The Wright Siblings

Kent asked for a remote controlled airplane for his birthday. A very normal request from a 7-year-old boy. Problem is...the birthday boy turned 7 in January. Not the most ideal time of year to fly remote controlled airplanes in Omaha, NE. So it sat in Dad's office until a few weeks ago. The wind made the possibility of an ideal test flight less thant desirable, but we took on the challenge and hit the wind head on! Unfortunately so did the airplane. Again, and again. And again.

Before Dad could get it out of the box, a real live non-remote controlled airplane flew over head.


Kent is thoroughly impressed. "Cooooool!!!"

Can you read the label here?
"High Speedy Moder Techniques Superior Performance"
Moder?? Huh?

Sporting her toothless grin proudly.

We are go!



That lasted all of about 5 seconds. Let's try again.



Take 3...




And once more...



Go fetch, Fido.

Love backlighting. And I kinda like my punkin, too.
