flying with Daddy!

Rollin and Vivian absolutely love their Daddy!
And after today they have more proof that he really is that cool.

Last year me and the kids went and watched Marshall practice take-offs and landings.
Since then we've been promising them that they could 'some day' go for a flight too.
Today was that day!

Rolli and Vivian watching Daddy pre-check the airplane.

They (we) could hardly wait to get in the plane (Cessna 172)

EXCITED!!

Buckled in.

Head sets on.

READY for TAKE-OFF!

...and...

We are in the air!

Flying!

Whoa!


Cool!

Daddy's favorite flight crew ;)

Me and Marshall :)



On our way up river to Grandpa and Grandma's house!

"Hi Grandpa Bob!"

If you look REALLY, Really, really close you may just see
Grandpa Bob, Grandma Jean, Aunt Lindsey, Grammie Kathy, Steve 
and Aunt Janice and Uncle Bob too!
Thanks for the TP sign!

"Hi Grandpa Bob!"

Just like we could hear everyone on the ground yelling,
I'm sure everyone on the ground could hear us yelling too ;)

There is Grandpa Bob and Grandma Jean's house 
with Aunt Janice and Uncle Rob's house next door.
This picture really shows just how hard we where banking.

One last look at Grandpa's house before we head back to base.

Marshall's favorite co-pilot ;)

My favorite pilot ;)

An absolutely beautiful day for a family flight over the valley we call home.

Ready to land.
These two short-on-attention toddlers got over the initial excitement 
about 30 minutes into our 40 minute flight.


Today's flight couldn't have been more perfect!
Rolli and Vivian where 100% comfortable sitting in the loud, rattling, flying airplane.
You wouldn't even know that Rolli woke up feeling sick, what a trooper.
They figured out the head sets right away and we where all talking back and forth with ease.
Just the first of many flights to come!
