(This was back in September but I just found these pictures so I thought, better late than never) Before we left Alabama Jason was able to get his civilian fixed wing liscense. GO JASON! Anyway, he planned the most amazingly awesome romantic date night ever. We rarely ever get date nights so this was a HUGE treat. He rented an airplane for the evening and flew us to Montgomery for dinner. It was SO fun to get to fly with my hubby as the pilot! Now I can say from experience that he is a GREAT pilot! LOL. We forgot our camera so all these are from the cell phone, but here are a few highlights of the evening.
After we landed, we started Taxi-ing(?) to where we were parking and I saw a limo sitting on the tarmac and I jokingly said to Jason "Hey look there's our ride! Hahaha!" But as we got out of the plane the driver rolled out a red carpet for us! I was shocked, I had no idea Jason had got a limo!! It was so fun to get out of the airplane and go right into the limo. Neither of us has ever been in a limo before so we were really have fun! haha. Awwwe, so roomy back here!!!
Jason made reservations at a really fun restaurant. It was in the Renesaince Hotel in downtown Montgomery. It was hilarious to watch all the people watching the limo drive up thinking there was somebody famous or important in there. And then two average, normal people get out! We would laugh everytime, "Hahha! Got ya!!" Here is the food we got at this fun restaurant, the portions were small but just enough. The food was AMAZING! Jason had Bison and I had Pork Tenderloin.
After dinner, we jumped back in the limo and the driver took us on a fun little tour of Montgomery. We got to see places like, the whitehouse of the confederate, Martin Luthers church that he preached at, and several other Civil War monutments and historical sites. We went to Hank Williams gravesite and then ended at the Shakespeare Festival. SO FUN! Then headed back to the airport and jumped back in the plane and took off for a beautiful night flight home. The lights of the citites were so pretty and a great way to end a perfect night! It was the BEST date EVER! Not sure if anything could really top this! I'm just sayin!!!!
The next week we were able to get an airplane again to fly to Dothan to see our brother in law, Clint, who was at Fort Rucker for training. We brought the kiddos this time. This was a quick snapshot I got of their experience in the back of the plane, haha. They look less than thrilled to say the least. No, they really did have fun but were very glad when we landed! Haha! That was a really fun trip too, it was nice to see Clint and hang out for a while. We ended up getting stranded there the whole day because of thunderstorms that we couldn't fly through, but we had a lot of fun! It's so cool having a pilot husband! Can't wait for more fun experiences!!!
