My Own Private Pilot


















Ryne is officially a Private Pilot!
Today he finished up his last flight for this summer and completed the course for his private pilots certificate. (I just learned that pilots don't have a liscence, they have certificates) I am so happy for him because he always works so hard. This past week especially has been grueling as every free moment (literally) that he has had, has been spent preparing for the number of tests that he had this week. So congratualtions Ryne! It is cool to say that I have my very own Private Pilot!
*pictures from top to bottom:
Riley helped me make some airplane cookies A.K.A. "santa cookies" for Ryne when he got home. That was the note with the cookies and two of the multitude of mini airplanes. It took me forever to make and ice all of those little suckers
That is Riley wearing my new apron. How cute!
The next two are Ryne from when he got home today. Again, How cute! -atleast I think so :)
Next a picture of Ryne and I. Way to go babe, I love you!
And Last but not least, that was the face that Samuel made when Ryne told him his daddy was a private pilot. I think he was proud too :)

Now that you have a private pilot in your family, you should hop on a plane and come see me! And those cookies look delicious; you should bring some when you come. =) Congrats to Ryne!
