Halloween 2021

Pet the Jet
We had a fun opportunity a few weeks ago to see, upclose, the most amazing aircraft in the United States Air Force! The F-15! I have to say, my husband has the sexiest job in the whole wide world. And the sexiest uniform! That big green onesie? ? Yeah baby! It was so fun to get […]
