...is a day for the books. It was a milestone in more ways than one for my little family of two.
March 9 marked the 1 year anniversary of the day Brian and I got engaged AND the day we started living 5 states apart. Yep. It's just as romantic as it sounds. B proposed 4 hours before I was on my flight back to VA from FL, and 1 hour before he had to leave for work. He's a man of many talents, timing isn't one of them. It was a bittersweet day, but an amazing one all the same.
Fast forwad EXACTLY 365 days later, Brian selected his flight platform on March 9, 2017. B found out that he will officially be flying C-130s for the the USMC!! C-130s were his first choice and I'm so thrilled for him that he gets to fly his dream aircraft. I haven't heard him this excited in a long time. Warms my heart to see his hard work finally pay off. I only wish I could have been there but the pic and video I was sent will have to do this time. Soon he'll be off to TX and I'll still be here in VA. The geo-bach timeline is winding down though...even if we still have about 1.5 years left of it!
