OshKosh

We had the privilege of traveling to Oshkosh, Wisconsin to the annual AirVenture with some great friends this year. We flew in an Albatross airplane, which is a Coast Guard search & recovery sea plane. We had 7 adults and 2 children with us, plus all our luggage and necessities of a week's stay. Even with all that stuff, we had tons of room to get up and move around in the plane and the kids could run around & even put their mats down when it was time for their naps. We had a great time!
This post is a little long because it was hard for me to narrow down which pictures to put on here. Every picture reminded me of a great memory.



In the plane, waiting for takeoff.
All strapped in. Ready to go.

So Sweet!

Playing with her puzzles.
She loves her puzzles. She could do this for hours.

Landing in Dubuque, Iowa.
It was gorgeous here. Lots of rolling GREEN hills.
Beautiful.

Arriving at Oshkosh.
It was a little cool outside, so Trey, being such a little gentleman, let Brylon
wear his flight jacket.
Our two Aviators!
Patiently waiting to go outside.

Riding in a racecar at one of the exhibit halls.
She'll tell you "I have a need for speed!"
We are in soooo much trouble.

She is going to have to learn some new moves to stay up with him.
He can JAM!

in front of the airbus.
This picture does not do this monster justice.
Can't believe that much metal can fly in the air.
Amazing!

Sitting in front of the flowers at the hotel.
My favorite picture.

Riding the 4-wheeler at the exibits.

Time for a nap.
Not sure what we are going to do when she outgrows this stroller.

Trey & Brylon
This must be "the life".

This is an airplane they raffled off to benefit a pilot who became a quadrapalegic after he had an accident playing on a playground with his children.
It was the cutest thing. Brylon loved it.
Maybe her daddy can make her one.

Brylon riding in another little airplane.
Momma's airplane is behind her!!!
Okay, I need to wake up now. HaHa

On the way home.
Puzzles agian.
