Flying with Shoes on

Here are just a few more additions to the house.

Josh and I made it to Target today and got a few last organizational items for our closet. The biggest issue with our closet was the shoes. Josh and I both own a lot of shoes and keeping them in a big heap has been an incredibly big hassle. So we bought this to help with the problem.

I'm so exited to have a more organized closet!

Also, we added this to our bedroom today.

In case you can't tell...it's a poster on our bedroom wall of the inside of a plane. Josh was given that today and told to study it because he's going to be flying on Tuesday.

For those of you that don't know Josh is in school to be an air traffic controller. He is majoring in Aviation Management and plans to attend CTI school after he receives his degree. This semester he has decided to get his private pilots license. It is quite the investment (both time and money) but I just know he is going to love it.  It has been fun watching his interest in planes grow and develop. I love hearing him talk about planes. Every time we see a plane he tries to name it :) It's really adorable. Anyways, to get his pilot's license he has to be trained and put in a lot of hours flying. It's just over 50 total. He will spend the first couple months with a pilot in the plane and then he does 10 hours of solo day flying and 5 hours of solo night flying. Yikes. He also has to do a 150 mile trip solo. Pretty scary, but he seems to be really excited about all of it. He will be flying in one of these...

Cute right? He goes to the Provo airport three times a week and gets to fly in this. I seriously laughed when I saw it. It's so tiny! It might look big in the picture but just to give you a better idea, it's 7 ft tall and only 24 ft long. I suppose that's a good place to start though :)

I am so proud of him!
