Daddy's Little Wingman

Matt has been looking forward to taking Braden to the Miramar Air Show, which is a salute to Marine aviation. Matt comes from a family of Marines and thought Braden would love to see all the planes. It turns out I had to attend a work event, so Matt & Braden headed down to San Diego for a father-son bonding day. They packed up the car, drove an hour, sat in a long line to exit the freeway, finally found a parking space,.....& then had to get on a bus to go to the actual air show. Soooo, Matt toted the stroller, diaper bag, camera (thanks Matt!), & of course that adorable 2-year-old on a crowded bus. They bought some overpriced food & drinks, & finally, along with thousands of other people, they made it to the event. Surely Braden would love checking out the aircraft, seeing all the jets break the sound barrier, and SLEEPING! Yep, after all that effort, Braden fell fast asleep! I thought this was quite humorous, but I think Matt thought otherwise. Well, he did finally wake up & here's one photo to prove he had a fun experience. He's announced to us about 37 times that, "The planes were LOUD!!!"


Future Marine? Not if Mommy has any say in it,....but we'll see.
