Planes at Night

We went to our second night fly last month. We skipped last year because we didn't have a night fly plane anymore, and because I was ~35 weeks pregnant and couldn't imagine being awake past 10pm. We still don't have a night fly plane (yet), but we should have one next year.

Aaron took the plane-in-progress with us and worked on it while we waited for it to get dark.


We also had a BBQ dinner and spent all night trying to stop Nora from eating rocks.


We also learned a valuable lesson - don't take anything to a potluck that you are not willing to bring back home uneaten. We were specifically asked to bring watermelon instead of the cake we were planning on. Not only did we get stuck with the whole darn melon, Aaron didn't get his sour cream cake!

It's so pretty to watch the sun set behind the airplanes.




We also brought glow sticks for the kids. I put the bracelets around their upper arms and it worked super well at helping me keep track of where they were. We found a glow sword for Zeke and he loved it. Nora loved it too, so we probably should have bought two of them!
