It was pretty cool, but I don't think it accomplished Todd's ultimate goal, which was to convince me he needed to get his fixed-wing license. I just don't see it as a practical hobby. Maybe someday when we're millionaires...

Learning to Fly
For Mother's Day, Todd bought me a flight school lesson. Yesterday, Todd, Hazel, and I all went down to Reid-Hillview Airport in San Jose, and I flew a Cessna 172 with the two of them in the backseat. I know, crazy adventurous. Those Bonners.

Hazel loved it. She kept saying "Let's fly," all weekend long. She sat in the back with Todd and ate a snack and looked out the window and sang songs and was a really good sport.
I guess she was still pretty hyped up from it when we got home. We ate lunch and put her down for a nap an hour later than usual, thinking she'd conk right out. 45 minutes later, we heard her bedroom door open. Out she ran, down the hall towards us, giggling and BUCK NAKED! She took off all her clothes and her diaper, then climbed out of her crib. What the heck? I couldn't stop laughing and Todd had to be the one to take her back to bed.

Hazel looks so dang cute in that last picture!!
Ok, so I didn't see you at church yesterday and so all through church I was wondering if you'd crashed, and how we would find out...like if your emergency contact info was for your parents in UT then would they call the Bishop and he'd make an announcement? Or what? SO RELIEVED to find that it went smoothly and awesomely!
that is so crazy. John keeps trying to talk me into flying lessons and he spends all his spare time picking out the airplane we are going to buy someday. I must say you are much closer to it than we are.
Dang Angie, you are quite adventurous!
And, i have a feeling Macey and Hazel will be great friends one day. For 2 nights in a row, when we've checked on Macey before going to bed, we've found her sleeping in just her underwear. :)
Those crazy Bonners! Man, I'm jealous!! I'll bet you are a "born to fly" pilot! Right?? Love the pic of Hazel in the airplane.
