Leavin' On a Jet Plane

I'm just getting around to posting this now...
In May, our homeschool group
took part in the
Young Eagles Flight Program.

The kids attend a one-hour "ground school"
and then they get to take a 30 minute flight
with a pilot.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay cool.

Nathaniel, Isaiah, and Linnea
participated.
And it's FREE.
again: waaaaaaaaaaay cool.

The boys are shown getting in the blue plane
and Linnea is in the red.
She even got to fly the plane.

I must say that it was a bit difficult
for this mama's heart to have
three pieces of my heart get on a plane,
taxi, and take off.
And not come back for a half hour.

Accidents happen all the time.
I was so glad when they came back
to earth safe and sound!

Needless to say,
they had fun.
