Leaving on a jet plane...

Could eat him up too
Enjoying from the sidelines. His day is coming!

Headed for the runway

Braving the cockpit...
He only holds hands with his mommy this way. I plan to be his best girl for a long, long time.


He was more nervous than I expected. The plane was very loud and he was really trying to take it all in...

We saw three planes take off as we were literally a field back from the runway.

Holding Mimi's hand. She sure is special to Eli.
Eli got the surprise of his life this past Saturday when we took him out to the airport to see Pop-Pop's plane. Pop-Pop belongs to Mac, but he was so gracious to share him with us! Eli is obsessed with airplanes. Uncle Evan noted this past weekend that he can spot one no matter how tiny they are in the sky...Eli didn't actually leave the ground but he did take several trips around the tarmac. Here are a few pics from our special field trip!!
