3-2-1 Blast Off!
Owen received his first model rocket for Christmas and we finally got around to putting it together this past week. I am not sure who was more excited, Owen or myself, as this is one of those projects that I have really been looking forward to since becoming a parent. I loved building and launching model rockets as a child even despite watching my first rocket slowly descend back to the ground in a ball of flames.
Owen is very detailed orientated and loves building (you should see how fast he can get though a box of Legos) so I was confident that he could handle this with a little assistance. Owen and I worked closely glue, paint and apply the decals in hopes that he will be able to work on the next a little more independently.
Launch day was a success as all three attempts were flawless. Owen had a great time and is looking forward to starting the next build.
