High Five for Friday

It's the weekend again!  Hooray!  Here's the highlights of my week...

1)  Crazy Flight:  Last Sunday morning, I headed out to the Downtown KC airport with a neighbor to take my first flight in a propeller, 2-seater plane.  Our neighbor, John, owns the plane and flying is one of his hobbies - as it performing tricks in the plane, such as loops, hammerheads, etc.  Another check off the ol' bucket list!

I was a bit nervous but it was sooooo worth it.  Chad knew he couldn't stomach it, so he stayed home.

Here's the plane

 
Me in my seat - ready to go!



We took off just North of Downtown.  Here's a quick video of us flying over the city!

 

We did a ton of hammerheads, loops, flips, etc.  So much fun!!!  
Here's a quick video of us doing a loop.  Crazy!


2)  Auntie:  I found out this week that I'm going to be an Auntie again!  Yahoo!  I'm going to finally look forward to Christmas this year!

3)  Cardinals:  Wednesday evening we headed to the Cardinals & Royals game at Kaufmann Stadium.  Seems like forever since I've seen my Cards play!  We had great seats!

 4)  OPP Pool:  I'm so loving our pool!!  I haven't lived in a place that has had a pool since I was like 11 or 12 years old!  We've been there the last couple of weekends for a little R&R.  It completely relaxes me from my crazy work weeks!  Love it!





5)  Working from Home:  Just a quick shoutout to my boss and place of employment for letting me work from home occasionally when the situation calls for it - like today.  My FIL came into town today.  Since Chad and I have been busy all week, working from home allowed me to do some laundry and do a few things in between meetings.  Much needed on a day like today!  So appreciative!


Hope everyone had a good week!  Cheers!
