Heather's fist helicopter ride

WOW!! Andrew got to take me up in the helicopter for the first time on Friday. It was totally AMAZING!! I can't hardly put into words the feeling you have when your husband is flying you around!! He is such a great pilot, the ride was totally smooth. I thought that I would be nervous because there aren't doors, I get motion sick, and that he would be nervous because I was with him. He was so confident and flew so well. I knew flying was hard but until you see it, you just have no idea. His hands and feet were in use the whole time. We flew from Brazos (his school in Bruceville) to Gaitsville (another really small town). Even though the scenery in central Texas isn't much to talk about, It was still really fun to see it from the sky. While we were flying, we saw birds flying right next to us, a hog and her babies, and an old bomb testing and storing site. It was an experience that I will never forget. I can't believe he gets to do that every day! I have to say that I am very proud of my pilot!! 

                                            

Do you see what I am talking about? It looks really hard
