We have awesome friends. Awesome friends who do amazing things like build and launch their own rockets! Really cool rockets!
Lawson has been hearing stories about these rockets and has been asking if he and Daddy could build one sometime. So on Sunday, Eli came over with a brand new kit just for Lawson! (Eli has been building rockets with his daddy for quite a few years. He knows what he's doing.)
He was pretty proud of his bright orange rocket!
So Monday morning, we started out our 4th of July celebration by shooting off rockets! (Mitch is the rocket builder extraordinaire!)
Lawson was pretty excited that Ezra was going to be there, too!
Pushing the button...
It went pretty high! I lost it in the clouds shortly after this...
After the recovery...
This crew was pretty good at recovering all the rockets...
Mitch and his brothers have a lot of fun with this...
These two didn't have a rocket, but Mitch was still nice enough to let them push the button...
Thanks, Boese Family for including us in your fun tradition!! We had a BLAST!!

Yes. Thank you Boese's. It was a blast! And Amy, I LOVE the pic of Ezzie with his hand on Lawson's head. Too cute. Oh, and the one of Jobie is funny!
that reaches some NEW level of COOL!
love Lawsons face when he's looking up at his friend while making the rockets.
I see space camp in L's future ;-)
Wow!!! Those rockets are awesome!!
I love the first few pictures of Lawson getting help from his friend. :o)
Eli was so good to help Lawson. Those were some big rockets.
I love this post and ALL the pics! Thanks for joining us. It's so much more fun for the rocketeer's widow to have her friends there too :)
Oh, and by the way, Mitch is going to be so impressed with this post. I'm not sure I'll ever measure up now.
My boys would be SO jealous!! Looks like it was a lot of fun!
