Santa Paula


Here was Tom's surprise. The opportunity to take a flight lesson on a Cessna 172 through CP Aviation, Inc. Yesterday, we were off to celebrate his birthday. I'm always trying to out do myself with his birthday. I like making it special for him just because. There are times when I say I'm not going to do anything because he forgets about my birthday but I just can't seem to help myself.
I don't know if I'll be able to top this one in the future. A couple of weeks ago I ran across an ad stating flight lesson for 59.00, I thought WoW... He'd love this. So the night before he insisted on knowing what we would be doing. I gave him a hint that he would see "the big blue..". Kinda of Corny, I know... Anyway, as we were leaving for our adventure I let the cat out of the bag and gave him the ad... He didn't think much of it... So of course, I was a little disappointed but as we neared Santa Paula, you could see he was getting excited. It was like when we were in Hawaii and he was going scuba diving for the 1st time. In the end he loved it!!! This morning he woke up thinking about the take off... Mission Accomplished!!!
Happy Birthday and many more to come...
