{Hill Aerospace Museum}

On Friday we took a field trip to the Hill Aerospace Museum. We had never been and with a house full of boys we couldn't pass up the opportunity to see jets and helicopters. Plus with this being the month of July and having just celebrated Independence Day it was also a good opportunity to explain in simple terms about the military and the sacrifices they have made for our country. There was a lot to see and we were overwhelmed with the size of the different aircrafts. It is a bit of a drive but totally worth it.

The twins really liked the helicopters. They always get excited when life flight flies overhead so it was fun to be able to get up close to all the different helicopters and airplanes.

Jackson was all about the fighter jets. This was his favorite. We got a special treat....while we were there it least a half dozen jets were taking off and flying right over head. Although they weren't exactly close, they were close enough to see and they are SO loud. We LOVED it!!

Looks like so much fun! Josh would love this.
p.s. I also feel like I'm 16 when it comes to Twilight. There's something about them! I'm just bummed because I will be in Germany when Breaking Dawn comes out. I don't get back until August 7th!!!
