Let me introduce you to my brother.


He is a 2nd Lieutenant in the Army National Guard, runs marathons, does triathlons, climbs very large mountains, finished Army AIRBORNE School, spent a month in the woods without a shower, lived in Africa for a summer, ran the Army 10-miler in D.C., and survived falling out of both of the trees in our front yard when he was six. Oh, and he's single. (wink, wink)
Feel free to leave him some love. He'd like that.

Looks like fun. My dh does that for work and loves it. I swore off that sort of thing after I had H...one of us needs to stay on the ground. :)

Kara said...

Dude, Rachel. I'm single. Except I can't see the video, because my computer is spastic. Sad times..

Sounds like a good man. ;)

Wow! that is so cool- one of these days I will go sky-diving, but until then- that is the first video of it I have seen. That is so awesome :)

Have you ever heard of or read Wild at Heart by John Eldredge?
Anyways... it's all about guys being like your brother! haha
My husband loves to do stuff like that.

Well, I am not single...but your brother sounds like a pretty cool guy :) :)

Molly said...

That looks like fun, if not utterly terrifying! Then again, your brother is clearly brave, from what you posted about him. I just stumbled across your blog, you've done some seriously fabulous stuff! As a college student I am seriously envious of the laundry bag, functional yet adorable!

My husband just finished airborne school as well! He is in the Army as a 2nd LT :)What date did your brother finish?

So um, how old is this brother of yours? Sounds like a real nice guy and the whole jumping out of planes/living in the woods thing is too cool for school.

Your lil bro looks like good man, you'll have a sis in low sooner (man like that just can't be single for long time ! LOl !)
