Fire Academy Graduation

In December Matt graduated from the UVU's RCA (recruit candidate academy)- aka: fire academy.
Not going to lie, I was one proud wife! He worked his butt off this semester and definitely learned a lot. Class consisted of Monday, Wednesday, and Friday nights from 5-10 and all day Saturday's ALL semester long. Talk about lots of lonely nights for me..and of course busy nights for him. At graduation he received the Physical Fitness Award with a few of the other guys along with his RCA certificate.

Earlier in the semester they did a "Family Day" at the academy. Family of the students went down to the campus BBQ'd and then watched the guys in action. It was awesome to see them do what Matt came home talking about each day after class. It was great to see him doing something that he enjoyed so much.

Building they practice on.

Everyone who came to support Matt

Matt is now on to new adventures and is working towards getting into the Paramedic Program. I'm so proud of him and all of his accomplishments! Plus, who wouldn't want a firefighter for a husband?!? :)

Love you Matt!
