3..2..1..Blastoff

So every morning since he bought "the rocket", Flay would anxiously look out the window at the flag. This Sunday was the first morning there was no wind. So of course, we had to launch the rocket as a family. So we all piled into the car and drove down the street to an empty field. Getting it all set up was a family affair. Yes, Ashley is wearing her shoes on top of her sleeper.
Andrew and Flay, prelaunch. It went straight up to the air and came straight back down again.
Poor Ashley tried to keep up, but just couldn't.
Andrew was very concerned when he found the rocket broken. Flay showed him that it all went back together quite easily. Andrew was frantically asking for more. He loved it..

No blown off fingers...that's always good. And now it's a family thing, not just Flay and Andrew. Love it!

Sorry! Major type-o that made the post sound really perverted. Glad everyone is still alive! Zoey found a rock today that she is calling Andrew. She has been talking and singing to it all day. Words can not describe the heartache she felt when she learned that Andrew is not coming to Grandpa "Mcqueen"'s house. ( She calls him that because he has a new mustang that she thinks is mcqueen.) Tears a plenty. And then it got really bad when she found out that he wasn't going on the boat either... Bad day for Zoey.
