We got a phone call from Uncle Cory today to see if we wanted to walk down to the park to shoot his rockets off. Aaron jumped at the chance to shoot things up into the sky. I figured it was a good excuse to get out of the house to enjoy the beautiful spring weather we were having. So we bundled J up into some outside clothes and went on our way. I love the fact that we have a park/playground down the street from the house. I am definitely going to be taking advantage of it when Jackson gets older. We walked down with Brittney, Cory and their dogs Troy and Millie. When we got to the park Aaron and Cory were like little kids, pulling out the "engines" and packing the little parachutes. Brittney, the kids and I made sure we were a safe distance back. We added an extra 10-15ft when we heard that Cory had purchased the wrong size engine for the smaller rocket. One would think that buying the wrong size part would stop them from launching them...but no! They just shoved it in as best as they could and figured if it exploded then it exploded! Besides scaring the crap out of poor Millie (who tried climbing into the bottom of the stroller), it was a wonderful day!
