Highs and Lows

We got up early and drove to the Lee Summit, Mo airport for the Young Eagles Program. Once a month they give free rides for kids ages 8-17. Cass and Dylan rode in a 1957 two prop plane. Of course I was a little nervous letting my kiddos go up without me. (they were a little nervous also since this was their first time in a plane)

Taking off

Oh thank goodness! They are landing!

They had a so much fun!

Cass and Dylan with their pilot! They each got a Young Eagles certificate. This was the high point of our day!

Now with the low! Dylan's football team was ahead the whole game except for the last 3 minutes and then they lost. We are so proud of Dylan because he had one of his best games. The other team was about to make another touchdown and Dylan was the only one there to tackle the player. He held on to him and wouldn't let go and the player fell to the ground. It was so awesome to see Dylan's teammates patting him on his helmet and telling him good job.

Then we came home and Michael grilled chicken in the rain. I thought this was an adorable picture.
