More Helicopter Fun

We were on a helicopter kick after the ramps and wanted to have more fun with them so we took them with us to Barretarre one day while we were picking some people up from a trip. This hill where we launch our trips from was a perfect place for these. 
It has a steep enough slant on the road that makes it really fun for the boys and then the ramp going up to the dock is steep enough at the end that makes them slow down before catapulting off into the water :) 
They were so cute this day. They wanted to dress the same with their shirts. They are also wearing their new kicks I got them when I went to Florida. Emit's are Superman and Joss has Batman. They are the little ones that have lights on that back and they think they are the coolest thing in the world. We have officially entered the SUPERHEROES phase with these guys and it is really cute. 
Especially when they run around in their Hero Undies and pretend to save the world from the mean villains. 
Sticky Note: We had a night that we had to go out after we were in our jammies and getting ready for bed. I had to go meet up with a guest for a few minutes and Dallas was out on a trip. We couldn't get our truck to start (and it was dark so I didn't really feel like piddling with the battery connection--that was the problem) so I asked Ann Ligon if we could borrow her Jeep. 
Borrowing their Jeep is always a big deal to my kids because, well it is just a different car and it is super exciting. Add that to the fact that it was dark AND I gave them each a glow stick to bring along for the ride and you've got yourself a Mom of the Month Award :) 
They kept saying  "Look at all the others cars still awake!" We stick to bedtime pretty regularly around here, so they thought it was the coolest thing and gave me all kinds of hugs and kisses for it! Truly, truly... the Little Things :) 
Ta-Da!!! The Shed is finished (except for a few minor things--that we still haven't finished)! We still have to paint it too, but we are not in any hurry to work on it anymore. 
Still working on finding homes for everything, but it is coming together nicely!
