Grandpa Larry was so thoughtful and amazing to organize a flight for Rylan and Jason with him and his friend Bob in Bob's Beechcraft Bonanza the day before we headed home (Larry is a Civil Air Patrol pilot, so he has many pilot friends and loves to fly himself). Rylan was absolutely thrilled to go on his first private plane flight and was wide-eyed the whole time! Thanks to Grandpa Larry for the wonderful experience and to Bob for taking them up!!

Ready for take off!
So excited!
They flew north along the beach from Naples to Sanibel on a gorgeous, sunny day
Near Sanibel
Back to Naples... Allegro, the shorter, square condo (at the bottom of the photo, third from the right) is actually the one my family lived in when I was little!

Cleaning off the bugs!
Helping to close the hangar door... what a morning!
The previous day, we met Grandpa, Grandma Deb, and Auntie Kimmy at the Cheesecake Factory for dinner... the grandpas had fun entertaining Ry Ry and Mei Mei while we waited for our table! We had a great meal together.
Airport fun with Jason while waiting for our first plane home
Stretching our legs during our layover in Atlanta
Very cozy in our three seats on our final flight home! I was stretched out to Jason's lap, and the kids are laying on both of us, peacefully napping after all of the adventures on our trip. :)
We were so glad we could make the trip and had such a wonderful, memorable time... many, many thank you's to our family for everything! We love you!!
