WW: Our amazing first experience!

Wednesday, September 30, 2009

The chronicles of my Ordinary and Awesome life, family, and thoughts at www.ordinaryandawesome.com. Ordinary and Awesome is also the Mostly Wordless Wednesday headquarters as well as the home to several original awards and memes.

I saw him and hollered for the kids! We were all so excited. It was right on the door and it was awesome to just sit there and watch it move. I've never gotten the opportunity to see one of them like this so up close and personal so I was just snapping away. The kids loved it! I even have a little video of it moving across and up. it is ever so slow, but we had time.

It went all the way across and then up.
