Airfield Boise Love

Boise's airport is right next to the interstate, with the military airfield beside the airport.

For my air-craft-loving boys this is a huge bonus for us living here!

I still remember when Eli was just over a year, probably 15 or 16 months old, and we're were driving down the interstate and a HUGE aircraft starts it's decent/landing literally right next to us. That child was in heaven. Eyes so wide, and bliss written all over his face.

And oh! how many times we've seen A-10 fighter jets zipping through the sky! Typically 4 together--which is awesome, by the way. Isaac loves those crafts. During our first month living in Boise we were driving around town, by the interstate, and 3.5 year old Isaac starts to yell: "A-10! A-10!" Matt and I were like, "Okay... okay...," then we look up in the sky, and lo and behold A-10s! Then and there we dubbed Isaac a genius.

And the little passenger planes, and the big freight planes, and jets, and the black hawk helicopters, and the medium commercial planes. Wow, makes driving down interstate 84 (or is it 86?) enjoyable!

(On today's ride Titus was all smiles when a Southwest aircraft came landing "next" to us. "Eh-pain! Eh-pain!" was his exclamation of choice.)
