Flying

Right now Carson absolutely adores planes and flying. He loves all planes, but his favorites are the F-16, the Hawker Hurricane, and the Spitfire. Earlier this year Jason and Carson went back to the Air Force Museum in Dayton, which he loved, and then back in May a friend who has her pilot's license took the kids and I flying in a Cessna 172. Needless to say Carson was in seventh heaven!

 

 

 

 

July Birthday Girl

In July we celebrated this little one's birthday, and although she is not so little any more she will always be my baby. Our sweet Corinne turned 6 and will be starting first grade this fall which has left me wondering where the years go.

Our little cutie had several birthday celebrations the first of which was the week before her bday and involved painting pottery with her BFF, Sasha (who moved to Indiana earlier this year - Corinne misses her terribly). We followed up the painting with lunch at Cici's Pizza.

  

The following week on her actual bday we made our first visit to the American Girl store at Easton in Columbus. The girls were in heaven and had fun shopping (Corinne with a gift card and bday money and Jordan with money she had saved). Then we headed to the Lego store across the street so Carson could spend some money he had saved, and then headed to California Pizza Kitchen for lunch where the girls were beyond excited to discover that the restaurant has AG doll high chairs.

 

We finished out our multi-week celebration with two family parities with all of the grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

We are so blessed to have Corinne as part of our family and had a blast celebrating her birthday!
