You rock.

They had to order a special helmet with LED warning lights because they've heard about my rocky start... Been a while since I got on here. Now there is a NSFW option? LOL!

Of course this took a weird turn, even without Sunshine and Martinez :)

They are sweet as honeydew I will have you know! We were just having to explain to Tyler what 'honoring the pilot' was the other day. He was mortified at the concept that I ever would. Not that I would or anything I reassured him...

How old is she? Tell her the wait will be well worth it - I'm told anyway :) Thank you all! They grow up in a blink - believe me, I think about it every day lately! College in two years?! Holy crap! We are incredibly happy, but miss jumping and you guys! Not to worry - family first, but we'll blow it all up soon

Kevin ROCKED that camera! Is his camera alright btw? The music was perfect on the vid btw too. Sam went supersonic when Evanescence came on in the beginning Thank you, and the pilot as well, for diving for her. Those are some incredibly awesome shots! We are so jones'n now!

Who says we're slacking off - did you not see the 2 year old? ;)

and a few more... And thank you John (slotperfect)!! You guys did such an amazing job! I had thought I'd seen all the pictures before we left - no way! Those are incredible. Thank you so much!

Here are some pics from Sammi's first jump today - she's been waiting for 7 years to turn 16 and be able to do it. She obviously enjoyed it Now she's in a bit of a pickle - skydive, or car... Pammi

Old School! Let's streak the quad!

Working for some pain in the ass lawyers up here in Raleigh - so doing pretty good other than that Good seeing everyone again!

Well I'm glad I didn't miss this thread. Happy Birthday girl!

ROFL!! I can't believe I forgot about operation melons! Of course, nights at Raeford are notoriously hazy I think.

Me too Mama! Miss ya all - and the jumping even more Soon, God willing. Until then, I'll keep spending my weekends peddling 'toys'. Ain't all bad Merrick digs product testing Although having 18 'boys' sitting around the house has got to be a little intimidating!

Someone did actually sue God. http://www.ketv.com/news/14133442/detail.html

Isn't that the question we all want to know? Who are we...really. Deep, Remi, deep!

Peek We're actually initiating a new future skydiver this weekend. Our oldest turned 16 (OMG) on the 15th and the boys in Raeford are going to take her for her first jump Sunday If there's any extra altitude, I will have some asses!

Thank you all for your help!! Pammi

HI !!! How are you doing?! Poor Judge is getting old these days - Merrick has been giving the eye to our young lab, Tuffy. It's getting a little creapy We miss ya all too! We'll certainly be back, before too long hopefully. I'm keeping Merrick busy on house renovations right now - we bought a place last summer. That is when he's not teaching our oldest daughter to drive (because she scares the Hell outta me so I avoid riding with her whenever possible!) or showing our little one how to do all kinds of crazy stuff since she takes after her daddy and will try any stunt! He's looking at getting our boy a dirt bike too, so I'm sure visits to the hospital for both of them are in our future. Email me and let me know what's new with you!

Hey Michele! Thank you, you're so sweet! You're going back to school as well? It has changed in the 'few' years since I was in before. At least I have my teen daughter to help me LOL Pam

Very nice! That's exactly how I've been feeling trying to explain it in this paper!

Hey everyone! I've missed chatting with ya all. I'm obviously still alive and kicking. I have a coworker just learning to jump that is just killing me with her stories every Monday. I swear I feel like I need a cigerette after we chat. If I ever get up in the air again I might pass out from the airgasm! Anyway, I could use some help. I'm doing the college thing after all these years and talked the prof into letting me write my persuasive paper on skydiving. Basically, I'm going to try to convince her that we're not all crazy, there are some safety precautions and she wants me to show her WHY we do it. It seems obvious, but apparently I need citations to back up my point. Can any of you direct me to some really good articles I could use? I'd love to find some stuff about the psychology behind skydiving, accomplishments like Jump for the Cause or anything compelling you can give me a link to. Thanks! Pammi

Dude, this was first posted in 2001! How'd it get back up here? Hey this Dorothy got out of Kansas as fast as she could. Don't make my mistake, though, and go to Oklahoma next - do over I'd skip it and come straight NC!

I work with 'big brother' watching nowdays so I don't get much chance to get online. You guys are too filthy for viewing at work! All is WONDERFUL! I've totally domesticated Merrick Pammi

Poor thing :( Def'ly normal - and the first of MANY fevers. Maia just got over running 103 for 4 days. Roseola. They get the most interesting crap at daycare She's back to her old crazy self now tho. Pammi
