Dobbelaere Family Moments: April 2014

During the girl's first spring break, we decided to take a mini vacation to Chicago. Before the trip we kept two secrets from the girls. We were flying and Papa and Grandma Elaine were going to be there as well. The flight was almost spoiled by me talking to my mom about the morning off and her bringing us. When asked where Grandma Shelley was bringing us, I replied, oh we are taking a bus. This caused them to be super excited...yup to take a bus. So that morning when we showed up at the airport, that brought on even more excitement.

As we enter the plane, the pilot took time to invite the girls into the cockpit. He showed them lights, how the plane was flown, rang some bells and a variety of other things.

The ride itself went just perfect. I knew my girls would not be scared of anything when they raised their hands as we hit turbulence and they acted as though they were on a roller coaster.

After their second surprise of seeing Papa and Grandma Elaine at the airport in Chicago (which brought on more smiles), it was on to the Museum of Science and Engineer.
