Take Flight...

What a great weekend we had at my house! You already know that we love Saturdays and this Saturday was an especially fun time :) We started off at t-ball for Asher's last game. He plays on the Rockies in the YMCA league here in Georgetown. After a great game (he hit the pitch both times instead of having to use the t) the kids all enjoyed pizza and then getting their medals and a t-ball related book. We were so blessed to have such a great coach (Coach Ryan) and wonderful parents to share our 1st t-ball experience with! I can't wait to post some of my pictures!

After that, we headed over to Cynthiana Airport. Did I have to catch a flight? Sort of...McKenna and Asher got to ride in an airplane as a part of the Young Eagles program (thus the title of today's entry-it was our favorite part of the weekend). They had a ton of fun! I was a little worried that they would decide at the last minute that they did not want to go, but they had a blast! It just so happened that a little girl from McKenna's kindergarten class was also there to ride and didn't have anyone to ride with. So she hoped in line with my crew and off they went! About 15 minutes later, they climbed out of the plane and yelled, "Oh my gosh! I'm doing that again NEXT year!" What a hoot! Again...pictures to come.

It is so nice to be home for the summer. Ian is so close to walking and he talks all the time, "No," "Stop" (those are directed towards his big brother), "Mama" "Dada," "Oww!" and my favorite, "Uh Oh!" McKenna and Asher have started their summer reading (yes, I am one of those Moms, but it is fun as we get involved at the Library).

I did want to share a couple of other family activities, I found this week before I close out for the day.

GattiTown is having its first family fun night at the Lexington location. It will be Wednesday from 5:30-9pm and in addition to the usual arcade and buffet, they are having a movie and popcorn. I found this on facebook.

Also for those that live in Lexington, you may want to go for a ride on the Colt Trolley. This is a trolley that rides through Downtown Lexington for free. What a fun idea-especially if you are already Downtown to visit the Library, Explorium or the Farmers Market.
