The Rocket

Ryan went to the store this week and on the list was a new car toy for Sam. He lost his Lightning McQueen during the move to Georgia. He's convinced that all we need to do is go see Eli, his BF from Columbus, and he'll know what happened to it. So since I know Eli doesn't know where his car is, I thought it would be good for us to replace it. However, when Ryan got home from the store, instead of a new car he had bought a rocket. A Rocket Kit to be more exact. Sam was ecstatic, to say the least. He talked about that rocket constantly, and reminded me about every hour that he was going to build it with Dad when Dad got home from work.

Hard at work.

Getting ready to fly.

A cute audience

The flight was successful. Twice, but my attempt at recording them was not. One, I took the video sideways, oops, and the second was a false launch with baby attack:

So, maybe next time I should push the launch button instead of the record button, if Sam will let me.
