The other day, a package arrived.  Inside, was the neatest thing.  Chris and Don, Joel’s mom and step-dad, had really listened to Joel in January when he said that one day, Joel wanted to buy the boys leather aviator coats to match the one that he had. (Joel received a replica of the one his grandpa James had worn during WWII as a graduation present).  Anyway, Chris and Don surprised all of us with those jackets and wow, they are super cool.

We immediately put the boys in them and oh, they ran to the mirror and seriously posed for a good 5 minutes.  Nicholas would not let us take his off even though you could tell he was getting a little warm.  They love their new coats and, they will be able to fit in them for at least another year, maybe two if we are lucky.

So, without further ado, here are the boys, all dressed up and ready to fly.

Next up – aviator glasses.
