Texas Military Museum

On Saturday we took the kids to the Texas Military Museum at Camp Mabry in Austin. Rick had a talk about medicine? (bad wife, have no idea what he talked about) to the young marines. For those of you in Ausitn with boys, this place is a must see. Jonna I was thinking of you the entire time, your boys would love this place!!
Their 5th birthday party theme is a camo theme, so I took them there to do a mini photo shoot for their party invitations, which came out so super cute!! They were all dressed up in their "bad guy" clothes (what they call camo). I can't wait to post the invitations I designed after the party. Here are some photos we didn't use.
Aren't they tough?!
Carson loved the section where you could dress up in their gear. The others, not so much.

Lots of model planes to see. We are proud to say we (Rick & I) have been on the C130 TWICE! Yes thanks to Jeremy who is a pilot to that big monster. We were able to go inside it outside of London England and the boys were able to go on it in North Carolina when we visited them. Very cool. The C130 is the one that can hold a helicopter. They drop supplies to the troupes, bring them home etc.. I can already tell these boys will be big history buffs like their daddy. This week at the library we are going to check out books on the military and war, requested by Carson.

Thanks for sharing this museum. Cooper is a big military buff, so I will have to take him some time.

We were just wondering if you could walk up to the helicopters and airplanes at Camp Mabry. I'm sure Jackson would love it there...
