My other funny child

Today started earlier than normal for Eli and Elle. Eli decided late last night that he needed to bring the van back from SLC. The red car is down here for some maintenance and the blue car is in the process of being sold :) So Eli being the sweetheart that he is said he would take Elle with him for company and give me a day of relaxation. So at 5am we got up and got them off to the airport. It was heavenly to be able to sleep and relax longer than usual! Blynn got off to school.
I checked in with Eli later and he had a funny story for me. Eli has been working on a friends plane and it needed to have a test flight so Eli planned on doing that as soon as he landed there. Greg (friend) is a super nice guy. Elle sat in the back and put her headset on. In some smaller planes, the mics will stop working when someone else is talking. Control tower, pilot etc. Not this plane. Elle loved listening to herself talk. So she was doing plenty of it!! Greg would ask her to be quiet nicely and Eli had turned around and unplugged her headset a couple of times! Salt Lake is class B airspace so you are controlled by the tower where you go etc. It was difficult to listen to tower and Elle. Greg didn't know Eli had been unplugging her headset and he turned to Eli and said, "You might want to unplug her!"

Eli looked at him and said, "I have 3 times!!"

Greg kept calling her sweetie and I don't think she was very fond of it :) She was hularious. Singing and just making tons of noises and stuff into the mic. Eli would move her mic down away from her mouth. But she would move it right back! :)
Sorry there are no pics......I'm getting on that!
