the kids take to the sky...


We had an amazing opportunity in August to go see the Blue Angels in Seattle, have a BBQ on the run way, and hang out in the cockpit of our friends plane! Ok, I have to be honest I complained about this trip the entire way there lol. I don't see the excitement of planes barely missing each other in the air! The kids however totally soaked it all in! And totally loved being pilots for the day, they do make awfully cute pilots I must say :) And it turned out to be a super fun day! 


 So darn cute, she can fly my plane any day ;)


Brayden's drinking a little Dr. Pepper before he takes flight! You can see Makenna's Dr. Pepper already took effect!


"Too cool" for pilot's school! :)




Ben was very serious about his responsibilities! Proper pilot lingo and all!


He messed with many dials and fingers crossed Jim got them back where they belong!


This is one of those pictures that I can see how much these two really do look alike at moments!

the not so warm beach....

We found this beach out in Oak Harbor after church. Super fun and beautiful but you'd never see me in this water! Seriously if you say beach it better be warm! This was like visiting the Artic but atleast the kids thought it was the best thing ever.



Makenna's face as she feels the water temperature!


As they all fully experience what it must've been like on the Titanic! ;) Ok maybe not quite that cold!





One of my favorite pictures of my boys


The view of this was far more breath taking than the ocean I must say. 

And as you can see I stayed safe and warm on land for this one!
