In mid-May, we went to see Brad graduate from Ranger school. He made it through all the different phases on his first try, which is pretty impressive. We are really proud of him, and Jackson had a blast at the graduation ceremony. During the ceremony, the Rangers demonstrated several of the things they do during their training. Jackson kept saying, “play more! play more!” We got quite a few good pictures of the training exercises, but I’m only going to share our favorite because otherwise I would post too many pictures.
In this picture, the helicopter picked up the four guys and then flew off with them. It was really unbelievable.
During the graduation ceremony, the Rangers went to their families to have their Ranger badges pinned on. Brad’s fiance (he proposed a few weeks ago – yay!) pinned his badge on him.

I love the picture of Jackson dancing! Looks like an Irish jig of some sort. Congrats to Brad on his Ranger graduation and on the engagement! Very exciting!
