There was housework to be done...

Grocery shopping that needed doing...

An appointment with the dentist...

And a ride in a helicopter...

You know blogging has become a part of you when your dad says 'you'll have pictures for the blog!' in a really excited tone.
I consider it one of the perks to my Daddy's job.

Hey, I think I see our house from here!
I have to say, the whole time I was there, I couldn't help but think of various scenes from Bachelors and Bachelorettes past (after twenty-one seasons, it infiltrates your brain)...
Now, I have been in many an aircraft carrier (The Lisa Marie, Air Force One... maybe you've heard of those two), yet I had never been in the air before today.

"Hmm, if only Ed were The Bachelor..."
Overall, the helicopter was quite a fun experience!

Reginald Kitty is not amused. Probably because he didn't come with us.
I couldn't resist, this video had to be included...
