Time is flying...

 Birthday and tree...check...

We went to the Museum of Flight in Seattle this week. On the 1st Thursday of each month it is open for free and it was a surprisingly light crowd to begin with. We have been meaning to go for months. I figured that the kids would get tired pretty quick as most museums are geared for a more mature audience but they really had some great exhibits that were kid friendly. Cockpits you can climb into, VR hang gliders, and lots of buttons to push at kid level that do things in the exhibits. In the space exhibit you can pilot shuttle landing, and climb all over a real Skylab prototype, and do a VR space walk.  

Daddy had the best score on lunar lander for the day but Mommy was a better hang-glider pilot. Daddy really liked the B-17 exhibit and seeing the original 1916 Boeing barn. Mommy liked seeing the photos and stories of the women of the WWII era working on the production floor.   

Band of bubble busters...

 Thanks Uncle N and Aunt A for the package. The kids even loved the packaging...the little weirdos went crazy popping the bubble wrap after eating the sausage and apple jelly. The girls wore their flower clips in their hair today for church.

Workin' on a crazy idea with the kids...

Mommy told Madison we were going to ride a ferry this week and she thought we meant a real "fairy". I don't think she was too disappointed though because the trip with our friends from Bremerton to Seattle was a lot of fun. None of the photos turned out but the city lights were really fun to see and it was a warm night on the water.

We went to a Nativity program in Maple Valley tonight and really enjoyed the music, activities, and the dress up photo booth. All the cookies were gone thought so mommy told Millie she would make it up to her tomorrow. We will post the picture once they load it online.
