And she comes bearing rockets?!?!?!

No wonder Aunt Sarah and Mr. Dave are the coolest. For Christmas, they bought the boys rockets. Real rockets. The kind you put together, light, and watch them launch hundreds of feet into the air until they come crashing down to earth.

Because I was having all the family at our house Christmas Eve, Kevin and the boys joined Sarah and Dave at my mom's house for rocket assembly. Apparently, it took a while, but the final products were three really cool rockets. Dave lit his and it got lost. Greyson lit his, and it came down in one piece within eyesight. The second launch looked similar to the Columbia disaster. Accordingly, Parker tucked his rocket under his arm and decided to save his from a similar fate. Even though the launches were short, I am told they were pretty amazing to watch, and they boys had a fantastic time!

What a cool aunt and future uncle.
