Mig's Orientation Flight

The Civil Air Patrol Mission:  Transform youth into dynamic Americans and aerospace leaders

Part of fulfilling this mission is providing cadets the opportunities to fly and learn about flying planes. 

Mig had his orientation flight in October. 


The Civil Air Patrol flies Cessna planes with an adult squadron leader.




He teaches them how to do the preflight checklists and more. 





They take their flight over Denton County and to Gainesville to fuel up and then back to our home airport. 



Once they get up to 2,500 feet, the leader lets the cadets take the reigns. Mig at just a few days over 13 years old flew a plane!!! That just blows me away! 


Mig is really enjoying the program and all of the opportunities it provides!

Faith is 12!!

 

Twelve years and half a world away, this little spunky girl was born! 



Faith is full of energy, and joy! 








She lives life to the fullest and enjoys every moment!







She has a heart of gratitude and loves to give gifts!



When I asked what she wanted to do for her birthday pictures she said she really wanted to take pictures with Boba Tea. 



So I bought a Boba for her and one for me and we headed to the Denton Square. 




She looks so grown up!!!





Faith continues to work hard and persevere! 












She is silly and spunky.







We are blessed to have her as the baby of the family! 


And SO happy to help her celebrate TWELVE!
