Better start saving now....

For flight lessons and aviation school!

Brody and I joined Ryan today on a flight to Tulsa and Oklahoma City. He had to do a few things for a guy that he flies for, and he asked us to tag along! I know how much Brody loooves airplanes, so we jumped at the opportunity. We met Ryan at the Camden airport this morning around 8:30. We waited in the lobby of the pilot's lounge while Ryan got the plane ready and buckled in Brody's carseat. Then, we boarded the plane! Brody was sooo cute sitting there with his little headphones on his ears. He wouldn't wear them long, but he did leave them on long enough for a few pictures. He liked that he could hear Ryan's voice over the speaker in them.

"This is 1-2-1, Charlie Foxtrot, Over"

"Help! I am being attacked be the headphones!" (Maybe this is why he didn't like them...)

The flight was about an hour and a half, and Brody loved every minute of it. He looked out the windows, played with the curtains, took off his shoes (and socks), and played with his trains. I let him suck on dum-dums during the takeoff and landing to help with his ears, but he never acted like they bothered him.

We arrived in Tulsa about 10:30, and one of my friends from my Mommy Board that I met in St. Louis in January is from Tulsa, so she met us at the airport with her little boy Ben! It was so great to see them again, and I couldn't believe how tall Ben was! He made Brody look like a shrimp. He and Aimee are just sooo sweet, and I am so glad that we got to visit with them, even if it was just for a few minutes. It is so much fun to have friends all over the country!

Aren't they cute? Like they are just so excited to finally see each other again!

Brody's turn on the horse....

Thanks so much for driving out to see us Aimee!!! We will be sure to try and tag along on another trip to Tulsa!

After we said our goodbyes, we loaded back up in the plane and flew to Oklahoma City. We had a little while to spare before we were supposed to meet whoever it was we were meeting, so we got a car and went to eat at Chilis. Yuuummm!!

Then, it was time to head home again.

I just love this picture of Ryan and Brody. Thank you, Ryan, for letting us tag along. We had so much fun today!
