Air Show

We took Mitchell to the KC Airshow today. We had a really good time and he loved watching the planes! It was GREAT weather here - 80 degrees and sunny.


Mommy and Mitchell had to get a picture by the powercat plane from Salina.

Daddy and Mitchell played with the propellers.





Some kind of miliary helicopter (if you can't tell, I'm cluless about these things)



Right before the exciting, LOUD F-16 exhibition, Mitchell fell asleep. He jumped a few times when he heard the earth shattering fly bys, but he never did open his eyes! How is this even fair? I tried tip-toeing into the room next to his the other morning to iron a shirt before he woke and as soon as I reached the top of the stairs, he woke up and said "Mama????"!

In other news.....we're painting! Jacob and I spent last night and tonight post-Mitchell hours paining our entryway and up the stairs. I'm not a huge fan of the color, but am convinced it's going to grow on me! Almost our entire house is pained in shades of brown now, so I wanted something a little different. I decided to try 'wheat', which I pictured being just a little yellower than the traditional khaki, but this specific wheat shade is a bit more yellow than I'd hoped. I'll post a picture when we finish. Hopefully it'll only take one more night!


All in all, we had a very productive, fun weekend! Jacob is out of town next weekend for a wedding, so Mitchell and I are going to have to find ways to entertain ourselves :) In fact, Jacob leaves Wednesday and returns next Thursday. Long trip :(
