USS Midway

We recently went to the USS Midway Museum. It was so awesome! I had never seen an aircraft carrier up close before. It is SO big! It was really cool to see how the sailors lived (small quarters) and worked on such a huge vessel! It was extra fun for us because Max's grandpa was a test pilot in the Navy and lived on an air craft carrier, so it was fun to imagine someone we know living on one. The boys got to sit in some of the airplanes and helicopters, and it was really fun, interactive museum.

So excited to see all of the airplanes!




Max thinks his grandpa flew this airplane (correct us if we're wrong?).

Family Vacation

For our family vacation this year, we decided to drive up to the Sacramento area where Max's family owns some land. It was such a fun week, full of fishing, swimming in the lakes and rivers by their house, and camping under the stars. For some reason, I didn't take very many picture, but here are some from Fairy Tale land.

The best family photo we could get! This was taken on his family's property. It's so beautiful there!
