Boeing family day

Every few years, Boeing opens its doors for a family event. The whole family is invited for a day of looking at airplanes and viewing all kinds of airplane production stuff. We also got to see John's office.

Several months ago, when the date for the event was released, we invited John's dad to attend with us. We were so pleased he was able to make the trip and join us for Family Day!

We wandered around for a long time - the kids surpassed my expectations of their tolerance. There was a lot of walking and lots of technical explanations occurring. Even Gemma was on her best behavior, forgoing two naps and delaying her eating times without complaint.

After 4 fun hours, standing in the sun and wind, this mama decided meltdowns were imminent and we headed home.

Sadly, no photography is allowed during the event for security reasons. So the only picture I have to share are part of William and Amelia's fleet of paper airplanes inspired by the family event.
