Flying high!

The weather has been beautiful so we had planned to go flying this morning. The kids and I hadn't gone up in the airplane since Jon got his pilot's license. Jon and I were very curious how the kids would handle it.

Getting ready to leave.
Waiting on Jon to do his pre-flight stuff. 
Dominic thought his red "head phones" were the coolest. 
Caitlin wasn't quite so sure. She's so small that they don't fit very well yet. In this picture, Dominic had just pinched her cheeks. And it made her mad. =)
They both did very well. I think the voices in the headsets were fascinating. Dominic kept talking and then saying "Over".
Took some pictures of Jon and I even though we don't have pretty colors on our headsets. =)
New Bern is beautiful with all of the lakes and rivers going through it.
We headed over to our house to see if we could get some pictures. Thought it might be cool to have some air shots for the realtor. Doubt she'll use them, but we'll try.

I love the aerial views! So will you be doing it soon again with the kids? Was it a success?

Yes! We will definitely be doing this again soon. Dominic is still talking about it and pretending to be a pilot. Caitlin will be fine next time if Dominic will leave her alone. =)
