For the last couple months Abe has been going through tank training school. He has really enjoyed this training so far, and usually has long 10-13 hour days. He has really enjoyed learning about all the different parts of the tanks, experimenting and doing actual hands on projects with the different kinds of vehicles, going out in the fields and shooting all the big guns on the Abrams tanks, and will soon have to go out in the field for a couple weeks, where he will be able to drive the tanks and will really get to know them. Abe thoroughly enjoys what he's doing. It's fun for him to be learning about something he really enjoys. Abe is excited for his upcoming deployment to Iraq this coming March, where he will get to go out after all these years of school and training, to work with the tanks and serve our country. I am so blessed to have Abe. He is very intelligent, knows exactly what he's doing and what he wants, has a good attitude, is brave, and I am so happy to be his wife. He is a blessing to me and is such an amazing man.
Abe's good friend, Nick, took this picture of him while working on the tanks. You can tell he enjoys what he's doing!
Oh Grace, I love it when you post. You and Abe are such a terrific team. You're both so blessed to have each other. What would he do without you?
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this. It's fun to see.
I love your new theme!
ReplyDeleteAbe, you look downright Handsome.
ReplyDeleteGrace, I think you are one amazing wife. You are helping Abe become the best person he can be... and vice versa. I agree with my mom, "terrific team." Yea on going to water aerobics... just watch out for those swimming pool hair balls. Those scare me more than cobras, ligers, Hitler, ghosts, and anything else scary and bad.
Abe you do look good! Grace I don't really have anything more to add other than what Mom and Cali already said. But great post!
ReplyDeleteAnd I think hairballs are scarier than Hitler too, Cali.
Hello Grace and Abe! Thanks for the update. I'm so glad I found your blog. I would have loved going to Kirtland-- prophet or no. It's fun to hear about your lives.
ReplyDeleteAnde-- I've never seen a hairball in the swimming pool. But I will certainly watch for them now!

Yipee......GRACELAND....I have this figured out!
ReplyDeleteI love these pictures of Abe.
After learning that my Grandpa did his training there and trained on tanks also, I can't help but think about him. He loved the tanks so much. I told you before, the fact that he was in a tank saved his life.
Love you guys!
