Spouse Flight

Last Saturday I got to do one of the most amazing things ever in my life :)!! I got to go on a spouse flight on the KC-10!! This is the aircraft that Kyle works on and I got to see what my awesome hubby gets to do when he is in the air! There were two planes that went up that day I was on one and Kyle was the boom on the other one (so I got to watch him refuel our plane). My plane had 19 passengers and (lucky me) I got picked to sit in the cock-pit when we took off!! It was sooooo amazing...I have always wanted to do that :)!! I even got to wear a head set like the pilots haha!! We came up right under the plane that Kyle was on and I got to see him refuel :) I could even see him in his little boom window, we were so close that we were able to wave at eachother!! It was funny because while Kyle was doing his thing the guys on my plane were all tell him hi over the radio ha I don't know why they found that so amusing but it was neat ha!

I totally have a new respect for what Kyle and all men and women in the Air Force do :)!! Military people are awesome and they would die for you so thank them :D!!

Well here are some pics of my adventure...I am sorry they aren't better..I forgot my camera so I had to use my cell...but it's better than nothing ha!

This one wasn't from the Spouse Flight but I like it...Kyle and I in the cock-pit of a KC-10!
I wish it wasn't dark...oh well ha!


One of the Pilots (I can't remember names sorry).

So many buttons....

Me in the Cock-Pit :D!!!

My view from the Cock-Pit..that is Kyles plane in the distance!

Kyle refueling us (this is also from the cock-pit) crazy huh?!?!?!

This is the view that Kyle gets all the time..we are refueling his plane! It seems like you could just fall out that window haha it is some clean glass/plastic haha!

Me with the boom and that's my neighbor Christine in the back!

Visitors

So this past couple of weeks Kyle and I have had some visitors. First Chelsea and Jon came to see us and we took them all over ha! We went to NYC, Statue of Liberty (from the Jersey side), and Philly! We also went to the Grounds for Sculpture which was....interesting ha! We all had fun though! :)
Then Kyle's dad came for a short visit. We got to relax a bit with him because he had already seen most of the sights. We did go to Philly though and I finally got to see Independence Hall! It was awesome! Just to say that I have been in the same room where the Decleration was signed is amazing..ha I am such a nerd I know but I love it! I am hoping that we can go back on July 8th when they read the Decleration in the square to the public!! They dress up and make a whole show of it..I am sure that it will be a ton of fun! We also went to the farmers market where I found a beautiful flower plant to put in my garden (but more on that in the next post)!
Also, Kyle and I just celebrated 2 wonderful years of marriage. For our anniversary Kyle booked a night at a Bed and Breakfast by the Jersey shore and a couples massage and pedicure which was just total bliss! I highly recommend a massage if you have never had one...they are sooo worth the money! I told Kyle that we will have to invest more into them ha! Our first time at the beach was a lot of fun although, we will be sure to put on lots of sunscreen next time ha! We both looked like lobsters when we got home but it was worth it ha!

Kissing the War Goodbye sculpture. It is HUGE!
That's Chelsea's head on the bottom right ha it shows how huge this piece is!


Chelsea with the Tiger ha!
