Aerospace museum

I took James, Samuel and our good neighbor friend, Josh, to the Aerospace Museum on July 29. This far afterwards I can't remember whether Samuel's wardrobe choice was planned, but I love it!








"Please Do Not Climb on Aircraft." We did, however, see people climb on this sign on the ground.



I love this shot, particularly the way Josh is leaning his head to walk underneath the plane.




Col Gail Halvorsen, known as "The Chocolate Pilot" following WWII, visited my children's elementary school in 2012. (I wrote about that here.) His story is incredible, and the more I learn about him, the more I admire his humility and generosity of spirit. I hope my children understand how amazing it is to have met him, and I hope they appreciate the sacrifices soldiers the world over made. Sadly, there aren't too many WWII veterans left.





Samuel loves learning about geography and flags of the world. He studied this display of pins in the gift shop most intently.
