First flight ever!!!

🛫🛫Off to a great big adventure with Daddy!!🛬🛬

Part of our goals here were to teach them to travel well, so Daddy allowed lots of time for teaching in the airport as they went along...

😍😍😍

Snack time 😋 Thankfully, they were very prepared for this!  

Now this part, Steve was hoping for and it worked out perfectly!!!

A true cockpit tour by a very gracious Captain!! 

He was so kind and talked to the kiddos about everything!  They have been studying flight for the last month in preparation for flying, so it was really neat to have a hands on, real life connection...Homeschooling at it's FINEST!! 

Natalie even got to make the flight greeting and announcement!  

They landed safely in Colorado and headed to get their rental car!  

Was this it?!  😆😆 Oh, he wished...
