Browns update


Hello everyone, just wanted to give you all an update on what we're doing. As I probably told most of you at the beach, I was very close to getting hired by the Killeen, TX fire department and going through its fire academy. Well, God was graceful and everything came together and I got the job! I am about to finish my second week of fire school. The information I've learned has been very interesting. So has the physical torture, err, I mean physical training. No, I haven't learned how to slide down a fire pole, nor have I haven't driven a fire truck sounded the siren. I feel very fortunate to be married to such a wonderful woman, who gets up with me at 5:30 a.m. every morning, makes my breakfast and lunch, has dinner ready when I walk in the door around 6:30 every night, and washes my uniform clothes every couple of days. I'm sure some of that is the McNutt in her. You may wonder what a fireman wears. Well, above is a picture of what is known as "bunker gear." Yes, it is very hot, and we wear it while doing lots of pushups. I look forward to adding updates (and maybe a pic or two when I can sneak one) soon. Hope everyone is doing well.


Our sincerest congrats goes out to Marty and Julia on the addition of Logan to the family! And we hope everyone else in the clan is doing great as well. Take care.

Wow Jared, Cool outfit. Looks like what we call a raincoat in Virginia where it actually rains. I am really delighted you made the cut. I think this is probably a pretty dangerous job which is why Jennifer is being so nice. The insurance probably doesn't kick in until after the training period. But from one Kinky fan to another, keep us posted on all the details. Love, Ann
