January Visit From Uncle Stephen

 The beginning of January, Uncle Stephen came to visit during his Christmas break.  Of course, it snowed and was really cold, so we went to the Air Force Museum on base.  There are 2 parts to the AF Museum; one off base where it has a ton of history and planes and the other one is on base where you can either take a bus to (if you don't have a military id) or drive to.  The museum on base has the presidential planes and the "experimental" planes.  It is huge.  Caleb LOVES it - mainly because we let him walk and run around.

 You are able to walk into most of the presidential planes which is really fun to see how the insides have changed over time.  There was even FDR's plane with the elevator you could walk through.
 This is to give you an idea of how big this museum is.  I believe it is 2 hangars large and the other museum is 3-4 hangars.  A must see in Dayton!


We had a good time with Uncle Stephen and we think Stephen enjoyed hanging out with us :)  This trip in particular, I realized how different a married life with kids and a college life differ.  We had a great time though learning new card games from Stephen, playing with Caleb who is never still and showing Stephen around Dayton a little bit.
