standing outside the fire...

my brother andrew has always had a knack for aiming a hose so it's only fitting that he make a career out of it and become a fireman!! he successfully completed his RCA training and we were proud to attend his graduation. we all had a little fun pretending to be firemen ourselves, who knew aiming a hose could be so much fun!!!!

(mom was having a lot of fun)

every group creates a "plaque" about their team and their time together. some of them were really cool. Andrew's was group 54, and I must say they are going to be one of the cooler groups with a awesome plaque. however, the skull somewhat frightens me, if i saw that coming to my rescue I might weigh my options a little more heavily.

(the angel of death!)

congrats andrew!!!!

humourous(sp)?!

if you are in the need for a good laugh, I'll allow you to have one at my expense (usually I do it on accident, this time I'm actually consenting to it.) Below is a letter I wrote to my cousin in my grade school days (you can try and figure out my age but I won't willing divulge that info since i was a little to old to be spelling so very poorly). James says it's all the funnier when read in a "kidrock/joe dirt" voice. enjoy....
