hook'Em Horns! Andy let her pick out something from their campus store and she choose a foam finger. OMG talk about huge! They weren't kidding when they said ALL things are bigger in Texas. You will be saying the same thing when you see this thing. Just wanted to update ya on what went on this weekend. Love ya all, and hope you have a great week.
