CONGRATULATIONS!!! BABE!!


Eli just passed his test to become a Certified Flight Instructor!! WHA-HOO!!! We missed him badly over the holiday weekend, (He had to fly to Carson City, Nevada to take it) but we are super excited for him!

This certificate allows him to teach new student pilots. He can do this anywhere, right away.... but he has signed on to teach at the school. So now we are praying that there will be plenty of students in Cedar so he won't have to go to Vegas, Tuscan AZ , or Florida to teach! Yep Florida! This is pretty much the end of the road school wise. He will take the CFI II test to be able to teach more. By teachin others he can claim the hours to build his time up so we can get on a major airline!!

I'm so proud of ya babe!! He studied tons, had major lack of sleep.....(poor guy is sleepin on the floor tonight at the school!) and yet he still plays with the girls and has time for us! I love you so much! Time to party!! CONGRATS!!!
