11 Year Check-Up

Adley is growing great.  He is now 58.75 inches tall (76th %), he grew 2 inches this year.  He weighs 85 lbs 10oz (63rd %), he gained 11 lbs this year.

He's excited to be 5 ft. tall - only 1 1/4 inches to go. :)

Two shots today - so a nice relaxing afternoon is in order.

Air Expo - Air Force Base!

Our Air Force Base friends invited us to an EXPO.  How Cool!

We all got into a Humvee!!

We got into a cargo jet!

And was able to sit in the pilot seat.  Jeremiah is enjoying with Joelle!

Adley is piloting next.

Followed by Nathanael!

The boys buckled into a helicopter!

And the other buddy too!

Us and our buddies salute in front of the helicopter. 

Jeremiah modeling in front of the pilot suits NASA pilots wear when they fly deep into the atmosphere.  We got to see the ship too.

There was no emergency.  The boys decided they wanted to tour the ambulance that was there for emergencies.  The Medics were happy to let us poke around.

What a FUN day.  I realized I did a bad job on photoing the outsides of these cool planes!

Love,

The flight buddies

The Kingdom!

We have created a fire pit kingdom in our backyard like Grampie's!

We cleared the brush beside the shed - it's so fun and nice with our Tiki torches.  We love it.

Camping Adventures!

We had a blast camping Labor Day weekend.  Boy was it cold but we didn't let it bother us.  We arrived Thursday evening for dinner and some biking.  On Friday we biked a lot, there were wooded trails that were so nice the whole crew biked them - now that's a lot of cousins and adults.  Friday night we were ready for a 40 degree morning.  It was chilly - and didn't really warm up.  Saturday was nice, more biking and fun.  It was going to rain a bunch Saturday night into Sunday so we all packed up and spent our last night as a sleep over at Grandma's.  It was so nice to sleep warm, and have pancakes for breakfast, and not have to worry about wet camping gear.

Cousin Fun!

Love,
