helicopter date night


We had a date night with Cody and Jana! (Kyle's brother and wife) We enjoyed a helicopter ride over the strip and then dinner and a movie. It was so fun! Too bad the copter didn't keep flying all the way to Rome or Paris...but the whole night really was dreamy.



Here's Kyle right after we stepped off the helicopter. I loved feeling the power of the blades whip my hair around. Kyle and I laughed later because he remembers ducking under the blades. As if they are going to get us! It seemed natural to duck -just to be sure. Isn't that what you see in the movies? The weather was beautiful for flying, not a gush of wind or a rustle of leaves. A calm, calm night.





Here's Cody and Jana on the runway. We had great company! What a classy, classy couple. We're glad Jana made it through without any motion sickness. Just to be safe, we made sure they had front row seats far away from OUR LAPS :). This helicopter ride was a surprise for them - they didn't know what we were going to do until we pulled into the airport.











I had a blast getting glammed up for the date. Kyle took this picture of me outside of Cody and Jana's house before we took off.








My amazing friend, Sloan Hadfield helped me with EVERYTHING. She was Miss Nevada several years ago. She does make-up for weddings, she models, she's gorgeous. She knew what she was doing! Our kids played nicely together at her house while she helped me get dressed-up and did my make-up. I absolutely LOVED it!!!! It was fun to be brave and do something different.



It was a fabulous night OUT ON THE TOWN. Later we ate at Bahama Breeze and saw the movie New Moon.
