Aviation Museum

We took a day off from the sun and went to Pensacola and visited their Aviation Museum. The kids loved it and Collin was in heaven!!!

Playing in the kiddie area.

Collin could have spent an hour in each airplane. HE LOVED IT!!!

There were airplanes and helicopters everywhere. It was a really awesome place!

They all got to enjoy this one at the same time.

Can you find Anna?

My sweet boys.

Check out their poses.

They actually got to spin this cannon around. It was pretty cool, but nerve racking for mom and dad.

We stopped and ate at their fun restaurant and Benjamin surprised us by eating his pickle. He's never eaten one before and is one of the pickiest eaters around, but is getting so brave here lately.

Our family!

The boys thought this camo helicopter was pretty cool. Aren't their big brother/little brother matching shirts adorable?

Peek-a-boo!

Benjamin and Anna running to tell me about getting to ride in a flight simulator with their Daddy. They were really impressed!

All three kids had a grand time in this one.

We had to make them get out. It was adorable watching them pretend and be in their own magical worlds.

This was another cool one.

We showed up just in time to go on this tour that they did for the kids to teach them about how airplanes can  fly. A lot of the content was way over Benjamin and Anna's heads (the other kids were at least a couple years older), but they did so well. They both payed attention the whole time and seemed to really enjoy it.

At the end of the tour they got to each fly a little airplane in this contraption, which was a big hit!

Posing with the Blue Angels.

The kids really love flags and were pretty excited to see this huge one.

They also got excited by the large propellers on display.

Everyone had a great time looking at and learning about the space exhibits. Here they are on the moon. : )

There was an actual a piece of the moon on display! Benjamin thought it was pretty neat that Dave and I hadn't even seen that before.

Benjamin loved this one with the painted face.

Our little tiger lover thought this was pretty cool and requested her picture be taken.

Dave wanted to get a picture with him and the kids under this airplane's wing, but Collin tried to tackle his siblings instead which started fits of laughter and made for no chance of a serious picture, but definitely a funny moment!

At the end of the day we loaded up on a trolley to go see the big airplanes they have outside.

We had a great day!
