Hey guys!! Long time no post- it's been a BUSY couple of weeks!! I left off talking about how amazing graduation was and how relaxing our weekend in Tahoe was. After that.. things got busy REAL quick! J, my family and I drove down to our hometown on Tuesday to get all of our things that were still down there. On Wednesday, June 21, J and I got married in a small intimate ceremony with some of our closest family members and friends. It was perfect. J and I have been together for 12 years now (since high school), and with everything coming up, we decided we couldn't wait any longer. We're still going to have our huge ceremony, but now we can officially begin our lives as Mr & Mrs Officer J 😎.
Anywhooo haha, we made the long drive back to our house on Friday and started the dreadful task of unpacking. Luckily we had my parents & sister, and J's parents in town with us. We spent that whole weekend unpacking, and on Sunday, J got EVERYTHING ready for his first day at the office. He had to be dressed and in the briefing room by 8am, so because of traffic, J wanted to leave by 5:30am ish. His area office hosted a little welcome lunch and I thought that was really nice! I got to meet the Captain, and different officers in charge of FTO and so on. My week was spent with my sister, who's staying with me for a couple weeks, unpacking and trying to organize everything. Today though, I started my new job, so it was nice to get away from unpacking. J's week was designed to be low stress and get them ready for their first day on the road. They did a lot of paperwork, re certified in PMA and the different guns, and drove around the area to start to get familiar with it. J's first day with his FTO is Sunday, so I know he's excited/ nervous!
To the new graduates- keep your heads up! FTO is going to be tough, but you didn't work this hard for the past 28 weeks to not succeed! Remember everything you learned, and have each other's back!
💚 AJ
